FAQs

What does NetPlus® mean?

NetPlus® refers to Patagonia's fabric made from 100% postconsumer recycled nylon derived from recycled fishing nets, helping to reduce plastic pollution in the oceans.

Are these shorts truly waterproof?

The shorts have a durable water repellent (DWR) finish, which helps shed light moisture and dries quickly. They are not fully waterproof but are designed for quick drying after submersion.

How do I choose the right size?

The shorts are designed for a relaxed fit. It is recommended to check the size chart provided by Patagonia and consider your preferred fit. The model in the description is 183cm wearing a size medium.

Can I wear these for running or intense sports?

While comfortable and quick-drying, their primary design is for casual wear and watersports. For high-impact running, dedicated running shorts might offer better support and breathability.

What is the benefit of being Made in a Fair Trade Certified™ factory?

This certification means that the workers who made the product earned a premium for their labor, contributing to better working conditions and economic empowerment.

What does PFC-free DWR mean?

It means the durable water repellent finish is made without intentionally added perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs/PFAS), which are considered harmful to the environment and human health.

How should I care for the shorts to maximize their lifespan?

Machine wash cold, do not bleach, tumble dry low, and do not iron. Proper care helps maintain the fabric's performance and the DWR finish.

Troubleshooting

Elastic waistband feels too tight or too loose.

Adjust the internal drawcord to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. If the waistband itself is too tight for comfort, consider a different size or style.

Pockets do not drain water effectively.

Ensure the drain-and-dry mesh corners are clear of debris. Gently agitate the pockets in water to help clear any blockages.

DWR finish seems less effective after several uses.

The DWR finish can diminish over time. Consider reapplying a PFC-free DWR treatment after washing according to care instructions. Consult product care guides for specific reapplication methods.

Shorts feel stiff after washing.

Ensure you are tumble drying on a low setting and not ironing. Sometimes, a few wears can soften the fabric again.
