Product Overview
The SFM82 Tartan Lounge Shorts from SF are a well-constructed choice for those seeking comfort without sacrificing a professional, branded appearance. Crafted from 100% cotton flannel with a traditional twill weave, these shorts provide a soft-touch finish that is both breathable and aesthetically classic. The woven tartan pattern offers a timeless look, while the tear-out label design ensures that businesses can easily rebrand these garments as part of a bespoke loungewear range or corporate gift set.
Key Features
- 100% Cotton Flannel Twill: The use of pure cotton in a twill weave provides a soft, brushed texture that feels comfortable against the skin while maintaining the fabric's integrity.
- Elasticated Waist with Mock Drawcord: The full elasticated waistband ensures a secure and flexible fit across various body types, complemented by a contrast mock drawcord for added visual detail.
- Tear-Out Label: Designed specifically for rebranding, the label can be removed cleanly, allowing your own company branding to take centre stage.
- Plain Hem: The clean, simple hemline provides a neat finish that prevents fraying and maintains the garment's shape over time.
Design & Performance
These shorts are engineered from a lightweight fabric, making them ideal for indoor use and relaxation. The twill weave is a deliberate choice; it provides a more robust structure than a simple plain weave, ensuring the shorts can withstand regular wear while remaining exceptionally soft. The woven tartan is not merely printed on the surface but is part of the fabric's construction, ensuring the pattern remains sharp and does not peel or fade like inferior printed alternatives.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Despite the intricate tartan pattern, these shorts are well-suited for professional customisation. For a refined, high-end look, we recommend embroidery. Our Telford-based team can expertly stitch your logo or company name onto the leg or hip, providing a durable and textured finish that elevates the garment. For larger, more vibrant designs, textile printing is also an option, particularly for promotional events where bold visibility is required. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has refined the art of customisation to ensure your branding remains as resilient as the garment itself.
Use Cases
The SFM82 is an excellent choice for several professional applications. They are frequently used as part of premium promotional gift sets, particularly for festive campaigns or corporate giveaways. They also serve well as branded merchandise for the hospitality and leisure sectors, such as spa retreats or boutique hotels looking to offer high-quality loungewear to their guests.

Practical Advice
These shorts are available in a broad size range from XS to 2XL. Given the elasticated nature of the waistband, they offer a degree of flexibility in fit, but we recommend referring to the specific waist measurements provided to ensure the most comfortable experience for the wearer. They pair excellently with a plain, neutral-coloured t-shirt to allow the tartan pattern to remain the focal point of the outfit.
Caring for your product
To maintain the soft handle of the cotton flannel and the vibrancy of the tartan pattern, we recommend a domestic wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can lead to unnecessary shrinkage of the natural cotton fibres and may prematurely degrade the elasticated waistband.
It is important to wash dark colours separately to prevent dye transfer onto the lighter sections of the tartan weave. To preserve the shape and longevity of the garment, do not tumble dry; instead, allow the shorts to dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight, which can make natural fibres brittle.
Avoid the use of bleach, as this will destroy the integrity of the cotton and ruin the woven pattern. If ironing is required to restore the twill's smooth finish, use a low temperature setting to avoid scorching the fabric.
