Stradivarius D75 ripped denim shorts - Blue

These shorts are made from durable denim, which is predominantly cotton, ensuring comfort and breathability.

To best preserve the distressed finish and color, machine wash cold with similar colors on a gentle cycle, turning the shorts inside out. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat.

The distressed areas are designed to have a worn-in look. While proper care (gentle washing, air drying) can minimize further fraying, some natural evolution of the distressed elements is expected with wear and washing, contributing to their unique character.

A 'high-rise' fit means the waistband of the shorts sits higher on your waist, typically at or above your natural waistline, offering a flattering and comfortable fit.

Yes, these shorts feature belt loops, allowing you to comfortably wear your favorite belts to accessorize and adjust the fit as needed.

While denim shorts are most commonly worn in warmer seasons like spring and summer, they can be styled for transitional weather with tights or layered with longer tops and boots, making them versatile for varying climates.

It's always recommended to consult the brand's specific size guide if available, as sizing can vary. Consider your typical UK women's dress size for the best fit. If you are between sizes, consider whether you prefer a snug or more relaxed fit.

Wash shorts inside out on a gentle cycle with cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or tumble drying on high heat. Minor loose threads can be carefully trimmed with sharp scissors, but avoid cutting into the main fabric.

Denim can slightly shrink with heat. Always wash in cold water and air dry or tumble dry on a very low setting. You can gently stretch them while damp to regain some shape.

To minimize fading, always wash inside out using cold water and a detergent specifically designed for dark colors or denim. Limit direct exposure to strong sunlight for prolonged periods when drying.

Rub a graphite pencil lead (the 'lead' is graphite, not lead metal) along the teeth of the zipper to lubricate it. A small amount of bar soap or zipper wax can also work.
