Sizing and fit details

What is recycled polyester?

Recycled polyester (rPET for short) is a fabric that’s produced from synthetic fibers. Recycled polyester is produced by recycling existing materials (like plastic bottles and packaging) but still has all the characteristics and performance as a regular polyester, making it a more sustainable fabric alternative.

How’s recycled polyester made?

Recycled polyester is made by crushing plastic products into small pieces. These small pieces are then processed into yarn, transformed into a fiber, and in the end—made into a fabric.

What are the advantages of recycled polyester?

Producing rPet takes 33% to 53% less energy than creating polyester from scratch. Also, rPet produces approximately 54.6% fewer CO2 emissions to the air than virgin polyester

Awesome shorts

They fit and feel amazing! Can wear them in the pool and just lounging around. The liner is much better than your traditional swim suits with the mesh. Will continue to shop here

Lightweight and stretch

Really like the fit on this style. Fabric is really lightweight and I like the liner, its actual shorts underneath and soft with great stretch. Adds some support without being restrictive. Haven't tried them for swimming yet but seem like they will dry super quickly.
