Product Information

Full details

The Oakley Waterscape Hybrid 17'' Short is designed for adult males seeking versatile shorts for both water activities and casual beachwear. Its key benefit is the combination of water-ready performance, including a water-repellent finish and quick-drying properties, with a comfortable, casual fit. A potential caveat for some users may be the 17-inch outseam length, which is shorter than traditional board shorts. This product features a lightweight polyester construction, a breathable mesh lining, an elasticated waistband with a drawcord, and multiple pockets for convenience.

FAQs

What is the outseam length of these shorts?

The outseam length is 17 inches (approximately 43 cm).

Are these shorts suitable for competitive swimming?

While they are water-ready and quick-drying, their design is more suited for recreational swimming, beach activities, and casual wear rather than competitive performance.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided, which lists available sizes by men's UK waist measurements (e.g., W30, W32, W34, W36). The fit is described as regular.

Can I wear these shorts for running or gym workouts?

The lightweight and quick-drying nature makes them comfortable for light athletic activities, but they are primarily designed for water-related use and casual wear.

How do the pockets function?

There are side hand pockets and a back pocket integrated into the side seam. The side pockets include an internal mesh bag pocket for additional small storage.

What material are the shorts made from?

The shorts are made from 100% polyester.

Do these shorts have a liner?

Yes, they feature a full mesh lining for comfort and breathability.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel stiff after washing

Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners, which can affect the fabric's properties. Air drying or tumble drying on low heat can help restore softness.

Water-repellent finish seems diminished

This finish can wear off over time. Consider using a re-waterproofing spray specifically designed for outdoor apparel after washing and drying according to care instructions.

Drawcord is difficult to adjust

Ensure the drawcord is not tangled. If it feels stuck, gently try to work it free. Make sure the waistband is not overly bunched up when adjusting.
