FAQs

What is HYDROFREE DWR technology?

HYDROFREE DWR is an advanced water-repellent coating applied to the fabric. It helps to repel water from the surface, preventing the fabric from becoming saturated in light rain and minimizing moisture retention.

Are these shorts suitable for heavy rain?

The HYDROFREE DWR technology offers protection against light rain and splashes. For prolonged or heavy downpours, additional waterproof gear would be recommended.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by Oakley or the retailer. The shorts feature a regular fit, but checking your waist and inseam measurements against the guide will ensure the best fit.

Can I wear these for casual occasions?

Yes, while designed for technical performance, the utilitarian style and comfortable fit make them suitable for casual wear, especially for those who appreciate a techwear aesthetic.

How should I wash these shorts?

Machine wash cold with like colors, use a mild detergent, do not bleach, and tumble dry on low or hang dry. Avoid fabric softeners and dry cleaning.

What material are the shorts made from?

The shorts are made from 100% durable nylon.

Do the cargo pockets have zippers?

Yes, the shorts feature functional, roomy side cargo pockets with secure zipper closures.

Troubleshooting

Water repellency seems reduced

The DWR coating may have worn off due to washing. Reapply a DWR treatment suitable for technical apparel according to the product's instructions. Avoid using fabric softeners during washing, as they can degrade water-repellent properties.

Shorts feel damp after activity

Ensure the garment is not overloaded with items in the pockets, which can impede airflow. Check that the fabric's moisture-wicking properties are not compromised by excessive detergent residue; try rinsing thoroughly or a vinegar rinse.

Zipper on cargo pocket is stuck

Gently try to move the zipper back and forth. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or a silicone-based lubricant to the zipper teeth. Avoid forcing the zipper, which can cause damage.
