FAQs
What does 'Micro Repel' mean?
Micro Repel is a water-repellent and quick-drying technology applied to the fabric, causing water to bead up and roll off, and allowing the material to dry faster.
What is the material composition of these shorts?
The shorts are made from a 4-way stretch quad blend fabric consisting of 64% Polyester, 22% Cotton, 8% Elastane, and 6% Nylon.
What is the purpose of the 21" outseam?
The 21" outseam refers to the length of the shorts from the waistband down the side. This provides a longer, modern fit.
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the quick-dry feature makes them suitable for water activities, they are primarily designed as performance shorts rather than dedicated swimwear. The fabric blend is durable enough for occasional water use.
What is the 'Core Fit' design?
Core Fit typically refers to a standard, comfortable fit that is neither too tight nor too loose, designed to be flattering and functional for everyday wear and activity.
Can I machine wash these shorts?
Yes, you can machine wash them cold with similar colors on a gentle cycle. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
Do these shorts come in other colors or sizes?
This specific product is the Billabong Crossfire Chino Shorts in Blue, size 34. Other sizes and potentially colors may be available under different product listings.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Try hanging them to air dry instead of tumble drying.
Zipper on back pocket is difficult to use
Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. You can apply a small amount of graphite pencil lead or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth for smoother operation.
Fabric does not seem to be drying as quickly
Ensure the Micro Repel treatment has not been compromised by harsh detergents or excessive heat during drying. Follow care instructions precisely.
