Recycled Polyester is a fabric made from recycled plastic materials, such as water bottles or ocean plastic. It’s important because it helps reduce waste and minimizes the environmental impact compared to traditional polyester, which is derived from petroleum. By choosing products made from Recycled Polyester, you’re supporting sustainable practices and helping to protect our planet. DWR Treatment, or Durable Water Repellent, is a special coating applied to fabrics that makes them water-resistant. This means that light rain or spills won’t soak through the fabric immediately, keeping you dry and comfortable during outdoor activities. It’s especially beneficial for those who enjoy hiking, camping, or any activities where you might encounter wet conditions.

Four-Way Stretch refers to a fabric's ability to stretch in all directions—up and down, as well as side to side. This feature enhances comfort and allows for greater freedom of movement, making it ideal for active pursuits like running, hiking, or climbing. With Four-Way Stretch, you can move more freely without feeling restricted.

The inseam measurement indicates the length of the inner seam of the shorts, from the crotch to the bottom hem. For example, a 4.5-inch inseam is designed for a shorter fit, which can be more comfortable for physical activities. To find the right inseam for you, consider your height and personal preference for how long you like your shorts to be during workouts or casual wear.

An Elastic Waist with Drawcord provides a comfortable and adjustable fit around your waist. The elastic material stretches to accommodate your body, while the drawcord allows you to tighten or loosen the waistband as needed. This feature ensures that your shorts stay securely in place during movement, making them perfect for active wear and providing peace of mind during workouts.
