Product Information
Full details
The Dickies Redhawk Pro Shorts in Navy are designed for adult men seeking durable and functional workwear for warm weather. Their key benefit is the combination of comfort, durability through triple stitching and reinforced pockets, and ample storage with multiple cargo and zipped pockets. A potential caveat is that the 260gsm fabric, while breathable, might not be as lightweight as some summer-specific options.

FAQs
What is the fabric composition of these shorts?
The Dickies Redhawk Pro Shorts are made from a durable blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, with a fabric weight of 260gsm.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
The fabric blend offers breathability, making them suitable for warm weather. However, the 260gsm weight is more robust than ultra-lightweight fabrics, providing a balance of durability and comfort.
How should I clean and care for my Dickies Redhawk Pro Shorts?
Machine wash cold with like colors, do not bleach, tumble dry low or hang dry, and use a cool iron if needed. Do not dry clean.
What kind of storage do these shorts offer?
They feature multiple cargo pockets for general storage, reinforced back pockets for durability, and zipped pockets for secure storage of smaller items. There is also a carpenter's loop for tools.
What does 'triple stitch detailing' mean for durability?
Triple stitching means that key stress points on the shorts have been sewn with three rows of stitching, significantly increasing their strength and resistance to tearing or unraveling during strenuous activity.
Can I wear these shorts for casual non-work activities?
Yes, while designed for work, their durable fabric and functional design make them suitable for casual wear, outdoor activities, or DIY projects where comfort and utility are desired.
What is the fit like on the Dickies Redhawk Pro Shorts?
These shorts typically have a regular fit, designed to provide comfort and ease of movement without being overly tight or excessively loose.
Troubleshooting
Seams unraveling prematurely
Ensure washing machine is not overloaded and use a gentle cycle. Avoid harsh detergents. If a specific seam is failing, consider a professional repair or reinforce it with heavy-duty thread.
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Apply a small amount of graphite (pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth. Gently work the zipper up and down to loosen it. Avoid forcing the zipper.
Pockets losing shape or becoming saggy
Avoid overloading pockets, especially with heavy or sharp objects. Ensure proper washing and drying to maintain fabric integrity. Consider using the carpenter's loop or a tool belt for heavier items.
Fabric feels rough after washing
Use a fabric softener sparingly during the rinse cycle, or try air-drying instead of machine drying. Wash with similar fabrics to minimize abrasion.
