Hangdog Shorts are a reinvention of our classic Hangdog climbing shorts from the 90s. Only nowadays they've been revamped to suit to a more holistic, lifestyle-based approach to recreating outdoors.
Hangdogs are made from a soft but durable polycotton drill fabric that also has a wee bit of mechanical stretch. We've rigorously wear-tested these by spending heaps of time out biking and climbing in the Port Hills. Product development can be a hard job eh, but someone's gotta do it! We've come to the firm conclusion that Hangdogs are the ultimate go-to shorts for doing good, active stuff outdoors, and they don't leave you feeling like a dork at the cafe or bbq afterwards.
Available in any colour, as long as it's black.

These are Cactus's answer to 'softer' shorts. These have been through some rigorous wear testing and we have come to the firm conclusion that they are the ultimate summer go-to shorts for cycling, tramping and heading to the beach.
The SOS's are the shorts version of our Womens SOS Trousers. The same cut and fit, only shorter.
They're made from a lighter, polycotton drill fabric, which has mechanical stretch and is super durable - and our idea of durable is based on the Cactus Supershorts so we don't make that claim lightly.
Great features like quick drying fabric and mesh pockets, ideal for water drainage post jetty jumping. Triple stitched crotch. YKK zip and of course they come with our lifetime warranty on materials and workmanship.
Available in black only.

- The leg lengths of the standard SOS Shorts fit 95% of people just fine, but for those of you who need them shorter we can customise.
- If you would like your SOS Shorts hemmed to be shorter then you need to add Hem Shorter to this order where you can specify the length.
