Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight

Denim naturally stretches slightly with wear. Try wearing them for a few hours to allow them to conform to your body. If still uncomfortable, consider the next size up or a different fit style.

Color fades unevenly

Wash inside-out in cold water with like colors and a mild detergent. Minimize washing frequency and avoid harsh detergents or bleach.

Zipper is stiff

Gently try to work the zipper up and down. A small amount of graphite from a pencil can help lubricate the teeth.

Seams feel rough

This is a common characteristic of raw denim. The seams will soften over time with wear and washing.
