Find Your Length
The Field Shorts come in two lengths: 5" and 7".
Not sure what suits your stride, your build, or your appetite for showing a bit of leg? We’ll guide you.
A good rule of thumb: your shorts should sit a few inches above the kneecap. Any longer, and you’re drifting into knickerbocker territory.
5” — The shorter cut. Sits mid-thigh and moves freely. Best for those under 5'9", or anyone comfortable showing a little more quad.
7” — The classic all-rounder. Lands just above the knee with a bit more coverage, without feeling oversized. A natural choice for taller builds, or those who prefer a more classic fit.

WAXED COTTON: SCOTTISH HERITAGE
DEVELOPED BY SAILORS
The concept of waxed cotton was originally developed in the early 15th century by Scottish herring fishermen - both our suppliers of waxed cotton; Halley Stevenson’s of Scotland (est. 1864) and British Millerain of England (est. 1880), have pioneered the modern development of the traditional material.
The beauty of waxed cotton is in both its durability and longevity, as well as its surprising breathability – with the wax proofing adjusting to ambient temperature, maximizing comfort for the wearer. Its coating can be maintained by the end user by re-applying wax to the surface, keeping the material soft, supple, and weather-resistant.
