Product Overview
The Spiro Recycled Men’s Shorts are a sophisticated choice for the modern professional, balancing technical performance with a clear commitment to environmental responsibility. Engineered to facilitate unrestricted movement, these shorts are crafted from a high-quality blend of recycled polyester and elastane. This choice of material ensures that the garment is not only smooth to the touch but also capable of meeting the rigorous physical demands of active work environments without losing its shape.
Key Features
- Hi-Tech Stretch Fabric: The inclusion of elastane provides exceptional shape retention and comfort, ensuring the shorts move with you rather than against you.
- Integral Inner Shorts: These provide additional coverage and support, featuring a dedicated pocket to keep small essentials secure against the body.
- Zipped Side Pockets: Two secure, zip-closing pockets prevent tools or personal items from falling out during high-intensity activity.
- Quick-Drying Properties: The performance fabric is designed to wick moisture and dry rapidly, maintaining wearer comfort throughout a full shift.
- Side Vents: Integrated vents allow for improved airflow, which is critical for temperature regulation in warmer working conditions.
Design & Performance
Constructed with a medium-weight performance fabric, the outer layer consists of 90% recycled polyester and 10% elastane. This combination results in a garment that is both lightweight and incredibly resilient. The design features twin-needle decorative stitching, which serves a dual purpose: providing a refined aesthetic while reinforcing the seams to ensure they do not fail under pressure. The elasticated waistband, complete with a drawcord, allows for a precise fit that remains secure regardless of the task at hand.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Despite their technical stretch nature, these shorts are an excellent canvas for professional branding. Embroidery is highly recommended for a superior finish on logos or names, providing a durable and prestigious appearance that withstands frequent laundering. For those requiring larger, more prominent graphics, our high-definition printing techniques offer a vibrant finish that complements the modern aesthetic of the garment.
Our in-house team at our Telford facility, established in 1976, oversees the entire customisation process. We apply our decades of expertise to ensure your branding is executed with precision, maintaining the integrity of the technical fabric while enhancing your professional identity.
Use Cases
These shorts are perfectly suited for professionals in the fitness industry, event management, or tradespeople working in outdoor or high-temperature environments. They are also a preferred choice for corporate wellness uniforms where a cohesive, professional look is required alongside athletic performance.

Practical Advice
The Spiro Recycled shorts offer a generous size range from XS through to 3XL. Due to the elasticated nature of the waistband and the drawcord adjustment, we recommend ordering your usual waist size for an optimal fit. For those who prefer a more relaxed feel around the thighs, the side vents provide that extra bit of room without compromising the structured look of the garment.
Caring for your product
To maintain the high-performance characteristics of the recycled polyester and elastane blend, it is important to follow the recommended care routine. We advise a domestic machine wash at 40°C. Washing at higher temperatures can damage the elastane fibres, which will eventually lead to the shorts losing their stretch and shape.
Please do not use bleach, as this will break down the recycled fibres and cause the colour to fade prematurely. These shorts must not be tumble dried or ironed. The heat from these appliances can melt the technical fibres and damage your custom embroidery or print. Given the quick-drying nature of the fabric, air-drying is the most effective and safest method.
Finally, do not dry clean this garment. The harsh chemicals used in the dry cleaning process are unnecessary for this fabric and can strip away the technical finishes that provide its smooth feel and quick-drying capabilities.
