Olive Essentials Shorts

Olive Essentials shorts carry their branding low, with a white FOG box printed near the hem of one leg. The rest stays plain, so the warm khaki-green does most of the talking. Summer options at Essentials Hoodie include paler shades as well. A gathered elastic waist and a drawcord with a black tab hold them in place, and the side pockets sit flat against the hip. The short length keeps the shape casual, and the hem stays clean all the way around. Check the box print in the olive FOG box shorts image.

A White FOG Box Near the Hem

Printing the logo low changes where the eye goes. White on olive gives clear contrast, and because it is off to one side the front still looks relaxed.

A Top in the Same Colour

The olive Essentials Racing hoodie uses the same FOG box idea on its chest in a closely related olive, so the two can work together.

Fleece Weight and Waist Fit

These use a 400 GSM fleece, 80% cotton and 20% polyester, which feels heavier than a typical summer short. Go by your waist size; the drawcord handles small differences. S to 3XL are available.

Paler and Sportier

For a lighter colour with a curved hem, take a look at the light grey Essentials shorts.

When Olive Shorts Work Best

They suit warm days and cool summer evenings. A white or black tee is the simple answer, and the grey Essentials sweatshirt covers you when the air turns.

Caring for the Box Print

Turn them inside out and wash cold. Air dry, and keep the iron away from the white print.
