Shorts 08MD — cargo shorts with side pockets

Cargo shorts pattern with an elasticized waist and flap side pockets, designed for women's urban and sports lines.

Mid-rise shorts with a fully elasticized waist, no visible drawcord, and two flap cargo pockets, one on each side of the thigh. The length reaches above the knee, with a simple hem and the straight drape of a thick knit.

They assemble well in fleece or a good-weight rustic cotton, which holds the volume of the cargo pockets without distorting. They work for urban or loungewear lines and pair with matching sweatshirts or oversized t-shirts. Since they have large applied pockets, reinforce the topstitching on the flaps so they do not open with wear.

It comes in 8 sizes (XS to 4XL) with the industrial grading already done: pick the sizes you need on the product page, or buy the full size range in one go. Delivered as an A4 PDF to print at home and a true-scale plotter PDF (90, 120 or 150 cm wide); DXF/AAMA, Optitex (PDS), marker (MRK) or Audaces (ADS) files for cutting directly in CAD are available on request.
