At Urban Industry we recommend / Ideal For

• Daily casual wear for individuals who appreciate the structure and "built-to-last" feel of heavy cotton canvas.
• Building a high quality summer rotation focused on sustainable materials and heritage-inspired utility.
• Professional use in kitchens or workshops where a breathable yet tough-wearing short is required.
• Those seeking a reliable short that maintains its shape and rugged aesthetic after repeated washing.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These shorts feature a relaxed fit, offering a generous profile through the leg that promotes comfort during active use.
• The 11oz organic canvas provides a structured drape that feels substantial without being overly restrictive.
• The elasticated drawstring waist allows for significant flexibility, accommodating a wide range of body types comfortably.
• We recommend taking your usual size to benefit from the intended relaxed and functional fit.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cool, gentle cycle with similar light colours to maintain the Stone tone and canvas integrity.
• Turn the shorts inside out before washing to protect the organic cotton fibres and the woven rear label.
• Hang the shorts to dry naturally to preserve the 360gsm structure and prevent potential shrinkage.
• Avoid the use of a tumble dryer, as high heat can prematurely age the heavy canvas and affect the fit.
• Use a warm iron if necessary, though the heavyweight canvas naturally resists excessive creasing.
