Size Guide

Read this one properly. We ship direct from our manufacturer, so there's no quick swap from a warehouse down the road. Getting the size right the first time is worth two minutes of your attention.

Australian sizing. The number is the waist you are, not the waist you'd like to be.

Size Waist (inches) Waist (cm) Usually fits
S 30" 74–78 cm Slim build
M 32" 79–83 cm Most blokes
L 34" 84–88 cm Most blokes
XL 36" 89–94 cm Broader build
2XL 38" 95–100 cm Broader build

How to measure, properly

Take a soft tape around your waist where the waistband of the shorts will actually sit — at the hip bone, not up at the belly button where trousers sit. Stand normally. Don't breathe in. Don't cheat, you're only cheating yourself.

If you're between two sizes

Size up. The waist is elastic with a drawcord, so a size up cinches down fine. A size down does not stretch up, and on a printed short a strained waistband distorts the print exactly where you don't want it distorted.

Buying it as a gift and you have no idea?

His jeans size is the number you want — have a look at a pair in his cupboard. If you're still stuck, L is the size we send most of.

If it turns up wrong anyway

Tell us within 30 days, unworn with the liner intact, and we'll send the right size at half price and you keep the first pair. No return postage, no three-week wait. Full detail on Shipping & Returns.

The cut

Mid-length, sitting around mid-thigh. Elastic waist, functioning drawcord, white mesh liner, no back pocket — a back pocket would cut straight through the print, which rather defeats the purpose.
