Swimming Shorts FAQs

Why choose recycled swim shorts?

Swimming shorts made from recycled plastics offer a practical solution to ocean pollution and represent a significant shift towards sustainable fashion. By supporting brands that invest in such initiatives, consumers play an active role in promoting eco-friendly practices.

What length are your swim shorts?

A classic and versatile option, the length of our swim shorts fall around the mid thigh and offer a flattering, balanced look suitable for most body types and activities.

Are they suitable for chlorine and salt water?

Yes, recycled polyester swim shorts offer excellent durability, quick drying, and chlorine resistance. However, proper care, including rinsing thoroughly with fresh water after each use and air drying in the shade, is crucial to maintain their quality and extend their lifespan.

Do your swim shorts have pockets?

Yes, our swim shorts have three mesh pockets.

How do I care for my swim shorts?

Always rinse after use, avoid wringing, and best dried flat. Wash on a 30°C delicate cycle or hand wash with warm water. Do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron, do not dry clean.

Why do swim shorts have mesh lining and not fabric?

Swim shorts feature a mesh lining for comfort and protection by acting as a built in supportive layer that prevents chafing and provides coverage. The mesh allows for better air circulation, helping the wearer stay cool, and allows water to drain quickly, which keeps the shorts from becoming heavy and uncomfortable when wet.
