Carhartt WIP Chase Swim Shorts - Our FAQs

1. How quickly do these shorts actually dry?
   Due to the lightweight polyester and water-repellent coating, these shorts shed water rapidly. In sunny conditions, they are often dry to the touch within minutes of leaving the water.

2. Is the mesh lining comfortable for all-day wear?
   Yes, the soft mesh is designed to be non-abrasive against the skin, providing support without the irritation often found in lower-quality swim trunks.

3. What is the purpose of the key holder in the back pocket?
   This is a small elasticated loop inside the rear pocket. It allows you to secure your locker or house key so it remains attached to the shorts even while you are diving or swimming.

4. Will the gold embroidery fade or peel?
   The "C" logo is densely embroidered rather than printed, meaning it is highly durable and will not peel or fade through repeated exposure to sun and water.
