Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight/loose despite being the correct size.

Adjust the drawstring to achieve a more comfortable fit. If the base size is significantly off, consider exchanging for a different size.

Fabric appears wrinkled after washing.

This is natural for linen blends. Try to remove from the dryer while slightly damp and hang to dry, or iron on a low heat setting. A gentle shake out after drying can also help.

Pockets feel shallow.

The pockets are designed for light essentials. For carrying larger items, consider using a bag.
