To keep your board shorts in the best condition possible, always hand

wash in cold water and line dry. In terms of detergent, small amounts of gentle

helps keep your board shorts clean, but prolongs the life of the DWR coating on

them. Care instructions are also listed on the inside of every pair of Hurley board shorts.
