FAQs
Are these shorts machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. Follow the care instructions on the inner tag, using cold water and avoiding fabric softeners.
Can I remove the integrated belt?
Yes, the belt is designed to be removable if you prefer to use your own or do not require it.
Do these shorts have stretch?
They are made of durable polyester and while they are designed for mobility through a gusseted construction, they do not feature the high-stretch properties of spandex-blend apparel.
What is the purpose of the gusset detail?
The gusset is a diamond-shaped piece of fabric sewn into the crotch area to improve range of motion and prevent the shorts from binding during high-stepping or climbing.
Is the sun protection permanent?
The UPF 50 protection is integrated into the fabric and does not wash out, providing consistent protection over the life of the product.
Troubleshooting
Belt slips during activity
Ensure the webbing is properly threaded through the buckle teeth; adjust tension when the shorts are pulled into the correct position on your hips.
Fabric feels damp after long use
Moisture-wicking efficiency can be reduced by residue; wash the shorts with a technical gear detergent to clear out sweat salts and sunscreen buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To get the best fit, utilize the integrated removable belt to cinch the waist comfortably; the partial elastic band provides enough tension to keep the shorts in place during vigorous hiking. For care, it is recommended to wash the shorts in cold water with similar colors. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can interfere with the moisture-wicking performance of the synthetic fibers. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly to minimize wrinkling. The durable polyester material is designed for longevity and should be cleaned after heavy use to prevent salt and debris from clogging the fabric pores.
