FAQs
What age group are these swim shorts for?
These swim shorts are designed for kids and are available in various youth sizes, from smaller sizes like 2 years/3 years/4 years up to size L.
Are these shorts chlorine resistant?
While made from durable polyester, extended exposure to chlorine can affect any fabric. Rinsing them with fresh water after swimming in a chlorinated pool is recommended to prolong their lifespan.
What does 'PFC Free' mean?
PFC Free means the shorts are made without perfluorinated chemicals, which are often used in water-repellent treatments but can be harmful to the environment. This is a more eco-friendly approach.
How do I choose the correct size?
It is recommended to check the specific sizing chart provided by Quiksilver, paying attention to the waist and length measurements, as youth sizing can vary.
Can these shorts be worn for sports other than swimming?
Yes, due to their comfortable fit, quick-drying material, and lightweight design, they are suitable for various summer activities and light sports.
What is the inseam length?
The product description specifies a 14" outseam, which refers to the length from the waistband to the hem on the outside of the leg. The inseam (inner leg length) is not explicitly stated but is typically shorter on volley-style shorts.
Troubleshooting
Swim shorts not drying quickly
Ensure the shorts are not overloaded in the dryer and are exposed to air circulation. Check that no other heavy fabrics are hindering drying.
Elastic waistband feels too loose or tight
While the elastic waistband is designed for comfort, significant fit issues may indicate an incorrect size was purchased. Refer to the sizing chart for accurate measurements.
Water repellency seems reduced
The water-repellent treatment can diminish over time with frequent washing. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impact this finish. Consider a re-waterproofing spray designed for outdoor apparel if significant reduction occurs.
