FAQs
What is the fabric composition of these shorts?
The shorts are made from a blend of 65% polyester and 35% cotton, with a fabric weight of 260gsm.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
They are designed for warm weather, offering more breathability than long trousers. However, the polyester blend may feel warmer than 100% cotton in extreme heat.
How do I determine my correct waist size?
Refer to a standard men's waist size chart. The UK size 46 corresponds to a specific waist measurement; ensure you measure your waist accurately before purchasing.
Can I machine wash these shorts?
Yes, you can machine wash them at a moderate temperature (around 40°C). Avoid using bleach.
What is the benefit of the triple stitching?
Triple stitching reinforces key stress areas, significantly increasing the durability and lifespan of the shorts, especially in demanding work environments.
Do these shorts have many pockets?
Yes, they feature reinforced back pockets and holster pockets, in addition to standard front and side pockets, offering ample storage.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel stiff after washing
This is normal for new, durable fabrics. Wear them for a short period, or tumble dry on low heat with a dryer sheet to soften them.
Seams appear to be fraying slightly
Examine the area closely. Minor fraying at the very edge of a seam allowance is normal. If significant threads are loose or seams are opening, contact customer support.
Pockets feel restrictive
Ensure items are placed correctly within the pockets. Holster pockets are designed for specific tools; try different placements. The fabric will soften and become more pliable with wear.
