Cargo Gym Shorts - Black

Men's Black Cargo Gym Shorts – 100% Cotton, for Training and Everyday

The Cargo Gym Shorts in black are men's training shorts in 100% cotton, with two zip side pockets, two Velcro leg pockets and an elastic waistband with a drawcord. They work in the gym, in your free time and as a streetwear piece – one pair for indoors and out.

For men who want more than a plain pair of sports shorts: a clean black with the Gym Generation logo print, a relaxed cut and the cargo pockets that make the difference day to day.

Cargo Pockets for Phone, Keys and Essentials

The pockets are the heart of these shorts. Two zip side pockets keep a phone and keys secure, including while you move. Two Velcro leg pockets add storage and give the shorts their cargo character. In the gym and on the way there, what you need stays with you.

100% Cotton, Light Fabric

These shorts are 100% cotton in a deliberately light, thin weave – soft against the skin, airy on warm days and through training. They are not stiff, but they are not elastic either: the fabric has no stretch, and the freedom to move comes from the cut and the adjustable waistband. An honest cotton cut rather than a compression fabric – for anyone who would rather wear natural cotton than a fully synthetic pair of sports shorts.

Elastic Waistband with a Drawcord

The elastic waistband with its drawcord lets you set the fit yourself – loose and comfortable, but held where it should be. The shorts stay in place during training and sit easy the rest of the time.

Fit and Care

The Cargo Gym Shorts are cut comfortably and come up true to size – order your usual size, and use the drawcord for the width. Pure cotton is best treated cool: wash cold to lukewarm and air dry rather than putting it through a hot tumble dryer. That keeps the shape, since pure cotton can shrink slightly if it is washed too hot.

Cargo Gym Shorts – Frequently Asked Questions

Do the shorts stretch?
No, and that is deliberate. Pure cotton has no elastane in it, so the give comes from the relaxed cut and the drawcord waistband rather than the fabric. If you want stretch, a polyester-elastane short is the better fit.

Do the shorts have pockets that close?
Yes. Two zip side pockets for a phone and keys, plus two Velcro leg pockets for extra storage.

How do these differ from the Maverick cargo shorts?
The fabric and the closures. These are 100% cotton in a light, thin weave with zip side pockets and Velcro leg pockets. The Maverick is a heavier cotton-polyester sweatshirt fabric with press-stud leg pockets and open side pockets – more substance, less airflow.

Are they warm on hot days?
Less than most training shorts. The thin cotton weave lets air through, which is the trade-off for having no stretch – comfortable in summer, less of a performance fabric.

Do they work for training and for everyday?
Both. The comfortable cut and the secure pockets make them practical in the gym, and the clean black cargo design carries into the rest of the day. Wear them with a tee, a tank top or a hoodie.
