Product Overview
The Wombat Men's Palm Print Shorts (WB905) represent a sophisticated take on seasonal attire, blending classic tailoring with a subtle coastal aesthetic. Constructed from a cotton-rich fabric with a soft-touch finish, these shorts are designed for comfort during extended wear in warmer climates. The palm print detailing adds a distinct visual element without compromising the garment's professional utility, making them an excellent choice for front-of-house hospitality or travel-related uniforms.
Key Features
- Two swing pockets and two back jet pockets provide ample storage for personal items while maintaining a sleek, uncluttered profile.
- A traditional zip fly and button fastening ensure a secure and reliable fit for daily activities.
- Integrated belt loops allow the wearer to pair these shorts with a leather or canvas belt for a more refined appearance.
- The inclusion of rollable hems offers flexibility in styling, allowing for a customisable length to suit various tasks or environments.
Design & Performance
The fabric composition of 98% cotton and 2% elastane strikes an ideal balance between breathability and flexibility. The cotton provides a soft, medium-weight feel that is comfortable against the skin, while the elastane provides enough stretch to ensure freedom of movement—a critical requirement for active roles. The soft-finish fabric not only enhances the wearer's comfort but also ensures a premium texture that resists the harsh feel often associated with lower-quality synthetic alternatives.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
These shorts are fully compatible with both print and embroidery, offering versatile options for your branding requirements. Embroidery is particularly effective on this medium-weight cotton, providing a textured, superior finish for corporate logos or staff names that stands the test of time. For larger, more vibrant graphics or promotional messaging, our high-precision printing techniques ensure the design remains sharp against the palm print pattern.
Our dedicated in-house team in Telford has been perfecting garment customisation since 1976, ensuring that every piece of workwear reflects the professional standards of your business.
Use Cases
These shorts are perfectly suited for professionals working in the hospitality and tourism sectors, particularly in resort or coastal locations. They serve as an excellent uniform choice for event staff, tour guides, or travel representatives who require a blend of smart-casual presentation and all-day comfort. They are equally appropriate for corporate travel or as part of a high-quality summer promotional range.

Practical Advice
The inclusion of 2% elastane provides a slight stretch, so we recommend selecting your standard waist size for a comfortable yet tailored fit. These shorts pair effectively with a lightweight polo shirt for a casual look or a button-down shirt for a more formalised appearance. If you frequently transition between indoor and outdoor tasks, the rollable hems allow for quick adjustment to suit the temperature.
Caring for your product
To ensure your shorts maintain their shape and the palm print remains vibrant, we recommend a machine wash at 30°C. Washing at lower temperatures protects the elastane fibres and prevents premature fading of the fabric.
Always wash the garment inside out. This simple step protects the outer surface and any custom branding from the abrasive action of the washing machine drum, extending the lifespan of your logos. We also advise washing with similar colours to prevent any colour transfer.
It is important to avoid bleaching agents, as these will degrade the cotton fibres and destroy the subtle palm print design. For drying, we advise line drying rather than using a tumble dryer; excessive heat from a dryer can cause the elastane to become brittle and the garment to lose its shape.
If ironing is required, use a medium heat setting to remove creases without damaging the soft finish of the cotton. The garment should not be dry cleaned, as the chemical processes involved can be overly aggressive for this specific fabric blend.
