FAQs

Are these swim shorts suitable for saltwater?

Yes, while designed for pool swimming, they are also suitable for saltwater. It is recommended to rinse them with fresh water after saltwater exposure to maintain fabric quality.

What does 'minimum 50% recycled polyester' mean?

This means at least half of the polyester used in the shorts is made from recycled materials, such as post-consumer plastic bottles, helping to reduce waste and conserve resources.

How do I ensure I get the right size?

Refer to the specific size guide provided by Polo Ralph Lauren for their apparel. Measure your waist and hips and compare them to the chart. If you are between sizes, consider whether you prefer a snug or relaxed fit.

Can I machine wash these shorts?

Yes, machine washing is generally acceptable. However, always check the care label on the product for specific instructions, including water temperature and cycle type.

Do these swim shorts have a liner?

The product description does not specify if a liner is included. Please refer to product images or consult the retailer for detailed features.

What is the return policy for these swim shorts?

Return policies vary by retailer. Please check the specific terms and conditions of the store where you purchased the item.

How should I store these swim shorts when not in use?

Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure they are completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.

Troubleshooting

Color fading or material degradation

Ensure you are following the care instructions precisely, particularly regarding water temperature and detergent type. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when not in use.

Elastic waistband losing stretch

Avoid high heat drying (tumble dry on low or air dry). Do not use fabric softeners, as they can degrade elastic over time.

Fit is too tight or too loose

Consult the size chart provided by Polo Ralph Lauren. If between sizes, consider the intended fit; if you prefer a looser fit, consider ordering one size up.
