Product Overview
The Tombo Kids double-layer sports shorts are a technically proficient garment designed to withstand the rigours of school sports and club training. By integrating a lightweight outer shell with a supportive inner layer, these shorts offer a solution that balances coverage with absolute freedom of movement. They are engineered specifically for active youths who require performance-driven apparel that remains comfortable throughout high-intensity physical education or competitive play.
Key Features
- Four-way stretch microfibre fabric ensures the garment moves with the wearer, preventing restriction during dynamic activity.
- An integrated interlock undershort provides a secure, compressed fit, offering modest coverage and reducing the risk of chafing.
- Moisture-wicking technology actively draws perspiration away from the skin to the fabric surface, ensuring the wearer remains dry and focused.
- A tear-out label facilitates easy rebranding, making these an excellent choice for custom school or club kits without internal irritation.
Design & Performance
The technical construction relies on a high-elastane blend—10% in the outer microfibre and 12% in the undershort—which provides the necessary 'snap-back' and structural integrity required for sportswear. The outer fabric is a lightweight microfibre, chosen for its breathability and durability. Inside, the interlock undershort is a slightly more substantial fabric that offers a locked-in feel without adding unnecessary bulk. Together, these layers manage heat and moisture efficiently, a critical factor for younger athletes.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
Despite the technical and stretchy nature of these shorts, they are well-suited for both print and embroidery. For a professional club finish or a school crest, embroidery provides a durable, high-quality aesthetic that stands up to frequent laundering. Alternatively, for bold team names or large-scale branding, high-quality heat-transfer printing is an effective option that maintains the garment's flexibility. Our in-house team in Telford, drawing on nearly five decades of experience, ensures every logo is applied with technical precision.
Use Cases
These shorts are primarily intended for school PE uniforms, football or athletics clubs, and youth training sessions. Their dual-layer design also makes them an appropriate choice for casual activewear where additional support is preferred over standard single-layer shorts.

Practical Advice
When selecting sizes, consider that the interlock undershort is designed to be a close fit. If a child is between sizes or prefers a looser feel around the thighs, opting for the larger size in the range may be beneficial. These shorts layer exceptionally well under tracksuits for cold-weather warm-ups.
Caring for your product
To maintain the technical performance of the moisture-wicking fibres, we recommend a synthetic wash at 30°C. Washing at higher temperatures can degrade the elastane over time, causing the shorts to lose their shape and elasticity.
It is vital to avoid fabric softeners; these chemicals coat the fibres and significantly reduce the moisture-wicking capabilities of the polyester. Similarly, avoid bleach, as it will weaken the fabric and compromise the vibrancy of any custom branding.
Air-drying is essential, as tumble-drying can lead to shrinkage and heat damage to the print or embroidery. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting on the reverse of the garment to protect the fabric and any decorative elements.
