Badger Men's Graphite Ultimate SoftLock 8" Shorts

The Badger Men's SoftLock 8" Shorts in Graphite offer a versatile neutral option for athletes who want performance fabric in a tone that pairs well with a wide range of team colors. Built from 100% polyester interlock fabric, the SoftLock construction delivers a super soft feel that is against the skin while still handling the demands of active training.

The fabric holds its shape through repeated use and washing, which is an important quality for any team short expected to last a full season. Moisture management properties move sweat away from the body to the surface of the fabric, where it can evaporate faster and keep you cooler during high-output training sessions.

UPF 50+ protection makes these shorts a solid choice for outdoor practice or competition, guarding the skin from ultraviolet exposure over extended time outside. Antimicrobial treatment inhibits the growth of odor-causing bacteria, so the shorts stay fresher between washes even when worn through multiple practices.

The 2" contrast elastic inner waistband with a flat drawcord provides a secure and adjustable fit that adapts to different body types without discomfort. Double-needle hem construction at the leg openings reinforces the shorts against the abrasion and stress of regular athletic use.

Two deep side pockets give you practical carrying capacity for essentials without limiting movement. The Badger heat-seal logo on the left hip adds a clean branded detail. These shorts are also produced under the Socially Conscious Manufacturing credential, in a facility accredited by or partnered with the Fair Labor Association.
