FAQs
What does 'Carpenter Skater' style mean?
This style combines elements of traditional carpenter workwear, such as reinforced pockets and a hammer loop, with the looser fit and aesthetic popular in skate fashion.
What is the 'Kenny' wash?
The 'Kenny' wash refers to an authentic mid-stone wash, a classic denim finish that offers a versatile and slightly faded appearance.
How much stretch is in the fabric?
The denim blend includes a 'touch of stretch' for added comfort and freedom of movement, complementing the loose fit.
Are these shorts suitable for very hot weather?
Yes, the loose fit and breathable denim material make them a comfortable choice for warm weather activities.
What is the length of the shorts?
These shorts feature a Bermuda cut, meaning they are cut for a longer length that typically finishes under the knee.
Can I wear these shorts if I don't skate or do construction work?
Absolutely. The 'Carpenter Skater' style is a fashion designation. The shorts are designed for everyday wear and appeal to those who appreciate the utilitarian and relaxed aesthetic.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too large
Due to the intended oversized fit, consider ordering a size down if you prefer a less baggy silhouette. Always check the specific measurement chart for this model.
Denim appears stiff
New denim can be stiff. Wear the shorts frequently to help them break in naturally. Washing them in cold water according to care instructions can also aid in softening the fabric over time.
Color fading after washing
Ensure you are washing in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents. Washing inside out can also help protect the denim's color.
