Product Information
Full details
The Skinni Fit Retro Shorts are designed for active women who prioritize a blend of sporty aesthetics and casual comfort. Featuring a flattering slim fit and convenient adjustable waist, these shorts are ideal for gym sessions, light athletics, or everyday loungewear. While the cotton construction offers excellent breathability and softness, users should note that the slim silhouette is tailored to a tighter fit, so those preferring a looser style may want to consider sizing up.

FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for intense cardio?
While the shorts are designed for active wear, they are primarily cotton. For high-intensity, sweat-heavy cardio, you may prefer a synthetic moisture-wicking material.
How does the sizing compare to standard UK sizes?
These shorts follow a slim-fit cut. If you are typically between sizes or prefer a less restrictive feel, we recommend sizing up from your standard dress size.
Can I use these for custom screen printing?
Yes, the garment is designed with a removable label specifically to facilitate easy rebranding and custom printing.
What do the certifications mean?
These certifications (SEDEX, BSCI, Oeko-Tex) ensure that the product is manufactured under fair labor conditions and that the materials used are free from harmful substances.
Are these shorts machine washable?
Yes, they are machine washable. We recommend washing at 30 degrees Celsius and avoiding high heat tumble drying to protect the elastic and fabric integrity.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord gets pulled inside the waistband
Use a small safety pin attached to one end of the cord to feed it back through the casing starting from the eyelet.
Fabric feels slightly stiff after washing
Use a mild fabric softener during the rinse cycle or air dry the shorts to allow the natural fibers to relax.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Getting the most out of your Skinni Fit Retro Shorts requires proper maintenance to preserve the fabric and shape. Since these shorts feature a cotton construction, it is recommended to machine wash them on a cool setting (30 degrees Celsius) to prevent shrinkage. Avoid aggressive tumble drying; air drying is the best way to maintain the elasticity of the waist cord. If you plan to use these for custom printing, the removable label area is located conveniently for easy garment processing. Always refer to the internal care label for specific instructions regarding bleach and ironing to keep the contrast binding sharp and clean.
