FAQs
Are these shorts suitable for professional swimming?
These are casual swim shorts; while functional for swimming, they are optimized for surf and beach lifestyle rather than competitive pool racing.
What material are the shorts made of?
They are constructed from 100% quick-dry polyester.
Does the size guide reflect a standard fit?
Yes, they feature a regular apparel fit type which is true to standard sizing.
Can I put these in the dryer?
It is not recommended. Heat can damage the elastic in the waistband and potentially degrade the embroidered logo.
Are there multiple sizes available?
Yes, they are available in various sizes ranging from Medium to XXL.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels too loose after prolonged use
Ensure the internal drawstring is tied securely if your model features one, or consider a smaller size if the elastic has lost its tension.
Sand trapped inside fabric
Shake the shorts thoroughly while dry or rinse vigorously in a tub of clean water to flush out fine particles.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These swim shorts are designed for an 'easy-on' experience; simply pull them on and adjust the waistband as necessary. To maintain the integrity of the fabric and the embroidered logo, follow these care guidelines: rinse with fresh water immediately after exposure to salt or chlorine. Machine wash on a gentle, cool cycle to preserve the elastic waistband's elasticity. Avoid tumble drying; hang-drying in the shade is recommended to prevent sun-fading of the vibrant blue fabric and to protect the structural integrity of the polyester fibers.
