FAQs
What is the inseam length of these watershorts?
The inseam length for these watershorts is 13 inches.
How do I determine the correct size?
Measure your child's waist circumference. The sizes correspond to: XS - 22", S - 24", M - 26", L - 28", XL - 30", XXL - 32".
Can these shorts be used for competitive swimming?
While comfortable and functional for general swimming, they are designed more for recreational use and may not meet the specific requirements for competitive racing suits.
Are the pockets secure for small items?
The side pockets are standard slip pockets and are not designed for securing valuables during intense activity. They are best for light items when relaxed.
What does 'quick-drying' mean in practical terms?
It means the fabric absorbs minimal water and releases it efficiently, allowing the shorts to feel less heavy and more comfortable shortly after exiting the water.
Is the material suitable for sensitive skin?
The shorts are made from 100% Recycled Nylon, which is generally considered safe for sensitive skin. However, individual reactions can vary. Always rinse after prolonged exposure to chlorine or salt.
How should I care for the drawcord?
The drawcord should be hand-washed or kept on a delicate machine cycle. Avoid high heat when drying, as it can damage the cord and its fibers.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawcord is not twisted and gently pull to adjust. If frayed, consider a repair.
Pockets feel heavy when wet
The mesh drainage system is designed to allow water to escape. Ensure the mesh is clear of debris.
Shorts feel tight after washing
Check the care label and ensure the washing and drying instructions were followed. Avoid high heat drying.
