Men's Plus Size Drawstring Shorts with Cargo Pockets

Comfortable, adjustable shorts with multiple cargo pockets—designed for everyday wear, travel and outdoor activities.

How to Measure

Use a flexible tape measure. Measure on bare skin or over thin clothing while standing relaxed. You can measure your body or measure a pair of shorts that fits you well.

Body measurements

• Waist: Measure around where you normally wear shorts (natural waist or lower on the hips). Keep the tape snug but not tight. For drawstring styles, take both a relaxed and a snug measurement to understand the adjustment range.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips/buttocks.
• Thigh: Measure around the fullest part of the thigh just below the crotch.
• Inseam: Measure from the crotch seam down the inside leg to where you want the hem to sit.
• Outseam (length): Measure from the top of the waistband to the bottom hem along the outside of the leg.

Measure a favorite pair (flat)

• Waist (flat): Lay shorts flat, measure the waistband edge-to-edge, then multiply by 2 to get the circumference.
• Hip (flat): Lay flat and measure across the fullest part, then multiply by 2.
• Inseam: Measure from crotch seam to hem while laid flat.
• If your measurement is between sizes, choose the larger size for more comfort; the drawstring adds some adjustability.

Materials

Fabric and trim vary by style. Common constructions include:

• Cotton Twill (e.g., 100% cotton): Soft, breathable and durable. Natural fiber feel with slight shrink potential on first washes.
• Cotton/Polyester Blend (e.g., 60/40): Better shape retention, quicker drying and lower wrinkle tendency—easy care.
• Cotton + Spandex (e.g., 98/2): Adds gentle stretch for extra comfort and freedom of movement.
• Canvas / Ripstop: Heavier-duty fabrics for rugged use and higher abrasion resistance.
• Trim & Hardware: Pocket bags usually lightweight cotton or polyester; drawstrings are cotton or polyester cord; zippers, snaps or rivets may be metal or plastic.

Tip: Dark or garment-dyed colors may have slight color transfer on first wash—wash separately the first time and check the garment label for exact fiber content.

Model Information & Fit

• Example: Model in photos is 6'1" (185 cm) with a 42" waist and is wearing size 2XL.
• Fit description: Relaxed through the seat and thigh with an adjustable drawstring waist; mid-rise with an approximate inseam of 7–9" depending on size.
• Fit tips: If you prefer a slimmer silhouette or plan to layer, consider sizing down; size up for extra room or if you frequently carry items in the cargo pockets.

Care Guide (to keep it lovely longer)

• Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle; turn shorts inside out to protect color and trims.
• Use a mild detergent; avoid bleach. Do not use fabric softener on performance or water-repellent finishes.
• Tumble dry low or hang to dry to reduce shrinkage and preserve shape; remove promptly to minimize wrinkles.
• If ironing is needed, use a low heat setting and avoid direct heat on drawstrings, trims or printed areas.
• Spot-treat stains promptly before washing and empty pockets before laundering to avoid damage.
• Close zippers/snaps and secure the drawstring before washing to prevent snagging.

Style Tips

• Everyday casual: Pair with a plain crewneck tee and low-top sneakers for a clean, comfortable look.
• Smart-casual: Tuck in a linen or short-sleeve button-up and add boat shoes or loafers for a polished summer outfit.
• Travel & outdoors: Wear with a moisture-wicking tee, lightweight zip layer and supportive walking shoes; cargo pockets are convenient for small essentials.
• Beach-ready: Combine with a tank top or camp shirt and sandals; lighter colors help keep you cool.
• Balance proportions: If the shorts are roomy, wear a more fitted top to maintain a balanced silhouette.
• Color pairing: Neutral shorts (navy, khaki, olive, gray) match most tops; for bolder shorts, pair with muted neutrals to let the color stand out.
• Accessories: A woven belt, minimal watch and sunglasses finish the look—keep bulky items centered or in back pockets to preserve a neat profile.

Note: Exact fabric composition, fit and care instructions can vary by style—always refer to the product tag for specific details.
