Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your board shorts last through many seasons, follow these guidelines. Setup is straightforward: simply pull them on and adjust the front drawcord to your desired tension. For care, it is recommended to rinse the shorts in fresh water immediately after exposure to chlorine or salt to prevent fabric fatigue. When washing, use a gentle cycle with cold water and avoid fabric softeners, which can interfere with the quick-dry properties of the technical fabric. Always air dry in the shade to maintain the integrity of the UPF protection.
