Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight or too loose

Refer to the sizing chart and consider trying a different size if possible. The tailored fit is key to the intended silhouette.

Ensure gentle washing cycles are used and avoid direct heat on buttons during ironing. Inspect buttons regularly and consider reinforcing if needed.

Fabric has lost its crispness

Ensure proper washing and drying techniques are followed. A light iron can often restore the shape and structure.
