Design & Performance
Constructed from a balanced blend of 50% polyester and 50% cotton, these shorts offer a medium-weight feel that is both breathable and resilient. The inclusion of polyester provides essential durability and colour retention, ensuring the shorts maintain their shape after repeated laundering. The cotton component provides a soft, natural touch against the skin, reducing the risk of chafing during exercise. This fabric composition is specifically chosen to withstand the rigours of school life and sports while remaining easy to maintain.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
These shorts are highly adaptable for customisation, accommodating both print and embroidery techniques with ease. For a professional appearance—such as school crests or club logos—embroidery provides a high-quality, textured finish that stands the test of time. Alternatively, print is an excellent choice for larger, more vibrant designs or sponsor names that require high visibility.
Our expert team in Telford has been refining these customisation processes since 1976. We handle every stage in-house, ensuring that your branding is applied with precision and care, resulting in a professional appearance that represents your organisation effectively.
Use Cases
The versatile design makes these shorts suitable for a wide range of environments. They are particularly well-suited for physical education kits, youth sports teams, and summer holiday clubs. Additionally, their understated, uni-patterned look makes them a sensible choice for relaxed school uniforms or general leisurewear.

Practical Advice
When selecting sizes, please note the range extends from 4/6 years (20") up to 13/14 years (27"). Because of the regular fit and elasticated nature of the mid-rise waist, we recommend choosing the size that matches the child's waist measurement for the most secure fit. These shorts are designed to be worn as a standalone outer layer in warmer conditions or over base layers in cooler environments.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of your shorts, it is essential to follow the recommended care instructions. Regular maintenance ensures the fabric remains soft and the custom branding stays intact.
We recommend a 30°C easy-care wash cycle. Using a lower temperature prevents the polyester-cotton fibres from degrading and protects any applied print or embroidery from heat-related damage.
Avoid using a hot iron on this garment. Excessive heat can scorch the fabric and will likely cause irreversible damage to any printed logos. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting and iron on the reverse side.
Do not tumble dry these shorts. Air drying is the preferred method to prevent shrinkage and to ensure the garment retains its original shape over time. Tumble drying can lead to premature wear of the fabric surface.
Dry cleaning should be avoided. The chemicals used in the dry cleaning process are unnecessary for this fabric blend and may negatively affect the integrity of the customisation.
