FAQs
Can I put these shorts in the dryer?
No, you must hang the garment to dry naturally. High heat from a dryer can damage the fabric and the vintage print.
Are these shorts suitable for sports?
Yes, the regular fit and inner mesh lining make them suitable for active seaside use, such as beach volleyball or swimming.
How should I remove sand from the pockets?
Turn the pockets inside out and rinse them under running water. Because they feature French seams, shaking them firmly while dry is also usually effective.
Can I wear these in a chlorine pool?
Yes, but be sure to rinse the shorts thoroughly with fresh water after swimming to remove chlorine residue, which can degrade the fabric over time.
What does the regular fit mean?
The regular fit indicates a standard, comfortable silhouette that is not too tight nor too baggy, sitting appropriately on the waist and legs.
Troubleshooting
Shorts ballooning when diving into water
Ensure the drawcord is securely tightened and check that the water-draining eyelets are not obstructed by sand or debris.
Fabric feels heavy after swimming
Verify that you are using a neutral soap during care, as residue from heavy detergents can trap moisture and salt in the fabric fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gustavia swim shorts last for many seasons, proper maintenance is essential. Always wash the garment in cold water using only a neutral soap. Avoid the use of harsh detergents or bleach. It is recommended to wash the shorts by hand under running water rather than using a washing machine. After cleaning, shake off excess water and hang the garment in a well-ventilated area to air dry. Never leave the shorts soaking in water for extended periods, and ensure they are dried separately from other clothing to prevent potential color transfer or print damage.
