Frequently Asked Questions
This brief comes in Pink, Green, and Dark Green (15 variants) — it is the only striped swim short in the store to offer Dark Green alongside standard Green. Are these two greens visually distinct enough to justify separate options?
Yes. Dark Green creates a deeper, more forest-like tone while standard Green provides a brighter, more vibrant beach-oriented color. Against the same stripe pattern, these two greens produce meaningfully different aesthetics — Dark Green reads as more classic and understated while Green reads as more vivid and tropical.
The composition is 95% Polyester / 5% Elastane — unlike most other striped shorts in the range which use 100% Polyester. Does the 5% Elastane provide any swimming advantage?
The 5% Elastane adds minor recovery and ease of movement compared to pure non-stretch alternatives. For active swimmers, this marginally improves comfort during leg movement compared to 100% Polyester versions. The difference is subtle but noticeable in extended swimming sessions.
The waist range for Size S is 30.5–39 — slightly different from other striped shorts showing 28.3–39.4 or 29.1–40.9. Is this a different drawstring construction?
Yes. The 30.5-inch minimum (versus 28.3 or 29.1 on other shorts) indicates this brief does not accommodate as small a waist at Size S. The 39-inch upper limit is also slightly narrower than the 39.4-40.9 on other options. This slightly narrower total range reflects a different drawstring length in this construction.
The brief has both drawstring and pocket — at 15.8 inches bottom length, where is the pocket positioned?
At 15.8 inches bottom length, the pocket is a side slash pocket positioned in the mid-section of the shorts body, accessible above the hemline. The pocket is functional for storing small flat items before entering the water but will fill with water during active swimming.
