FAQs

What does 'Clean Edge' refer to?

'Clean Edge' typically refers to a refined finish on the denim, often meaning a more finished hem or overall cleaner aesthetic compared to distressed or raw styles.

Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?

Yes, made from denim with a relaxed fit, they are suitable for warm weather. The fabric allows for some breathability, and the looser fit enhances comfort.

What material are the shorts made of?

The primary material is denim, specifically mentioning organic cotton in the description, indicating a blend that includes sustainable cotton fibers.

How do I determine my size?

Refer to the size chart provided by the retailer or G-Star. The product specifies a '30' UK waist size for this variant, indicating a regular fit.

Can the G-STAR label be removed?

The G-STAR label on the back is made of a paper fabric imitating leather. While it may be possible to remove it, doing so could damage the garment or leave visible marks.

What is the leg opening like?

The shorts have a straight leg fit, meaning the leg opening maintains a consistent width from the knee down to the hem, offering a classic silhouette.

Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Avoid high heat in the washing machine and dryer. Always follow the recommended cold wash and low/hang dry settings. Ironing on a medium heat can help reshape if minor shrinkage occurs.

Color fading unevenly

Wash the shorts inside out with like colors to minimize friction and dye transfer. Use cold water and avoid harsh detergents. Air drying in the shade can also help preserve color.

Button fly is stiff

The button fly may be stiff due to new denim. Repeated wear and washing will naturally soften it. Avoid forcing buttons.
