At Urban Industry we recommend / Ideal For

• Summer city wear and beach environments where a balance of retro styling and maximum breathability is required.
• Active training and gym sessions for individuals who prefer the lightweight, non-restrictive feel of a classic sprinter silhouette.
• Building a contemporary streetwear wardrobe focused on vibrant, "Preloved" colour palettes and sustainable recycled textiles.
• Pairing with clean white organic cotton tees, technical sports socks, or classic Adidas terrace trainers for a cohesive, heritage look.

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These shorts feature a regular fit, offering a balanced cut through the seat and thigh that sits comfortably without excess bulk.
• The 100% recycled plain weave provides a structured yet pliable drape that maintains its iconic shape even after repeated washing.
  
• We recommend ordering your usual size for the intended "true to size" fit, as the drawcord allows for precise tension adjustment.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cold cycle to preserve the integrity of the recycled polyamide fibres and the vibrant tricolour pigments.
• Wash the shorts with all fasteners and drawcords closed to prevent snagging or damage to the plain weave fabric during the cycle.
• Tumble dry on a low heat setting; however, hanging to dry naturally will help maintain the fabric's crisp texture and longevity.
• Use only non-chlorine bleach when absolutely necessary to avoid compromising the technical blue and tangerine dyes.
• Touch up with a cool iron if needed to remove storage creases, ensuring you avoid direct heat on any printed or embroidered branding.
