Product Overview
The ProRTX Pro cargo shorts are a strategic addition to any summer workwear wardrobe, designed specifically for professionals who require the utility of cargo trousers but need the breathability of a shorter garment. Manufactured from a resilient polycotton blend, these shorts are engineered to endure the daily rigours of the workplace while keeping the wearer cool and focused on the task at hand.
Key Features

- Multiple storage options: Features two side front pockets, a rear patch pocket, and two side cargo pockets with flaps to keep essential items secure and accessible.
- Inclusive sizing: Available from Small to 4XL, ensuring a consistent uniform appearance across your entire workforce.
Design & Performance
The fabric composition of 65% polyester and 35% cotton is a deliberate choice for performance workwear. The high polyester content provides excellent abrasion resistance and ensures the shorts maintain their shape and colour after numerous wash cycles. This is balanced by the cotton, which provides a comfortable feel against the skin and facilitates airflow, essential for temperature regulation in warmer environments. The medium-weight fabric offers a substantial feel that denotes quality without being overly heavy.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
These cargo shorts are well-suited for both print and embroidery, allowing for a versatile approach to branding. Embroidery is highly recommended for company logos or individual names, providing a sophisticated and durable finish that projects a professional appearance. For larger, more impactful designs, our high-quality printing service provides a sharp and vibrant alternative. Our in-house team in Telford, drawing on expertise dating back to 1976, manages the entire process to ensure your branding is executed to the highest standard.
Use Cases
These shorts are the ideal choice for tradespeople, delivery drivers, and warehouse operatives who are active in high-temperature environments. They offer the perfect balance of utility and comfort for anyone who requires ample pocket space for tools or mobile devices while working outdoors or in unconditioned buildings during the summer months.

Practical Advice
When selecting your size, please note the traditional waistband design which offers a fixed, secure fit. We recommend wearing a belt if you intend to utilise the side cargo pockets for heavier items to ensure the shorts remain correctly positioned. This garment is part of a wider ProRTX range, making it easy to coordinate with matching polo shirts or sweatshirts for a cohesive company look.
Caring for your product
To maintain the appearance and functional life of your shorts, we recommend a domestic machine wash at 40°C. This temperature is effective for removing typical workplace grime without causing excessive wear to the polycotton fibres.
Do not use bleach, as this will chemically damage the fabric and lead to significant fading of the colour and any applied logos. If tumble drying, use a low heat setting to prevent potential shrinkage and to maintain the integrity of the seams.
Should you need to iron the shorts, use a low heat setting. Avoid direct contact with any printed areas to ensure the branding remains intact. These shorts are also suitable for dry cleaning if required for specific industrial cleaning protocols.
