Badger Men's Purple Ultimate SoftLock 8" Shorts

The Badger Men's Purple SoftLock 8" Shorts bring performance-oriented construction to one of the most distinctive and recognizable team colors in athletic programs across the country. Built from 100% polyester interlock, these shorts use Badger's super soft SoftLock fabric to offer a smooth, wearing experience that holds up through intense training and competitive use without losing its feel.

Moisture management technology actively pulls perspiration away from the skin and promotes rapid drying, keeping athletes during demanding workouts, practices, and competition. UPF 50+ sun protection is woven into the fabric's performance profile, providing a meaningful defense against ultraviolet rays for athletes who train and compete outdoors.

Antimicrobial properties help control odor-causing bacteria buildup, which extends the freshness of these shorts between wash cycles and reduces the frequency of laundering required during heavy training periods. The 2" contrast elastic inner waistband paired with a flat drawcord creates a secure and adjustable fit that remains throughout dynamic activity.

The flat drawcord design keeps the waistband low-profile, which is particularly useful for athletes who layer compression shorts underneath or tuck in a jersey on top. Double-needle hem construction at the lower edge adds durability and a clean finished look that maintains its appearance through repeated machine washing. Two deep side pockets provide practical storage for small items during warm-ups or between activity sets.

A Badger heat-seal logo on the left hip delivers clean, professional branding that complements the bold purple colorway. These shorts are certified under Socially Conscious Manufacturing through the Fair Labor Association, a meaningful distinction for buyers focused on responsible sourcing. The purple base is well-suited to gold, white, and black decoration applications through both Embroidery and ColorPrint methods.
