Product Overview
The Spiro Recycled Junior Shorts are a sophisticated solution for youth sports and active environments, prioritising both environmental responsibility and athletic performance. Constructed from a high-tech blend of recycled polyester and elastane, these shorts provide the necessary flexibility for unrestricted movement. The fabric is smooth to the touch and features a lightweight feel that prevents the wearer from being weighed down during high-intensity activity. An integrated inner short liner offers additional coverage and support, ensuring comfort remains a priority regardless of the task at hand.

Design & Performance
Engineering a garment for juniors requires a balance of durability and flexibility. These shorts utilise a recycled polyester and elastane blend that provides a multi-directional stretch, allowing for a full range of motion without the fabric becoming overstretched. The outer fabric is a lightweight material that is remarkably resilient, while the inner liner provides a soft, supportive layer against the skin. The addition of side vents is a deliberate design choice to enhance airflow, making these shorts suitable for rigorous physical activity or warmer environments.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
These shorts are an excellent canvas for both print and embroidery, depending on your specific requirements. For a formal club or school identity, embroidery provides a durable, professional finish that stands up well to repeated laundering. If you require larger, more vibrant graphics or sponsor logos, our high-quality printing process ensures high visibility and clarity. Our in-house team in Telford, drawing on expertise dating back to 1976, manages the entire customisation process to ensure your branding is executed with precision.
Use Cases
These shorts are ideally suited for junior sports teams, physical education kits, and youth outdoor organisations. Their professional appearance and durable construction also make them a viable option for junior staff roles in leisure or community environments where a cohesive, active uniform is required.

Practical Advice
When selecting sizes, please refer to our age-based guide which ranges from Small (5/6 years) to Extra Large (11/12 years). Due to the elasticated nature of the waistband, these shorts offer a degree of flexibility in fit, but for those between sizes, the drawcord allows for easy adjustment. For active outdoor use, these can be effectively layered over thermal base layers in cooler conditions.
Caring for your product
To maintain the performance and longevity of these recycled fabrics, we recommend a machine wash at 40°C. This temperature is sufficient to clean the technical fibres without causing thermal stress that could degrade the elastane over time.
It is important to avoid the use of bleach, as harsh chemicals will damage the recycled polyester fibres and cause the colour to fade prematurely. Similarly, these shorts should not be ironed; the heat from an iron can melt the synthetic components and ruin the smooth finish of the fabric.
To preserve the shape and elastic properties of the garment, do not tumble dry or dry clean. Allowing the shorts to air dry is the most effective way to ensure they retain their shape and that any custom embroidery or print remains in optimal condition.
