FAQs

What is the main material of the shorts?

The shorts are primarily made from heavyweight 100% cotton denim.

How do the shorts fit?

They feature a relaxed fit with a low crotch for comfort and freedom of movement.

What does 'stone-dyed' mean?

Stone-dyeing is a process that gives the fabric a washed-out, vintage appearance, often with subtle variations in color.

Can I machine dry these shorts?

It is recommended to avoid high-temperature tumble drying. Line drying or tumble drying on low heat is best to preserve the material.

Are these shorts suitable for workwear?

While inspired by workwear, their relaxed fit and modern styling make them more suited for casual and urban wear, though they are durable enough for light-duty tasks.

How should I care for the woven Square Label?

The woven label is durable. Follow the general care instructions for the shorts to ensure its longevity.

What is the benefit of the back yoke design?

The back yoke is a traditional construction detail from workwear that helps improve the fit and add durability to the seat of the shorts.

Troubleshooting

Shrinking after washing

Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding high-temperature tumble drying. If slight shrinkage occurred, the relaxed fit should still provide comfort.

Color fading unevenly

This is a characteristic of the stone-dyeing process, contributing to the vintage look. Wash with like colors to minimize impact on other garments.

Zipper is stiff

Gently work the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a silicone-based lubricant to the teeth can help.
