Troubleshooting
Shorts feel damp after extended wear
Ensure the shorts are fully dry before packing or storing. Allow for air circulation to aid drying.
Waistband feels too loose or too tight
Adjust the drawcord for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on waist measurement.
Water seems to soak into the fabric
