FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for competitive swimming?
These shorts are designed for general watersports and recreational swimming. For competitive swimming, specialized racing suits are typically recommended for optimal performance.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided by Freespirit or compare with your usual UK waist size. The drawcord also allows for some adjustability within the stated waist size.
Can I wear these for running or other sports?
While the fabric is comfortable and quick-drying, the fit and design are primarily optimized for water activities. For dedicated running or gym workouts, sports-specific apparel might be more suitable.
What does 'woven peach fabric' mean?
Woven peach fabric refers to a type of fabric finish that gives the material a soft, slightly fuzzy texture, similar to the skin of a peach. It enhances comfort and feel.
How long will the UV and chlorine resistance last?
The resistance is built into the fabric. Lifespan depends on usage frequency and adherence to care instructions. Regular washing after use in chlorinated water or saltwater helps maintain the fabric's properties.
Are the pockets mesh or solid fabric?
The pockets are made from a blend of 95% polyester and 5% elastane, providing a smooth lining material.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is difficult to adjust
Ensure the drawcord is not tangled. If it feels stiff, gently work it back and forth. Wash the shorts to help soften the fabric and drawcord.
Pockets feel insecure for small items
For maximum security, consider using a waterproof pouch for very small or valuable items. The pockets are designed for general convenience rather than high-security storage.
Discoloration after prolonged use
While the fabric is UV and chlorine resistant, extreme or prolonged exposure to harsh conditions may still cause some fading over time. Adhering to care instructions can help minimize this.
