Reviews

Awesome shorts

"I've already owned the T1 for a while, and these shorts are basically a short version of the T1. Super convenient phone pocket, nice sized cargo pocket. Great to wear all summer and very maneuverable, just like the pants. All I wear is Truewerk now. They are so nice I can never look back to Dickies and jeans"

— Ben K. (5/5)

Great shorts!

"These are almost my favorite shorts. Second only to the Cloud Werk short. If these had a little stretch in the waistband area, they’d be my favorite shorts. Light weight, comfortable, with just the right amount of pockets. I was a Duluth fan for years, but the T1 and Cloud Werk shorts have cured me of that."

— Mark C. (5/5)

GREAT work short!

"I'm an electrical contractor. I bought 6 of these shorts in assorted colors. I immediately got rid of the old cargo shorts I wore for years. I can't speak highly enough of these shorts. The quality, comfort and durability are beyond any work short I've ever owned. I've been in the business for over 30 years. They look great too. My wife mentioned to me how great they look, which she rarely does😄 There are pockets in every place you need them. These shorts are also very versatile as you can wear them as nice casual wear. Thank you Truewerk, great job!"

— Danny S. (5/5)

I like these more than the pants, pockets still meh.

"Material is good. Horizontally-cut front waist pockets are appreciated, as is the reinforced outer edge. The back pockets are too wide, notebooks and phone sit funny. One dedicated pen pocket isn't really sufficient. Would like at least two long, tall, open pockets to slide in zip ties, hammers, screwdrivers, and similar. Looking forward to seeing how they hold up over the coming year on the boat."

— Benjamin H. (4/5)

Super Shorts

"These are fantastic. 36 x 9" inseam. Perfect for hot weather. The best part about these are they are breathable, light, have pockets in the right places and above all, are flexible - I can squat fully without having to worry about the seams riding up on me and splitting. Great work or go out shorts for everything."

— Joshua W. (5/5)

My husband’s ONLY choice for work shorts

"My husband loves these shorts. He wears them every single day for work. They wash and dry easily. They hold up no matter what kind of work he is doing. The Pockets do not rip even when he hooks and removes a tape measure to them repeatedly throughout the day. They shipped in a timely fashion. Our only disappointment was that there was an advertised sale for 40% off, which we thought applied to these shorts but it did not."

— Tamara M. (5/5)

Great Stuff

"I have the pants but needed something cooler for the summers my obvious choice was the work shorts. I do love them BUT the only thing that bothers me is the photo pocket on the right leg is able to swing about more freely than on the pant and after a few hours of movement with it there I developed a tender spot on the tendon above my knee. I’m having to put a knee brace on in order to give my knee some padding to eliminate the pain at days end. Everything else is great say for that. It could use back padding."

— ARMANDO O. (4/5)

Same Great quality, and service

"Keep making the t1 work shorts the way you are, cause I don't buy any clothing except yours I love the quality and how they fit."

— Douglas K. (5/5)

Good shorts

"These are good shorts and comfortable but they only offer sizes in 2” increments. Why not add a 31” and a 33” etc. in the most popular sizes. I can’t get a pair that really fit properly."

— Erik J. (3/5)

T1 shorts

Q&A

Back pockets…… flaps? Open? I’d like open. I hate flaps.
Hi Jeff, Thanks for reaching out. The T1 Werkshorts have two open back pockets. Thank you, TRUEWERK
What length are the shorts in the pictures? 9 or 11?
Hi there, Most of the pictures displayed are a 9" inseam. An 11" inseam will be right over the kneecap for the average person, whereas 9" tends to be above the kneecap. Thank you, TRUEWERK
What length is the inseam?
Hi Charlene, Men's T1 Werkshorts come in either 9" or 11" inseam, whereas Women's come in 9" inseam. Thank you, TRUEWERK
I’m in pressure washing and we use sodium hypochlorite (12.5% bleach). I use bleach resistant shirts, which are 100% nylon. I see the shorts are 85% nylon and do you know if they will bleach out?
Hi Colin, Thanks for reaching out. Currently, none of our products are bleach resistant. Thank you, TRUEWERK
Does the waistband of T1 short stretch or is it fixed?
Hi, Mark! Thanks for reaching out. The T1 WerkShort will have a fixed waistband. It has a slight stretch, but not enough to make a significant impact on sizing.
