FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for swimming?
While the fabric is quick-drying and suitable for occasional water immersion, they are primarily designed for sailing and boating activities rather than dedicated swimming.
What does bluesign® certified mean?

How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the size guide provided by Helly Hansen, paying close attention to the waist measurements. The product information indicates this specific item is a UK size 32 waist.
Can I wear these for hiking?
Yes, the comfort, quick-dry fabric, and UPF protection make them suitable for hiking and other outdoor activities, though their design is optimized for maritime use.
What is the UPF rating?
The UPF rating is 50+, which means it blocks over 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays.
Are there other colors available?

Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff after washing.
Ensure you are following the care instructions. Using a fabric softener on a low heat tumble dry can help restore softness.
Pockets not drying quickly.
Ensure pockets are fully opened during the drying process. A lower heat setting for longer can also help ensure full drying.
Color fading.
Wash inside out in cold water and avoid direct sunlight when drying to preserve color vibrancy.
