FAQs
What is the '14" outseam' measurement?
The 14" outseam refers to the length of the shorts measured from the top of the waistband down to the hem along the side seam. This length is typical for youth swim shorts, hitting just above the knee.
What does 'PFC Free durable water repellent' mean?
PFC-free means the water repellent treatment does not use per- and polyfluorinated chemicals, which are considered more environmentally friendly. It helps water and dirt slide off the fabric surface.
How do I ensure the best fit for my child?
Refer to the size chart for UK children's size 5-6. The elasticated waistband offers some flexibility, but precise measurements for waist and hip circumference will yield the most accurate fit.
Can these shorts be used for competitive swimming?
These are designed as casual boardshorts or 'jams' for recreational swimming and beach activities. For competitive swimming, specialized racing suits are recommended.
What is the material of the shorts?
The shorts are made from 100% Polyester.
Are there any other colors available in this style?
While this specific listing is for Yellow, other colors like Orange and Green are available in the Quiksilver Kids Everyday Volley 14" Swim Shorts line under different product codes or listings.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff after washing
Ensure you are using a mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners, which can affect the water repellent treatment. Tumble dry on low or hang dry.
Water repellent treatment seems less effective
Over time, the DWR treatment can wear off. Avoid harsh detergents and excessive heat. Consider a specialized DWR re-treatment spray for outdoor gear if performance significantly degrades.
Elastic waistband feels too tight or loose
The elastic waistband is designed for a snug fit. If it feels uncomfortable, ensure you have selected the correct size. These shorts do not have adjustable drawstrings.
