Engineered for Performance

The Portwest Combat Shorts (S790) are the definitive solution for operational teams working in warmer climates or heated indoor environments. Manufactured from a high-performance polycotton blend, these shorts are engineered to withstand the rigours of daily industrial use while offering superior breathability compared to full-length trousers. The 210gsm fabric strikes the ideal balance between being lightweight enough for summer heat and tough enough to resist snagging and tearing in warehouse or construction settings. A critical technical feature is the twin-stitched seam construction, which significantly reinforces stress points, preventing premature failure of the garment during strenuous activities. Furthermore, the fabric boasts a 50+ UPF rating, providing substantial protection against solar ultraviolet radiation for outdoor ground crews. For businesses looking to equip their staff with reliable summer gear, these shorts integrate perfectly with our range of high-visibility Hi-Vis Vests, ensuring safety standards are maintained even when the temperature rises.

Comfort & Workforce Utility

Operational efficiency relies heavily on wearer comfort, and the S790 Combat Shorts excel in this area. The design incorporates a half-elasticated waistband which provides a non-restrictive fit that accommodates the natural expansion and contraction of the waist during bending and lifting tasks. This ensures that staff remain comfortable throughout an 8-hour shift without the garment digging in or slipping down. Utility is central to the design, featuring six generous pockets that allow for the organised carriage of essential tools, PDAs, pens, and keys, reducing the need for constant trips back to a workstation. The regular fit offers ample room around the thighs for unrestricted movement, which is essential for delivery drivers, couriers, and tradespeople who are constantly on the move. By combining a professional appearance with athletic-level freedom of movement, these shorts help maintain morale and productivity during the hottest months of the year.

Ideal Workplace Applications

• Summer logistics and delivery drivers requiring cool, functional uniform.
• Indoor manufacturing teams in heated environments.
• Event staff and outdoor maintenance crews.
