Product Insights
These $19.99 Simons Casual Cotton Bermudas, true to size with an adjustable waist, shrink 2–5% upon first wash—manageable with cold water and hang drying, which also softens the fabric and preserves shape and color. The organic cotton breathes, wicks moisture, resists odors, dries quickly, and reduces wash frequency, while being gentle on sensitive skin. However, the shorts are not for swimming; they absorb water, become heavy, and turn semi-transparent when wet, so darker underwear is advised. Pockets are deep enough for a phone but lack closures.

Deep Research
How organic cotton feels and wears over time
- Cotton's natural fiber structure resists the bacterial colonization that makes synthetic garments permanently hold body smells, so these shorts can go from an active beach day to a casual dinner without trapping funky odors — a practical advantage for travel when laundry access is limited.
- The natural wicking behavior of organic cotton pulls sweat and dampness away from the skin and exposes it to the air for rapid evaporation — unlike polyester beachwear that traps moisture against the body, these shorts will dry on the body faster and keep you from feeling clammy after a dip.
- Organic cotton fibers relax under water and mechanical action instead of degrading, meaning these bermudas will shed their initial crispness after the first few washes and then continue to soften each time they're laundered — a garment that feels better at the end of summer than it did out of the package.
- Since organic cultivation prohibits synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, the cotton arrives at the mill without residual agrochemicals that can activate skin sensitivities — for anyone prone to heat rash or post-sun irritation, a 100% organic cotton short is a lower-reactivity barrier against the elements.
- The hollow core of organic cotton fibers allows air to move through the weave more freely than solid synthetic filaments, so these shorts will feel noticeably less stifling on a hot, windless beach — the same structural openness that makes a cotton tee feel cool also keeps this cover-up from turning into a personal sauna.

Q&A
5 answered- Does this bermuda run true to size, and is the elastic waist accommodating for those between sizes?
- Yes, these bermudas run true to size, and the drawcord-adjustable elastic waist comfortably accommodates those between sizes.
- Will the 100% organic cotton shrink after washing, and if so, by how much?
- 100% organic cotton can shrink when washed, typically 2–5% depending on care. We recommend cold water and hang drying to minimize shrinkage; the care instructions suggest machine wash and hang dry.
- Are these bermudas suitable for swimming or just for lounging at the beach?
- These bermudas are designed for lounging at the beach, not for swimming. The 100% organic cotton weave absorbs water and becomes heavy when wet, making them unsuitable for swimming.
- Is the fabric of the bermudas opaque enough to not show underwear when wet?
- The organic cotton weave may become somewhat translucent when wet, so underwear may be visible. We recommend darker colors or darker underwear; no specific opacity rating is provided.
- How deep are the side slit pockets? Can they hold a phone securely?
- Side slit pockets are typically deep enough to hold a phone securely, but we do not have exact measurements. They are side slit pockets, which usually provide a secure hold for small items like phones.
