Full details

Their key benefit is the combination of quick-drying, stretchy fabric that allows for unrestricted movement. A potential caveat is that they feature integrated lining, which may not be preferred by all users. These swim shorts boast quick-drying and stretchy materials, an integrated lining, side pockets, a back pocket with Velcro, and an elastic waist with a drawstring. They also incorporate bluesign® certified main material and recycled content.

Troubleshooting
Swim shorts feel tight or restrictive.
Ensure the drawstring is loosened to its maximum capacity. If the issue persists, consider trying a larger size or checking the fit in different positions.
Fabric is not drying as quickly as expected.
Ensure the shorts are not oversaturated with water. Wring out excess water gently before hanging to dry. Check that no fabric softener was used, as it can impede drying.
Pockets feel insecure.
Ensure the Velcro on the back pocket is properly fastened. For activities requiring maximum security, consider using a waterproof pouch for valuables.
