The shorts are made from a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, designed for durability.
Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?
While the fabric offers durability, the polyester blend might be less breathable than 100% cotton in extreme heat. The loose fit aids in airflow.
How should I clean the shorts?
Machine wash cold with like colors, do not bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry.
What does 'double knee' mean in the product name?
It refers to the extra layer of fabric added to the knee area, significantly increasing durability and resistance to wear in that high-stress zone.
What kind of fit do these shorts have?
They feature a loose, straight fit, which allows for greater freedom of movement.
Does the product come in other colors or sizes?
This guide specifically covers the Beige XL variant. The product may be available in other colors and sizes; please check the product listing for current availability.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stuck
Gently try to work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or bar soap to the teeth of the zipper to help it slide more smoothly.
Stitching is coming loose
For minor loose threads, carefully trim them with scissors. For significant seam issues, professional repair may be necessary.
Fabric feels stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and consider a fabric softener on a low heat setting during the drying cycle, or air dry.
