Some workdays barely give you a chance to stand still. The Groundwork Shorts are designed to keep up.

Cut from lightweight 100% nylon with a relaxed fit through the seat and thigh, they leave you room to climb, crouch and stay moving. Five practical pockets keep your daily essentials close, while the built-in webbing belt lets you adjust the fit as you go.

The clean above-knee finish makes them easy to keep wearing once the tools are packed away.

Not often I buy my self some nice work shorts but was over the moon when these came. way better than just wearing boardies on site and actually feel super tough and durable. Will definitely be getting every colour way that’s for sure

These shorts are unreal! Haven’t been able to take them off all week so good so comfy. Pockets are awesome and durable they glide without getting caught and easy to open and close with gloves on. Will definitely be buying more in the future

Got recommended to buy these shorts and no regrets at all they make my job climbing up and around boats so much easier as they don’t catch and allow me to climb freely, highly recommend!

These shorts are a game changer, super light but feel durable, agile and non restrictive, good pockets. Waist design is awesome too. Very happy

Work shorts that feel good to wear but actually do what they’re meant to and hold everything you need in them without sagging. Best shorts I’ve had.
