Product Overview
The Build Your Brandit Savage vintage shorts offer a robust solution for those requiring both utility and a distinct aesthetic. Crafted from a sturdy, medium-weight cotton, these cargo shorts have undergone a specific mechanical treatment to achieve a deliberate worn-and-washed-out appearance. This design ensures that the garment doesn't just look the part but is ready for the rigours of an active workday or outdoor adventure from the moment it is first worn. The combination of a wide-leg cut and functional pocket configuration makes them a versatile addition to any professional summer uniform.
Key Features
- Included belt: This eliminates the need to source a separate accessory and ensures a secure, adjustable fit that remains comfortable throughout a shift.
- Expansive leg pockets: These provide essential storage for tools, mobile devices, or documentation, keeping your hands free for the task at hand.
- Two attached mini-pockets: Specifically designed for smaller items that might otherwise be lost in larger cargo compartments, ensuring better organisation.
- Wide leg design: Facilitates a full range of motion, which is vital when navigating work sites or performing tasks that require significant movement.
Design & Performance
Performance is rooted in the 100% cotton outer fabric, which provides a natural, breathable feel while maintaining high resistance to daily wear. The mechanical aging process does more than just add style; it softens the fabric, reducing the initial stiffness often found in heavy-duty utility wear. The lining, a blend of polyester and cotton, adds structural integrity to the interior, ensuring the shorts retain their shape even when the pockets are fully loaded. The medium-weight construction strikes a balance between being substantial enough for protection and light enough for comfort in warmer environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
These shorts serve as an excellent canvas for professional branding. Given the durable cotton construction, embroidery is highly recommended for company logos and staff names, providing a sophisticated, permanent finish that withstands regular laundering. For those looking to make a bolder statement or rebrand for retail purposes, print options are equally effective on the flat surfaces of the cargo pockets. Our Telford-based team, with expertise dating back to 1976, ensures every stitch and print is executed with precision to maintain your brand's professional appearance.
Use Cases
These shorts are ideally suited for tradespeople working in warmer climates or during the summer months when full trousers are impractical. They are equally popular for outdoor events staff, delivery drivers, and professionals in the leisure industry. The street-casual aesthetic also makes them a prime choice for fashion-forward company uniforms or retail rebranding projects where a "used" look is desired.

Practical Advice
These shorts feature a wide-leg cut for enhanced comfort; however, we recommend checking the waist measurements carefully to ensure the best fit. The size range spans from Small (31") to 2XL (39"). The included belt is designed to accommodate minor fluctuations in fit, but for the most professional appearance, selecting the correct waist size is paramount.
Caring for your product
To preserve the vintage finish and the integrity of your custom branding, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C. Using higher temperatures can lead to premature fading of the fabric and may degrade the threads used in custom embroidery or the adhesive in prints.
Chlorine-based bleach must be avoided entirely. Bleach will strip the carefully applied vintage colour and can cause permanent damage to the cotton fibres and your custom branding.
We advise against tumble drying; instead, allow the shorts to air dry naturally. Tumble drying can cause unnecessary shrinkage and place stress on the seams. If ironing is required, use a low heat setting and avoid direct contact with any printed areas to prevent the design from being damaged.
Dry cleaning is not recommended, as the chemical solvents used in the process can be too harsh for the treated cotton and the internal lining materials.
