Full details

Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose.
Adjust the internal drawstring to achieve a secure yet comfortable fit. If the overall size is incorrect, consider exchanging for a different size.
Velcro on back pocket is not sticking well.
Ensure the velcro is clean and free of debris. Gently brush the velcro surfaces. If the issue persists, the velcro may be worn out.
Fabric is taking too long to dry.
Ensure the shorts are not heavily saturated. Wring out excess water and hang in a well-ventilated area. Check care label to ensure correct washing and drying methods were used.
