Product Insights
The Twik Double-Pleated Dress Bermuda Short offers a tailored silhouette with a forgiving fit, thanks to an elastic back insert that adds 2-3 inches of stretch, allowing most buyers to stay true to size. The recycled polyester-viscose blend resists moderate wrinkles and maintains its crisp pleats when cared for by cold washing and air drying, then steaming or low-ironing along original creases. However, buyers report occasional light creasing after washing or sitting, which steaming readily restores, making the tradeoff between convenience and upkeep a manageable one for those seeking a polished, machine-washable short.

Deep Research
Washing and ironing to keep the pleats crisp
- High heat from a tumble dryer can break down recycled polyester fibres and flatten the heat-set pleats; air drying by hanging from the belt loops or laying flat with the front creases aligned preserves both the fabric integrity and the sharp pleat geometry.
- A handheld garment steamer releases light wrinkles and revives the front pleats without flattening them — the steamer's temperature stays below the melting point of recycled polyester while relaxing viscose fibres back into the heat-set fold.
- Viscose fibres can lose significant strength when saturated, so a machine wash in cold water (under 30°C/85°F) on a gentle cycle with a mild detergent prevents the fabric from stretching, pilling, or distorting along the double-pleat fold lines.
- Folding the shorts along the manufactured double-pleat lines or hanging by the belt loops prevents random creasing and reduces the need for re-ironing, especially important for the viscose component which tends to hold any new fold it acquires.
- Use an iron on the synthetic/silk setting (approximately 110°C/230°F) with a clean cotton cloth between the iron and the fabric to reactivate the pleat memory without scorching the patterned grey colourway or leaving shine marks on the polyester surface.

Yamamoto dupes
Nice and actually designed oversized. They make up a good yohji yamamoto dupe, but the fabric reflects the low price point, feels like plastic.
Q&A
2 answered- Is the fabric of these shorts prone to wrinkling due to the viscose content?
- Viscose is naturally prone to wrinkling, but the blend with recycled polyester helps reduce wrinkles. The fabric is likely to resist moderate wrinkling, though some light creasing may still occur after washing or sitting.
- How does the elastic insert at the back affect sizing? Should I size up if I have a larger waist?
- The elastic insert at the back waist adds stretch (typically 2–3 inches), so most customers can stay true to size. If you have a larger waist or are between sizes, you may size up for a more comfortable fit, but the elastic often accommodates without needing to size up.
