FAQs
What is the primary material of these work shorts?
The shorts are made from a blend of 65% Polyester and 35% Cotton, featuring a 235GSM rip-stop weave for enhanced durability.
Are these shorts suitable for hot weather work?
While made for durability, the polyester blend offers some breathability. For extremely hot conditions, consider TuffStuff's lighter-weight options if available. The rip-stop nature, however, prioritizes toughness.
How many pockets do these shorts have?
The shorts feature holster pockets, roomy cargo pockets, and a hammer loop, providing ample storage for tools and essentials.
What is the inseam length?
These shorts have a 10-inch inseam.
Can I machine wash these shorts?
Yes, they are machine washable at a maximum of 40°C with similar colors. Avoid tumble drying.
What trades are these shorts best suited for?
They are ideal for builders, carpenters, painters, decorators, plumbers, electricians, engineers, and other trade professionals who require durable and functional workwear.
Does the hammer loop fit all hammer sizes?
The hammer loop is designed to accommodate standard trade hammers. Its effectiveness can vary slightly depending on the specific hammer's handle and head size.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel too tight or too loose
Refer to the size chart and ensure you have selected the correct waist size (UK 38 in this case). If the fit is still not ideal, consider trying a different size or style from the TuffStuff range.
Pockets seem stiff or difficult to access initially
The pockets, especially holster and cargo styles, may feel stiff when new due to the durable fabric. With regular use and washing according to care instructions, they will become more flexible and easier to use.
Seams appear to be fraying after initial use
While triple-stitched for durability, inspect the seams for any manufacturing defects. If fraying is excessive or occurs soon after purchase, contact the retailer for a potential exchange or warranty claim.
