Badger Men's Red Ultimate SoftLock 8" Shorts

The Badger Men's SoftLock 8" Shorts in Red offer a bold, high-energy color option for teams and athletes who want a distinctive look on the field or in the gym. Red is one of the most common team colors in organized sports, and the style short delivers it in a tone that photographs well and holds up through repeated washing without significant fading when properly cared for.

The short is built from 100% polyester interlock fabric using Badger's SoftLock construction, which creates a super soft feel without sacrificing the durability athletes need. The fabric includes moisture management properties that pull sweat away from the skin and accelerate evaporation, keeping athletes more through high-intensity training and competition.

UPF 50+ protection is built into the construction, providing a meaningful shield against ultraviolet exposure during outdoor use. Antimicrobial properties are also included, helping to control odor-causing bacteria and extend the wearability of the shorts between wash cycles.

The 2" contrast elastic inner waistband with flat drawcord allows for a secure and customizable fit across different waist sizes, and the flat drawcord avoids the discomfort that rope-style waistbands can cause during movement. Double-needle hem construction at the leg openings reinforces these high-wear areas and adds years of durability to the shorts.

Two deep side pockets provide enough room for essential items without disrupting the short's clean athletic profile. The Badger heat-seal logo on the left hip adds brand recognition. These shorts are produced under the Socially Conscious Manufacturing credential through a partnership with or accreditation by the Fair Labor Association.
