Men's Plus Size Drawstring Printed Shorts

How to measure

Measure the garment (recommended for listings)

Lay the shorts flat on a smooth surface with the waistband closed and fabric smoothed. Use a soft tape measure and record in inches or centimeters.

• Waist (flat): Measure across the top of the waistband from one side to the other. Multiply that number by 2 to get the circumference. For elastic drawstrings, record both relaxed and fully stretched measurements.
• Hip: Measure across the widest part of the shorts (typically 2–3" / 5–8 cm below the crotch seam) and multiply by 2.
• Front rise: Measure from the top center of the front waistband down to the crotch seam.
• Back rise: Measure from the top center of the back waistband down to the crotch seam.
• Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam along the inside leg to the hem.
• Outseam (length): Measure from the top of the waistband to the bottom of the hem along the side seam.
• Thigh: Measure across the leg 1" (2.5 cm) below the crotch seam and multiply by 2.
• Leg opening: Measure across the hem and multiply by 2.

Tip: Take each measurement with the fabric relaxed (unless showing stretched dimensions). For customer guidance, list flat measurements plus recommended body measurements and suggested ease (usually 1–3" / 2.5–7.5 cm of extra room for comfort).

Measure your body (to pick the right size)

• 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.
• Inseam preference: Measure a pair of shorts you like from crotch seam to hem to match length.

Materials & fabric details

Typical construction and features for printed drawstring plus-size shorts:

Main fabric

Lightweight printed woven or knit. Common options are 100% polyester (quick-dry, colorfast—often printed by sublimation) or cotton/poly blends (softer hand). Polyester is durable, dries quickly and holds prints well; cotton blends feel softer and more breathable.

Lining

Some styles include a soft mesh lining (usually 100% polyester) for comfort and breathability; others are unlined for a lighter feel.

Waistband & drawstring

Elastic encased waistband with an adjustable drawcord. Drawstrings are typically cotton-blend or braided synthetic cords.

Trim & hardware

Eyelets, buttons or zipper details (if present) are usually metal or plastic—follow the garment label for any special care.

Note: Check the product label or spec sheet for exact fiber percentages and any special finishes (water-repellent, UPF, anti-odor). The guidance above describes the most common materials and their expected behavior.

Model information

Reference model: Height 6'0" (183 cm), Waist 40" (102 cm), Hip 46" (117 cm). The model is wearing size 3XL and the shorts present a relaxed, mid-thigh fit.

Fit advice: If you prefer a roomier, more relaxed look, consider sizing up. For a closer fit, choose your usual size and compare with the garment measurements provided.

Care guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold with like colors; turn the shorts inside out to protect printed surfaces.
• Use a gentle cycle and mild detergent. Do not use bleach or chlorine-based cleaners.
• Avoid fabric softeners on moisture-wicking or quick-dry fabrics—they can reduce performance.
• Tumble dry low or, preferably, hang to dry to reduce fading and shrinkage.
• If ironing is needed, iron on low heat on the reverse side only; do not iron directly on printed areas.
• Spot-treat stains promptly with a gentle stain remover; always test on an inconspicuous area first.
• Store folded in a cool, dry place out of prolonged direct sunlight to preserve color and print.
• If the garment has special finishes (water-repellent, anti-odor), follow label instructions to maintain those properties.

Style tips

• Let the shorts be the focal point: pair bold prints with a solid tee or polo in a complementary tone pulled from the pattern.
• Beach/pool look: quick-dry tank or tee + slides or flip-flops; add an open linen shirt for a put-together vibe.
• Casual day out: white or neutral sneakers and a crisp tee balance patterned shorts nicely.
• Active use: pair with moisture-wicking performance tops and low-profile trainers.
• For mixed patterns, keep one print dominant and the other subtle—alternatively wear a neutral solid to avoid clashing.
• Shorter inseams read more modern; longer lengths offer a classic, conservative look—choose by personal preference and activity.
• Accessories: sunglasses, a simple watch, or a woven belt can elevate the outfit without overpowering the print.
