Common Questions
Pants/Shorts Buying Guide FAQ
How do I pick the right inseam?
Measure a pair that fits you well from crotch to hem. Add 1-2cm if you want a slight stack.
Are cargo pockets usually accurate?
Pocket placement and flap shape are common flaws. Ask for a flat-lay photo showing both sides for symmetry comparison.
Do shorts use the same blanks as pants?
Often, yes — the same factory produces both. Shorts may use lighter fabric, so check the GSM separately.
Should I worry about fading?
Black reps can fade to charcoal after washes. If colorfastness matters, ask the seller about dye quality or wash cold.
