FAQs

What material are the Carhartt WIP Brandon Shorts made of?

These specific shorts are made from a velvet fabric, offering a unique texture and aesthetic. Please refer to the product description for exact material composition.

How should I clean the velvet shorts?

It is recommended to check the care label. Generally, hand wash in cold water or use a delicate machine cycle with mild detergent. Air dry and avoid high heat. Iron on the reverse side at a low temperature if needed.

Are these shorts suitable for active wear?

While made with Carhartt WIP's durable construction, the velvet material is best suited for casual wear and light activities rather than high-impact sports or very rugged use.

What makes the 'Velvet Green' color unique?

The 'Velvet Green' color is a rich, distinctive hue that is enhanced by the texture of the velvet fabric, creating a sophisticated and eye-catching appearance.

Can I wear these shorts in different seasons?

The velvet fabric offers a unique texture suitable for transitional weather or cooler summer evenings. They can be styled for various seasons depending on the accompanying apparel.

What is the fit like on the Brandon Short?

The Brandon Short features a regular fit, designed for comfort and ease of movement without being too loose or too tight.

Troubleshooting

Velvet texture appears flattened or matted

Gently brush the affected area with a soft-bristled brush or use a steamer on a low setting to help restore the nap of the velvet. Avoid pressing down too hard.

Color fading after washing

Ensure you are washing the shorts in cold water and using a color-safe detergent. Washing inside out can also help protect the color. Refer to the care label for specific washing instructions.

Shrinking after drying

Avoid high heat during washing and drying. Always air dry or use a very low heat setting if the care label permits. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric while damp.
