Omni-Shade UPF 50 technology blocks harmful UVA and UVB rays, helping to prevent sunburn and skin damage during prolonged sun exposure.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?

Troubleshooting
Belt buckle slips during use
Ensure the webbing is threaded correctly through the buckle teeth; if it continues to slip, check for debris caught in the buckle mechanism.
Fabric snagged on trail brush
Gently pull the surrounding fabric to help the snag settle; avoid cutting loose threads as this can cause the seam or weave to unravel.
Moisture management feels reduced
Wash the garment without fabric softener to strip away any residue that may be blocking the wicking properties of the polyester fibers.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your shorts, always adjust the integrated belt before starting your activity to prevent chafing or slippage. These shorts are designed for a regular fit; if you are between sizes, the adjustable waist allows for minor tightening. For care, wash the shorts in cold water on a gentle cycle to preserve the integrity of the Omni-Shade technology and the fabric's moisture-wicking properties. Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the fibers and interfere with the sweat-wicking performance. Air drying is recommended to further extend the life of the material.
