Trade Supershorts Mens

The Trade Supershorts are a true, fully featured work short for those who's work demands it. We've taken the Trade Supertrousers kept all the best bits and removed everything below the knee. Your essentials are all close at hand with dedicated pockets for a cellphone, ruler, and punches or measuring tape and a reinforced hammer loop that stands out for easy use. The large main pockets at the waist are external so the contents don’t get in the way so much when you crouch down. Those pockets are tough enough for a handful of nails or screws occasionally, but we’ve tried crouching down with screws in our pockets and it isn’t that pleasant. Two full size pockets at the back give you a place for the “can you just pick some stuff up from the supermarket on your way home” shopping list. The belt loops are wide enough to take a full width equipment belt.

Antelope, Black and Olive are all made from our Ultra C-Canvas.

• Essentially, Canvas Supertrousers and Supershorts require a bit of a wear-in period to soften the fabric.
• The first three or so washes should be done by hand, then you should be right to machine wash.
• Use cold water with a mild powder detergent, rinse thoroughly, very gentle or no spin and line-dry.
• Do not iron, dry clean, spin-dry or use bleach.
• When new, the stiffness of the fabric means it creases in points rather than soft folds - washing them in an aggressive or hot machine can cause damage on the crease points.
• Our canvas also has a waterproofing agent which, if washed in an aggressive or hot machine, can shift and discolour. This will appear as white lines which cannot be removed.
• Washing inside out will minimise lighter coloured creases on the outside of the fabric, but won’t remove stains quite as well.
• Drip dry without creases (it won't take long as the polyester in the fabric doesn't hold much water)
• Close zips while washing (they'll last longer)
• Note that all the colours will lighten with use and washing as the natural cotton content of the fabric won't take a dye fixative in the same way as a 100% synthetic fabric.
• If you get attacked by a pig and the fabric gets holed while saving your reproductive potential send them back and we'll patch ‘em for a small fee
• If you are still not sure, give us a call or flick us an email
