Men's Shorts Sets – A Guide
Short answer: A men's shorts set is summer's answer to the jogging set: a matching top and shorts in soft, breathable fabric. In bamboo viscose you get a set that works both at home on the terrace and out in town on warm days.
What does a good shorts set consist of?
The core is a pair of soft shorts and a matching top – a T-shirt, a polo or a light sweatshirt. Build your own set with bamboo shorts for men and a bamboo T-shirt for men in the same shade.
Why bamboo is the right summer fabric
Shorts sets are worn on the hottest days of the year, and that is where the moisture transport and breathability of bamboo viscose make a noticeable difference: you stay dry and fresh. Read more about bamboo and temperature regulation.
From terrace to town
At home the set works with bare feet, out and about with trainers and perhaps a bamboo polo as a smarter top. For cool evenings, a bamboo sweatshirt for men makes a good addition – find it all under bamboo loungewear for men.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a shorts set and a jogging set?
The idea is the same – a matching top and bottom – but the shorts set is for the warm months, while the jogging set with long trousers is for the cool ones.
Can I wear the pieces separately?
Yes, that is the whole point: the shorts work with any top, and the T-shirt or polo can be worn with jeans and chinos.
How do I keep the set even in colour?
Always wash both pieces together at 30 degrees, so the colours wear at the same pace.
