Features

Supershorts - our original “free standing” shorts. Supershorts are constructed with our tough, comfortable C-Canvas. Not the cheapest material in the world but we’re yet to find a better material – its combination of durability and breathable comfort is what makes these shorts possible.

Antelope, Black and Olive are all made from our new Premium C-Canvas, a durabe 12oz canvas with a softer finish.

These will end up being possibly the most comfortable shorts you own - and they’ll stay that way for a long, long time; truly shorts that wear in, not out. If you need proof of the comfort and durability, James chose them for a 18,000km bicycle ride around the globe. We’ve got them framed up on the wall of fame here at Cactus HQ.

Care

• Essentially, Canvas Supertrousers and Supershorts require a bit of a wear-in period to soften the fabric.
• The first three or so washes should be done by hand, then you should be right to machine wash.
• Use cold water with a mild powder detergent, rinse thoroughly, very gentle or no spin and line-dry.
• Do not iron, dry clean, spin-dry or use bleach.
  
• When new, the stiffness of the fabric means it creases in points rather than soft folds - washing them in an aggressive or hot machine can cause damage on the crease points.
• Our canvas also has a waterproofing agent which, if washed in an aggressive or hot machine, can shift and discolour. This will appear as white lines which cannot be removed.
  
• Washing inside out will minimise lighter coloured creases on the outside of the fabric, but won’t remove stains quite as well.
  
• Drip dry without creases (it won't take long as the polyester in the fabric doesn't hold much water)
• Close zips while washing (they'll last longer)
• Note that all the colours will lighten with use and washing as the natural cotton content of the fabric won't take a dye fixative in the same way as a 100% synthetic fabric.
• If you get attacked by a pig and the fabric gets holed while saving your reproductive potential send them back and we'll patch ‘em for a small fee
