FAQs
What age group are these shorts designed for?
These shorts are designed for kids, specifically in the youth size range.
What is the main benefit of the water repellent treatment?
The PFC-free durable water repellent treatment helps the shorts dry quickly, enhancing comfort after swimming.
What does the 14" outseam mean?
The 14" outseam refers to the length of the shorts from the waistband down the side seam to the hem. This indicates a shorter, youth-appropriate length.
Are these shorts suitable for competitive swimming?
While comfortable and quick-drying, their design is more suited for recreational swimming, beach activities, and casual wear rather than competitive racing.
How should I wash these swim shorts?
Machine wash in cold water with similar colors. Tumble dry on low heat. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
What material are the shorts made from?
The shorts are made from 100% Polyester.
Can these shorts be worn for activities other than swimming?
Yes, their comfortable design and quick-drying fabric make them suitable for a variety of summer activities, including beach play and casual outings.
Troubleshooting
Swim shorts not drying quickly
Ensure the water repellent treatment has not worn off due to excessive washing with harsh detergents or fabric softeners. Check care label for correct washing instructions.
Elastic waistband feels too tight or loose
While the waistband is elastic, fit can vary. For a tighter fit, ensure the drawstring is properly tied if applicable. For a looser fit, check the size guide for the best fit before purchase. The elastic is designed to offer flexibility.
Water repellent treatment seems ineffective
The PFC-free treatment may naturally diminish over time with use and washing. Consider a re-waterproofing spray suitable for synthetic fabrics, following product instructions, to restore performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These swim shorts require no complex setup. They are designed for immediate use. To ensure the longevity and performance of the durable water repellent treatment, it is recommended to machine wash them in cold water with similar colors and tumble dry on low heat. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can degrade the fabric and its water-repellent properties. For best results, wash inside out and iron on a low setting if necessary, avoiding direct heat on any printed graphics.
