FAQs
Can I wear these shorts as a swimsuit?
Yes, they are designed to be used in and out of the water, and the mesh-lined pockets allow for drainage.
Do these shorts have a liner?
The standard version of these 5" Baggies typically does not include an internal mesh brief liner.
How should I clean the recycled nylon fabric?
Machine wash cold with similar colors and tumble dry on low heat.
Are the pockets large enough for a smartphone?
While they feature two front pockets, they are designed for standard items like keys or small essentials; large phones may feel bulky or insecure.
Is the fabric stretchable?
The recycled nylon material is lightweight and durable but does not contain elastane; the comfort comes from the relaxed fit.
Troubleshooting
Drawcord is stuck or pulled inside the waistband
Use a safety pin to guide the end of the cord back through the eyelet, or gently work the cord through the channel using your fingers from the outside.
Water repellency seems to be fading
Tumble dry the shorts on a low heat setting for 10-20 minutes, which can help reactivate the DWR finish, or apply a spray-on DWR treatment if the coating has worn off.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shorts utilize a pull-on design with an internal drawcord, setup is minimal—simply adjust the waist to your comfort level. Regarding compatibility, the regular fit pairs well with casual t-shirts, tank tops, or swim tops. To ensure the longevity of the DWR (durable water repellent) finish, machine wash in cold water using a mild detergent and tumble dry on low. Avoid using fabric softeners or bleach, as these can degrade the water-resistant properties of the nylon fabric over time.
