Men's Full Size Drawstring Shorts with Cargo Pockets — Product Info

How to measure

Use a soft measuring tape. Measure over underwear or lightweight clothing. For the most reliable fit, measure an existing pair of shorts that fits you the way you like (laid flat) and compare those numbers to the product’s garment measurements.

Body measurements (how to measure yourself)

• Waist: Measure around your natural waist or where you normally wear shorts. Keep the tape comfortably snug but not tight.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/buttocks with feet together.
• Thigh: Measure around the fullest part of the thigh, about 1"–2" (2.5–5 cm) below the crotch.
• Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam down to the hem (this determines the rise-to-hem length).
• Front rise: Measure from the top of the waistband at the front down to the crotch seam.
• Outseam / Full length: Measure from the top of the waistband down the outside to the bottom of the leg hem.

Garment measurements (measure a shorts you own — recommended)

1. Lay the shorts flat on a hard surface and smooth wrinkles (do not stretch).
2. Waist (flat): Measure straight across the top of the waistband, then multiply by 2 to get circumference.
3. Hips (flat): Measure across the widest point of the seat, then multiply by 2.
4. Thigh (flat): Measure across the leg 1"–2" below the crotch seam, then multiply by 2.
5. Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam to the hem along the inner seam.
6. Outseam: Measure from the top of the waistband to the hem along the outside seam.

Conversion: 1 in = 2.54 cm. When choosing a size, allow room for comfort: for everyday wear expect ~1.5"–4" (4–10 cm) ease at the waist depending on fit (snug to relaxed). If you are between sizes, size up for a more comfortable plus-size fit—drawstring waist adds adjustability.

Materials

Exact fabric content varies by color and manufacturer—always check the product label or product page for the definitive composition. Typical materials and components for this style include:

• 100% Cotton Twill: Breathable, durable, softens with wash. Classic casual feel.
• Cotton/Polyester blend (e.g., 60/40): Less shrinkage, quicker drying, more durable and wrinkle-resistant than pure cotton.
• Polyester / Nylon (performance fabrics): Lightweight, quick-dry, often treated for water resistance or added abrasion resistance—good for active/outdoor use.
• Stretch blends (cotton + elastane 95/5 or similar): Small amount of stretch for improved comfort and freedom of movement.
• Pocket linings: Cotton/poly blend or breathable mesh for lighter weight and faster drying.
• Hardware: Elastic or drawcord waistband (polyester/cotton cord), metal eyelets, YKK zippers or snap closures on cargo pockets, rivets or bartacks at stress points.

Material notes: cotton gives a soft, natural feel but can shrink if washed hot; synthetic fibers improve durability and fast-drying properties. If the product has a water-repellent finish or special coating, follow care instructions to preserve that finish.

Model information (reference)

Below are example model references to help visualize fit. Use these as a general guide; consult the specific product page for exact model details.

• Standard model: Height ~6'1" (185 cm), waist ~32" (81 cm), wearing size M — shows a regular/true-to-size fit.
• Plus-size model: Height ~6'0" (183 cm), waist ~40" (102 cm), wearing size 2XL — shows how the relaxed/full-size silhouette looks on a larger frame.

Fit notes: these drawstring cargo shorts are designed for a relaxed, comfortable fit through the hip and thigh. The adjustable drawstring waistband lets you fine-tune the fit; when in doubt, size up for more ease and pocket comfort.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Always check and follow the garment care label first—the label overrides general advice.
• Before washing: empty pockets, close zippers/snaps, tie the drawstring or tuck it in to prevent tangling.
• Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle to reduce wear and shrinkage.
• Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach unless fabric care explicitly allows it.
• Avoid fabric softener for performance fabrics (it can reduce moisture-wicking and water-repellent performance).
• Tumble dry low or, preferably, line dry to preserve fabric and hardware life. Remove promptly from dryer to minimize wrinkles.
• If ironing is needed, use low heat and iron inside out; avoid ironing directly over trims, prints, or elastic.
• For stubborn stains, pre-treat with a stain remover and test on an inconspicuous area first.
• For garments with a water-repellent finish, refresh treatment with a wash-in or spray-on reproofing product following the manufacturer’s directions.
• Store folded in a cool, dry place—avoid prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading.

Style tips

• Casual everyday: Pair with a plain or graphic tee and sneakers. Roll the hem once for a slightly shorter look.
• Smart casual: Tuck in a polo or short-sleeve button-down and add loafers or boat shoes for a cleaner silhouette.
• Outdoor / travel: Combine with a moisture-wicking tee, lightweight hiking sandals or trainers, and let cargo pockets hold essentials (phone, wallet, keys).
• Beach / pool: Wear with a lightweight tank and slides; quick-dry fabric options double as swim shorts in a pinch.
• Layering: Top with a lightweight overshirt, denim jacket, or hoodie for cooler evenings—choose complementary neutrals for easy mixing.
• Plus-size styling: Aim for balance—longer-length tees or open linen shirts create vertical lines; avoid overstuffing cargo pockets to maintain a clean silhouette.
• Color pairing: Neutral shorts (navy, khaki, olive, black) are versatile—pair with brighter tops for contrast, or go tonal for a streamlined look.
• Accessories: A casual belt (if shorts have belt loops), a watch, and sunglasses complete the outfit—keep pocket content light to preserve the shorts’ shape.
