Ensure the drawcord is pulled tight and knotted securely, and check that the drainage eyelets are not obstructed by sand or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Gustavia swim shorts maintain their look and performance over time, follow these guidelines: rinse the shorts with fresh, cool water immediately after use in salt or chlorinated water to remove corrosive residue. When washing, use a gentle cycle with mild detergent and avoid using bleach or fabric softeners, which can degrade the technical properties of the polyester. Always air dry the shorts in the shade rather than in direct, harsh sunlight to prevent the vintage print from fading prematurely. These shorts feature a standard regular fit and are available in various sizes; ensure you select the size that aligns with your typical waist measurements to utilize the drawcord system effectively.
