To use the Caya Drawstring Bottom, simply put it on like regular swim bottoms. Adjust the drawstrings at the front and back to your comfort level for a perfect fit. When wearing it, remember this is a final - sale item and can't be returned, so choose carefully. For maintenance, rinse it with fresh water after each use to remove salt, sand, and chlorine. Hang it to dry in a shaded area to prevent the color from fading. Avoid using harsh detergents or bleach as they may damage the fabric.
