Featuring a stylish floral pattern and a practical pull-on design, these shorts offer a reliable 200gsm polyester construction that holds up well in both pool and saltwater environments. While they provide excellent UPF 50+ sun protection, users should note that they are specialized swimwear bottoms and may require a separate matching top to complete a full bathing suit set.

FAQs
What does the UPF 50+ rating mean?
It means the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's UVA and UVB rays, providing excellent skin protection while you are in the water.
Are these shorts machine washable?
While they are durable, it is recommended to hand wash them in cool water to preserve the elastic and the UV protective coating.
Do these shorts come with a matching top?
No, these are sold as individual bikini shorts. You will need to purchase a coordinating top separately.
Is the material quick-drying?
The polyester construction is designed for performance swimwear and will dry relatively quickly compared to standard cotton fabrics.
How should I choose the right size?
The shorts follow standard UK dress sizing. Refer to your regular size in women's apparel for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels stiff after drying.
This is often due to residual chlorine or salt; ensure you rinse the garment thoroughly with fresh, cool water after every use.
Shorts feel loose during high-intensity activity.
Ensure you are wearing the correct UK dress size; the pull-on fit relies on the elasticated waistband remaining flush against the skin.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These shorts utilize a simple pull-on setup, requiring no adjustments or ties. For optimal longevity, rinse the shorts with fresh, cold water immediately after use in salt or chlorinated water to remove chemical residues. Avoid wringing the fabric excessively; instead, gently squeeze to remove excess water and lay flat to dry in the shade. Do not bleach or iron, as these actions can degrade the UV-protective finish of the polyester material.
