FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for intense lap swimming?
Yes, the lightweight fabric and reinforced side slits allow for the range of motion required for swimming, though they are also designed for casual beach use.
What does 'peach-touch' fabric mean?
It refers to a specific fabric finishing process that gives the polyester a soft, velvety texture similar to the skin of a peach.
Do the shorts feature a drawstring?
Yes, they include an elasticated drawstring waistband to help you achieve a secure, personalized fit.
Are the metal accessories prone to rusting?
The shorts use nickel-free metal accessories which are specifically chosen for their resistance to corrosion in saltwater environments.
Can I use these shorts for gym workouts?
While the material is durable, they are primarily designed as swimwear and feature an inner mesh that may not be ideal for intense gym-based training.
Troubleshooting
Inner mesh feels abrasive or uncomfortable
Ensure the shorts are pulled up correctly at the waist; sometimes adjusting the elastic waistband can reposition the mesh for a better fit.
Pocket flap velcro losing grip
Check for trapped sand or debris in the velcro teeth and rinse thoroughly with fresh water to restore stickiness.
