FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
Due to the heavy cotton denim, they may feel warm in extremely hot temperatures. They are best suited for moderate to warm weather or for activities where durability is prioritized over maximum breathability.
How do I determine the correct size?
Refer to the product description for fit information (Relaxed fit, Regular waist). It is recommended to check specific measurements if available or compare to shorts you already own that fit well.
Can I wash these shorts with other clothing?
It is recommended to wash them with like colors to prevent any potential color transfer, especially during the initial washes.
What is the primary advantage of the double-layered knees?

Is the fabric stretchy?

Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff or tight
The 100% cotton denim is durable but may require a break-in period. Wear them frequently for casual activities or wash them once before heavy use to soften the fabric.
Seams feel uncomfortable
Ensure the garment is washed according to instructions, as this can help soften the triple-stitched seams. Wearing them will also help mold the fabric to your body.
Color fading after washing
Wash the shorts inside out in cold water with like colors to minimize color loss. Avoid using bleach.
