AS Colour Active Pro Shorts 18″ | 5621

Description

The AS Colour Active Pro Shorts sit in the space between performance gear and everyday wear — lightweight 125GSM recycled cotton that moves without restriction and accepts decoration without the fabric-weight compromises you’d get from thinner athletic blanks. The 18-inch inseam hits at the knee for most wearers, offering coverage without the baggy look of longer basketball shorts. Preshrunk construction means your printed or embroidered logo stays where you put it, wash after wash.

Who Orders It

Fitness studios and CrossFit boxes building branded merch their members actually want to train in. College intramural programs and club sports needing affordable team shorts that don’t look like gym class leftovers. Activewear brands launching sustainable collections who want the recycled content story. Running clubs and outdoor adventure companies looking for a breathable short that carries their branding through summer programming. Yoga studios and wellness brands building cohesive staff uniforms.

Decoration

The 125GSM weight is light but stable enough for standard screen printing on the left leg or back waistband — typical placement for athletic shorts. Embroidery works cleanly but keep stitch counts under 8,000 to avoid puckering on the lighter fabric. DTG prints well on the cotton content, though the recycled blend may show slightly more texture in solid coverage areas. Heat transfer vinyl is your best bet for single-color athletic numbering or large leg graphics.
