Which AS Colour pants or shorts should you choose?
The range splits into three jobs: smart casual, casual weight and everyday comfort. Start with where the garment will be worn, because the fabric decides how the logo looks and how the wearer feels in it.
| Style | Fabric (from the product page) | Best for |
| AS Colour Standard Pants | Chino with YKK zip fly, button closure and belt loops, sizes 28 to 40 | Front-of-house and office teams who want a tidy look |
| AS Colour Mens Canvas Shorts | 365 gsm 100% cotton duck canvas, sizes 28 to 40 | Hospitality, trades-adjacent and outdoor crews |
| AS Colour Beach Shorts | 130 gsm 100% cotton, elastic waist with internal drawcord, sizes 30 to 38 | Summer events, resorts and giveaways |
| AS Colour Track Shorts | 320 gsm French terry, 82% cotton 18% polyester, sizes S to 2XL | Club and team casual wear |
| AS Colour Mens Stadium Shorts | 320 gsm French terry, 75% cotton 25% polyester, sizes S to 2XL, 12 colours | Merchandise and streetwear-style drops |
| AS Colour Mens Relax Track Pants | 320 gsm fleece, 80% cotton 20% recycled polyester, relaxed fit, sizes S to 3XL | Winter staff wear and team tracksuits |
The grid also carries cord, linen, cargo walk and training shorts, plus further track, faded and straight-leg pants, so most uniform and merchandise briefs have a match. If you can only pick one for a mixed team, we'd go with the track shorts or relax track pants: the heavier fleece takes a logo cleanly, and the sizing runs wide enough that one order covers most of a team.
How do you decorate pants and shorts?
Pants and shorts give you a smaller canvas than a tee, so most logos sit on the upper thigh, hip or hem area, and the proof shows the exact spot before anything is made. The product pages offer one, two or three decoration positions.
- Embroidery is our usual pick for chinos, canvas shorts and any garment that doubles as a uniform. It lasts as long as the garment, though fine detail and tiny text don't stitch well, and the logo needs digitising first.
- Screen printing suits fleece track pants and shorts when the logo has one or two solid colours, and it keeps the unit cost down on bigger runs.
- DTF transfers handle full-colour logos and small runs, so a club crest with a gradient doesn't need a colour setup for each shade.
For most track and stadium shorts, we'd recommend screen print for a simple logo and DTF for anything with more colours. Heavier marle fleeces hide fine embroidery, so keep stitched logos bold. The artwork team confirms the final method on your proof.
Ordering AS Colour pants and shorts
There's no minimum order, so a small club can order twelve pairs of track shorts as easily as a franchise can order hundreds. You can mix sizes and colours in one order and the whole quantity counts toward volume pricing. Each order has a one-off setup for the logo, and embroidery needs the artwork digitised. You'll see a free digital proof showing the colours, logo size and position, and nothing goes into production until you approve it. Many products show quantity pricing on the product page, and the quote confirms the branded price.
Who buys branded pants and shorts?
- Hospitality and venue groups that put staff in canvas shorts or chinos, so the brand is on show across every shift.
- Sports clubs and school staff, who wear track shorts and track pants to training, sideline duty and carnivals, often for several seasons.
- Event organisers and brands that want a piece people will actually wear, such as beach shorts for a summer launch.
Multi-site organisations that reorder uniforms can ask us about an online store or uniform program, which keeps sizes and stock in one place.
What goes with pants and shorts?
A set looks better than a single piece, so pair them with AS Colour men's t-shirts, sweatshirts and knits or caps and hats. For a matching team look, see the women's pants and shorts and the kids' pants and shorts. Staff packs can be put together through our kitting service.
