FAQs

Are these shorts suitable for swimming?

While made of quick-dry material, they are designed as casual outdoor/activewear and are not specifically tested as swimwear.

Do these shorts have an elastic waist?

Yes, many models in the Tide range feature an elasticated waistband for added comfort and flexibility.

Can I wear these for long-distance hiking?

Yes, the 4-way stretch and moisture-wicking properties make them a great choice for warm-weather trekking.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Consult the brand size chart, focusing on your UK dress size, as these are tailored to standard adult female sizing.

Are they wrinkle-resistant?

Yes, the synthetic construction is naturally resistant to heavy creasing, making them ideal for packing in a suitcase.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels slightly stiff after washing

Avoid overusing detergent, which can leave a residue. Ensure a thorough rinse cycle.

Shorts appear to hold water

Ensure the shorts are not being washed with heavy, absorbent cotton items that inhibit the performance of the synthetic fibers.

Pros and Cons

Dries exceptionally fast after washing or getting wet
Excellent range of motion due to 4-way stretch fabric

Lightweight and breathable material

Casual aesthetic may not suit formal settings

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shorts do not require special setup; simply ensure the size corresponds to your standard dress size for the best fit. To maintain the integrity of the 4-way stretch and UV-blocking properties:

Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid fabric softeners which can clog the moisture-wicking properties of the fabric.
Drying: Air dry is recommended. The quick-dry nature of the material ensures they will be ready to wear again in a short period.
Ironing: Generally not required. If necessary, use a cool setting to prevent heat damage to the synthetic fibers.
