FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for intense swimming?
Yes, the integrated brief liner and stretch fabric make them suitable for active swimming and water sports.
What does the 4.5-inch inseam mean?
The inseam length refers to the distance from the crotch seam to the bottom hem, resulting in a shorter, mid-thigh length cut.
Can I put these in the dryer?
Yes, but use the low heat setting to protect the polyester material and elastic fibers.
Do these shorts have a back pocket?
The design features hand pockets; please check your specific model, but they are primarily designed with hand pockets for casual convenience.
What is the benefit of bluesign certification?
It indicates that the textile manufacturing process has met rigorous standards for safety and environmental impact.
Troubleshooting
Drawstring feels loose during activity
Tie the drawstring in a secure double knot before entering the water to ensure it stays in place during high-impact movement.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are not using fabric softener, which can leave a residue on synthetic fibers. Try an extra rinse cycle to clear any detergent build-up.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: the elastic waist allows for a quick pull-on, and the drawstring can be cinched to match your waist size. Compatibility is broad, as these are designed for general water activities. To ensure the longevity of your garment, follow these care steps:
- Machine wash in warm water (40C) on a gentle cycle.
- Always wash with similar colors to prevent dye transfer.
- Use a mild detergent only.
- Do not use fabric softener, as it can degrade the quick-dry performance.
- Tumble dry on a low heat setting.
- Do not iron, bleach, or dry clean.
