Sweat Shorts – The Summer Trousers for Home

Short answer: Sweat shorts are summer's answer to lounge trousers: soft, airy and comfortable from morning to evening. A pair of grey sweat shorts in bamboo viscose is the classic style that goes with almost everything in your wardrobe.

Why grey sweat shorts have become a classic

Grey is the most flexible sweat colour: it matches white, black and coloured tops alike and hides signs of wear better than very light shades. See the selection of bamboo shorts for men and bamboo shorts for women.

Bamboo makes the difference on warm days

Shorts are worn exactly when it is warm – and that is where the fabric is decisive. Bamboo viscose carries sweat away and feels cool against the skin. Read more about bamboo and temperature regulation.

How to wear them – at home and out

At home, sweat shorts work with a loose bamboo T-shirt for men. Out and about, they suit a polo or a tank top – see bamboo tank tops for men. For cool summer evenings, a light bamboo sweatshirt makes a good addition.

Frequently asked questions

Can sweat shorts be worn outside the house?

Yes, good-quality sweat shorts in a single colour work nicely for walks, shopping and relaxed summer days together with a smart T-shirt or polo.

Why choose sweat shorts in bamboo rather than cotton?

Bamboo viscose breathes better, carries sweat away and keeps odour down, so the shorts feel fresh for longer on warm days.

How do I wash my sweat shorts?

Wash at 30 degrees and let them air dry. That is the best way to keep the softness and the fit.
