What is the fit of these shorts?

They have a relaxed fit at the top, a mid-rise waist, a straight leg cut, and fall above the knee. The fit is intended to be comfortable and casual.

How should I wash and care for these shorts?

Machine wash cold, inside out, with like colors. Use non-chlorine bleach only if needed. Tumble dry low and iron warm if necessary. Avoid dry cleaning. Pay special attention to the paper fabric label on the back.

What does 'Clean Edge' refer to in the product name?

'Clean Edge' typically refers to a design aesthetic, possibly indicating a neat finish or a specific type of hem. In this case, it describes the overall clean lines and modern cut of the shorts.

Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?

While they are shorts, denim can be less breathable than lighter fabrics in extreme heat. However, the above-knee length and relaxed fit offer good ventilation for typical warm weather.

What is the sizing like for these shorts?

The sizing is based on standard men's waist measurements (UK size 28 is listed for this specific variant). It is recommended to consult the G-Star size chart for the most accurate fit, considering the relaxed top and straight leg.

Does the product come in other colors?

Yes, this style of shorts is often available in other colors. Please check the product listing or G-Star's official catalog for available color variations.

Troubleshooting

Shorts feel too tight at the waist

Ensure you have selected the correct waist size. Check the size chart. The mid-rise fit should sit naturally; if it feels constricting, consider a size up or a different fit style.

Denim feels stiff initially

New denim can be stiff. Wear the shorts multiple times and wash them according to care instructions. The fabric will soften with wear and washing.

Button fly is difficult to fasten

Ensure all buttons are properly aligned before fastening. If a buttonhole seems tight, gently stretch it or use a small tool to ease the button through, being careful not to damage the fabric.

Label on the back is damaged

Follow the specific care instructions for the paper fabric label. Avoid harsh scrubbing or direct high heat from an iron. If washing, turn the shorts inside out and use a gentle cycle.
