To use these Cuba Tie Bottoms, simply put them on like regular swim bottoms and adjust the side ties for a perfect fit. Remember, since this is a final sale item, it can't be returned. When it comes to maintenance, rinse them with fresh water after each use to remove salt, sand, and chlorine. Hang them to dry in the shade to prevent the colors from fading. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach as they can damage the fabric.
