Troubleshooting
Shorts feel tight or loose
Adjust the drawcord at the waist for a secure and comfortable fit. Ensure you have selected the correct size based on the product's sizing guide.
Pockets do not feel secure
The security pocket is designed for small items. For swimming, it is best to leave valuables in a safe place rather than in any of the pockets.
