FAQs

Are these swim shorts suitable for competitive swimming?

While comfortable and quick-drying, these swim shorts are designed more for recreational swimming, beach activities, and general comfort rather than high-performance competitive swimming where specialized suits are typically used.

What does UPF 50+ mean?

UPF 50+ stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor. It indicates that the fabric blocks 98% of the sun's harmful UV rays, offering excellent protection for your skin.

How do I know if I need a larger or smaller size?

The shorts have a regular fit and an adjustable drawcord waist. If you are between sizes or prefer a looser fit, consider sizing up. If you prefer a snugger fit, consider sizing down. Refer to a size chart if available for exact measurements.

Can I wear these for activities other than swimming?

Yes, the quick-drying fabric and comfortable design make them suitable for various warm-weather activities like beach lounging, light hiking, or casual wear.

How should I care for the shorts to maintain their quick-drying properties?

Follow the recommended washing instructions: machine wash at 40°C, avoid bleach, and tumble dry on low heat. Proper care ensures the fabric's performance is maintained.

Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?

The side pockets are standard for swim shorts, suitable for small items. The dedicated security pocket is ideal for keys or a small card, but may not be large enough for most smartphones.

What is the material made from?

The shorts are made from 100% recycled polyester microfibre fabric, weighing 120gsm.

Troubleshooting

Drawcord comes loose or is difficult to adjust

Ensure the drawcord is threaded correctly through the waistband. If it's too tight, gently loosen it. If it consistently loosens, tie a knot at the end of the drawcord.

Mesh brief liner feels uncomfortable

The mesh liner is designed for support. If it feels uncomfortable, consider trying a different style of swimwear or ensuring the shorts are the correct size. Some users may prefer to wear separate swimwear underneath, though this can affect drying time.

Discoloration after washing

Follow the care instructions precisely. Wash dark colors separately. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach, which can cause fading.

Pockets do not feel secure

The shorts feature one security pocket. Ensure items are placed securely within this pocket, as side pockets are not designed for valuables during strenuous activity.
