Product Overview
The Result Work-Guard recycled dynamic stretch shorts represent a significant advancement in sustainable workwear, balancing a professional, tailored silhouette with the rugged functionality required for active site work. Designed for the modern tradesperson who demands both comfort and a sharp appearance, these medium-weight shorts utilise advanced textile technology to ensure they move with the wearer while maintaining their structural integrity over time.
Key Features
- Seven-Pocket Utility: Features a comprehensive array of storage, including a reinforced ruler pocket, multicompartment thigh pockets, and expandable back pockets to keep essential tools within reach.
- Treble-Stitched Seams: Critical stress points are reinforced with triple stitching to prevent seam failure during strenuous movements, significantly extending the garment's lifespan.
- Dynamic Stretch Fabric: The elastomultiester fibres provide mechanical stretch that springs back to shape, preventing the sagging often associated with traditional fabrics.
- Side-Elasticated Waistband: Designed with a high back for better coverage and a secure fit, ensuring the shorts stay in place regardless of the task at hand.
- Moisture-Wicking Properties: The technical fabric actively pulls perspiration away from the skin, keeping the wearer cool and dry during high-intensity work or warmer weather.
Design & Performance
These shorts are engineered from a sophisticated blend of 50% recycled polyester twill and 50% elastomultiester polyester. This specific composition is notable for being elastane-free and TPU-free, relying instead on the unique structure of elastomultiester to provide stretch. This choice is more sustainable and results in a fabric that is highly resistant to damage and degradation. The wrinkle-free finish ensures a professional appearance is maintained throughout the workday, even after repeated crouching or sitting.
The slim fit offers a more contemporary look without restricting movement, while the inclusion of a hammer loop and belt loops ensures full functionality for various trades. The use of a zip fly with a durable rivet fastening provides a secure and reliable closure for long-term use.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth twill surface and substantial weight of these shorts make them an excellent candidate for both print and embroidery. For a truly professional and long-lasting finish, we recommend embroidery for company logos or staff names, typically applied to the thigh or back pockets. This adds a premium touch that withstands industrial laundering.
Alternatively, heat-applied print is ideal for larger, more vibrant branding if you require high visibility for your company identity. Our expert team in Telford, with decades of experience since 1976, will ensure your branding is applied with precision, maintaining the garment's performance while enhancing your business's professional image.
Use Cases
These shorts are ideally suited for carpenters, electricians, and engineers who require high mobility and numerous tool-storage options during the summer months. They are equally effective for site managers and surveyors who need to transition between a professional office environment and active site visits without compromising on style or durability.

Practical Advice
The slim-fit nature of these shorts provides a closer cut to the leg. If you prefer a more relaxed fit or frequently carry bulky items in your pockets, you may wish to consider this when selecting your size. The side-elasticated waistband provides some flexibility, but accurate measurement of the natural waist is recommended for the best results.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and stretch characteristics of these shorts, we recommend a domestic machine wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to remove site grime while protecting the technical fibres and any custom branding from heat damage.
Avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will degrade the recycled polyester fibres and cause discolouration. To preserve the shape and finish, these shorts should not be tumble dried; instead, hang them to air dry. If ironing is required, use a low temperature setting to prevent melting the synthetic fibres or damaging the elastomultiester's stretch memory.
Dry cleaning is not recommended for this garment, as the chemical solvents used can strip the moisture-wicking properties and compromise the integrity of the fabric and print applications.
