Pioneer Camp Men's UPF Shorts 9"

On a bright weekday the shorts travel from the house to a café terrace with no fuss. The quick-dry knit stretches as you move, the elastic waistband sits without pinching, and three pockets take a phone, keys and a small map. Choose a colourway to match a shirt. The finish leaves the cloth ready to sit beside a chair, not crumpled in a bag.

By evening the shorts have kept their shape through walking and a slow bike home. The knit still moves with you though it has worked for the day. They do not aim to replace a pair meant for heavy work, but they do the everyday reliably and quietly.

One of 81 on the trousers and shorts rail in the Pioneer Camp collection. It also answers to shorts. A size letter describes the garment rather than a body, the UPF figure describes dry, unstretched cloth, and the way we keep the figures current is set out on how we update the catalogue.
