Product Information
Full details
The adidas Swim Shorts 5 Inch are designed for adult men who prioritize versatility, comfort, and a streamlined look both in and out of the water. These shorts offer the key benefit of a quick-drying polyester construction, allowing for a seamless transition from swimming to casual poolside activities. A potential caveat for some users is the 5-inch inseam, which offers a shorter, more athletic cut that may not suit those who prefer longer board shorts.

Does this model include a liner?
Yes, these shorts feature built-in mesh briefs for added support.
How should I choose the right size?

Troubleshooting
Drawcord gets pulled inside the waistband
Use a safety pin to guide the drawstring end back through the hole, or gently push it through using your fingers from the outside of the fabric.
Shorts are taking too long to dry
Ensure you are wringing out excess water after leaving the pool and avoid leaving them in a damp gym bag or pile.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your swim shorts last as long as possible, follow these care guidelines. Always rinse the shorts in fresh, cool water immediately after use in chlorinated pools or saltwater to prevent fabric degradation. Machine wash on a gentle cycle with like colors and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, as these can break down the technical qualities of the polyester material. Hang the shorts to air dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight, which can cause premature fading of the green fabric. The adjustable drawcord allows for a personalized fit, so ensure it is securely tied before diving or swimming to prevent the shorts from shifting.
