FAQs
What is the main benefit of the double knee design?
The double knee design provides extra reinforcement and durability in an area that experiences significant wear and tear, making the shorts more resistant to abrasion and suitable for light work.
What is the material composition of these shorts?
The shorts are made from a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, offering a balance of durability, comfort, and ease of care.
Are these shorts suitable for hot weather?
While the cotton blend offers some breathability, the polyester content may make them feel warmer than 100% cotton shorts in very high temperatures. They are best suited for moderate to warm weather.
How should I care for my Postal Double Knee Shorts?
It is recommended to machine wash cold with like colors, avoid bleach, and tumble dry low or hang dry. Iron on medium heat if needed, avoiding direct heat on any logo elements.
What does 'regular fit' mean for these shorts?
A regular fit means the shorts are designed to be comfortable and not too tight or too loose. They offer a standard silhouette that allows for ease of movement without being baggy.
Can I wear these shorts for actual construction work?
While they are inspired by workwear and have durable features like double knees, they are primarily intended for casual wear. For heavy-duty construction, dedicated work pants are recommended.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight/loose
Consult the Carhartt WIP size chart and compare with your measurements. Consider trying a different size if available. The regular fit is designed for comfort, not a body-hugging feel.
Fabric pilling or excessive wrinkling
Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions. Washing inside out and air drying can help minimize pilling and reduce deep wrinkles.
Color fading
Wash the shorts in cold water with mild detergent and avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying. Washing with similar dark colors can also help maintain color vibrancy.
