FAQs
What age group are these swim shorts for?
These swim shorts are designed for kids, specifically boys. The sizing generally ranges from younger children (e.g., 3-4 years) up to older kids (e.g., 9-10 years), depending on the specific size selected.
What does 'PFC Free durable water repellent' mean?
PFC-free means the water-repellent treatment does not use perfluorinated chemicals, which are considered more environmentally friendly. 'Durable water repellent' means the fabric is treated to resist water absorption, causing water to bead up and roll off, helping the shorts dry faster.
How long is the outseam?
The outseam measures 14 inches, providing a shorter, youth-oriented length.
What is the material of the swim shorts?
The swim shorts are made from 100% Polyester.
Can these be worn for sports other than swimming?
Yes, the quick-drying fabric and comfortable fit make them suitable for various beach and water-related activities, as well as general active play.
How should I wash these swim shorts?
Machine wash them cold with like colors using a mild detergent. Avoid bleach. Tumble dry on low heat or hang dry. Do not iron or dry clean.
Do these shorts have a liner?
The provided product information does not specify if these shorts include a built-in liner. Typically, volley-style shorts may or may not have one.
Troubleshooting
Shorts are not drying as quickly as expected.
Ensure the fabric is not saturated with oils or heavy detergents. Repeated washing with harsh chemicals can sometimes affect the water-repellent treatment over time. Follow recommended care instructions.
Waistband feels too tight or too loose.
The elasticated waistband is designed for a snug fit. If it feels consistently too tight for comfort, consider trying a size up. If it feels too loose, ensure the drawstring (if present and adjustable) is tightened appropriately. Note that specific sizing charts should be consulted for the best fit.
Color fading after washing.
Wash in cold water with like colors and mild detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying, as this can contribute to fading. Hang drying in the shade is recommended.
