Steps To Follow

  1. Start by checking the tag to determine what type of fabric your board shorts are made from, as this will help you decide how best to tackle stains.
  2. If the tag states that the fabric is pre-shrunk, it’s safe to proceed with the next step: fill a bucket or sink with cold water and add a few drops of mild liquid detergent, such as Woolite.
  3. Let board shorts soak in solution for at least one hour before gently rubbing the stains with a soft-bristled brush.
  4. Rinse shorts with cold water and place them in the washer on a cold water cycle with a detergent specially formulated for delicates.
  5. Once wash cycle is finished, check to see if stains are still visible. If so, repeat the process.
  6. Finally, hang the board shorts to air dry in a cool, dry location.
