Can you please provide more color options for this product? I love the design and quality but would prefer a darker shade. Does it come in sizes extra-large for bigger boys?

I got these shorts for my grandson’s birthday and he absolutely loves them! They fit perfectly and are so comfy. The only thing that would make them perfect is having a bit more pocket space. Does the company plan to add more pockets to future designs?

I recently went on a hot spring trip and these shorts saved my skin! They dried super quickly and felt amazing against my skin. What fabric blend do they use? I want to get more shorts like these for future outdoor adventures.
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for your wonderful review of the Mares Tek Shorts! We’re thrilled to hear that they performed well in a hot spring environment. The fabric blend used in the Mares Tek Shorts is a combination of 80% Polyester, 18% Elastane, and 2% Nylon. This blend provides a comfortable, moisture-wicking fabric that dries quickly. If you’re looking for more shorts with similar features, we recommend checking out our other outdoor adventure options. Would you like to hear more about our other products or have any further questions?

These shorts are great for casual wear or water activities, but I wish they had a water-resistant coating to give extra protection. Do you have any plans to release a weathered or water-resistant version of this shorts?

The Mares Tek Shorts have been my go-to choice for beach trips and casual outings. I like the snug fit and how they stay put even in windy weather. One thing I don’t like is how the crotch area can get heavy with water after a swim. A minor design tweak could fix that problem.
Emily Tan –
I recently purchased the Mares Tek Shorts and I must say, it’s a game-changer for my workouts. The material is super soft and breathable, making it perfect for high-intensity exercises. The fit is also very flattering and comfortable. However, I wish the shorts came in more colors.

Are the Mares Tek Shorts suitable for long distance running?
Junhao Lo –
We appreciate you reaching out to us about the Mares Tek Shorts and their suitability for long distance running. Although the Mares Tek Shorts are designed for active water sports such as diving and snorkeling, they can still be suitable for running in certain circumstances. Their quick-drying mesh fabric and four-way stretch make them quite comfortable. However, we recommend choosing a pair of shorts that are specifically designed for running, as they will likely provide more support and breathability for long distance running. Would you like to explore more of our running shorts collection?
Sarah Yong –

Alicia Wong –
Do you think the Mares Tek Shorts would be comfortable for yoga sessions?
Imran Hanafiah –
Thank you for your question, Alicia. Our Mares Tek Shorts are designed with comfort in mind. They feature a four-way stretch material that allows for a full range of motion, making them ideal for yoga sessions. Additionally, they have a soft and breathable design to keep you cool and dry during your practice. However, comfort is subjective, and we recommend trying them out for yourself to see how they feel.
