FAQs

Are these shorts water-resistant?

While they are not fully waterproof, the 100% polyester fabric is hydrophobic, meaning it absorbs very little water and dries extremely quickly.

Does the fabric provide sun protection?

Yes, these shorts are built with UPF 50 sun protection to block a significant portion of harmful UV radiation.

Can I use these for swimming?

They can be used for occasional water activities, though they are primarily designed as hiking and trekking shorts rather than dedicated swimwear.

What is the material composition?

The shorts are made from 100% recycled polyester.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to standard men's waist measurements; these shorts generally follow true-to-size retail sizing.

How should I store these shorts?

Keep them in a cool, dry place. Avoid leaving them in a wet gym bag for extended periods, as this can encourage mildew despite the moisture-wicking fabric.

Troubleshooting

Fabric feels damp after long periods of heavy sweating

Ensure that your base layer or underwear is also made of moisture-wicking, synthetic material to allow the fabric to perform as intended.

Dirt or stains are difficult to remove

Pre-treat stained areas with a mild detergent before washing and avoid using high temperatures which can set organic stains into synthetic fibers.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking capabilities for hot days

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These shorts are designed for a standard fit. To ensure longevity, follow these care instructions:

  1. Washing: Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle with like colors.
  2. Bleaching: Do not use bleach, as it can damage the moisture-wicking and UV-protection treatments.
  3. Drying: Tumble dry on a low setting or hang dry to preserve the integrity of the synthetic fibers.
  4. Ironing: Avoid high-heat ironing; if necessary, use a cool iron to remove wrinkles.
  5. Fabric Softener: Avoid fabric softeners, as they can clog the pores in the polyester that facilitate moisture-wicking.
