How do you care for women's shorts?

How you care for your shorts will depend on what material the garments are made from. It's always best to consult the tag for detailed care recommendations.

  • Denim shorts like any other jean clothing should be washed inside out to prevent fading and aging. Air-drying or using the lowest dryer setting will help prevent denim shorts from shrinking.
  • Cotton should be washed with the gentle cycle in cold water, unless you are intending for the material to shrink for a better fit. Cotton works well when it is lined-dried instead of thrown into the dryer.
  • Manmade materials such as polyester or nylon can be washed on a normal cycle and dried in a dryer on low heat.
  • Anything with embellishments such as studs, rhinestones, or embroidery should be hand washed. Washing these materials in a washing machine may make them come loose from the material.
  • No matter what material your garment is made from, it is recommended to only wash with like colours. Whites may be bleached, though it is always best to check the care tag.
