FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for surfing?
Yes, the 16-inch outseam and regular fit are specifically designed to provide high mobility, making them a great choice for surfing.
What does PFC-free mean?
PFC-free indicates that the water-repellent coating used is free of perfluorinated chemicals, making the production process more environmentally friendly.
Can these be worn as everyday casual shorts?
Absolutely. The floral pattern and comfortable fit make them suitable for beachside wear, casual outings, or warm-weather activities.
How should I dry these shorts?
It is best to hang them to dry in a shaded area away from direct sunlight to preserve both the fabric strength and the colors.
Is the fabric stretchy?
The shorts feature a regular fit with a semi-elasticated waistband, offering enough flexibility for active movement without being overly compressive.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels heavy or stays wet
The hydrophobic coating may be worn down. Ensure you are not using fabric softeners during wash cycles and allow the shorts to air dry completely.
Waistband feels too loose
Verify your waist measurement against the size 32 specifications. Use the integrated drawstring to tighten the fit securely before entering the water.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your boardshorts, it is important to follow proper maintenance steps. Always rinse the shorts thoroughly in fresh, cool water after exposure to chlorine or saltwater to remove chemical or salt residue that can break down the fabric. Wash on a gentle cycle with mild detergent and hang dry in the shade, as direct sunlight can cause the floral pattern to fade prematurely. Avoid using fabric softeners, as these can strip the hydrophobic coating from the polyester fibers, reducing the quick-drying performance over time.
