Shorts: Origin and History

13th Century

The first recorded instance of shorts being worn was in the 13th century by English knights. These early shorts were more like underwear than anything else and were made of wool or linen.

In the late 19th century, shorts began to be worn as sportswear by athletes competing in various sports such as tennis, cricket, and golf.

1920

Additionally, spandex provides good support and does not restrict movement. This makes it an ideal fabric for athletes or for people who are engaged in activities that require a lot of movement.

5. 4 Factors to Consider When Designing Shorts

There are a few key factors you’ll want to consider when designing your own line of shorts. Here are some things to keep in mind:

#1 Fit

Shorts need to be comfortable and flattering, but they also need to allow for a full range of motion. This is particularly important for athletes or anyone who wants to use their shorts for activities like hiking or cycling.

#2 Fabric

The type of fabric you use will affect the breathability, moisture-wicking properties, and durability of the shorts. For example, polyester is a popular choice for athletic shorts because it is lightweight and quick-drying.

However, cotton is also a popular choice for casual shorts because it is soft and comfortable. Ultimately, the best fabric for your shorts will depend on the intended use.

#3 Style

Will the shorts be for everyday wear or a specific activity, such as running or biking? The chosen style will dictate the cut of the shorts as well as the type of fabric used. For example, printed fabrics may be more suitable for everyday wear, while more technical fabrics may be better suited for activewear.

In addition, it is also important to consider the overall aesthetic of the shorts. Will they be designed to stand out or blend in? Ultimately, the style of the shorts should be in line with the brand’s identity and target market.

#4 Price

Price is always going to be a major factor. No one wants to overspend on something that they’re only going to wear for a few months out of the year. However, it’s important to remember that quality matters as well.

Shorts that are made from cheap materials are not going to last as long or look as good as shorts that are made from higher-quality fabrics. As such, it’s important to strike a balance between price and quality when choosing shorts.

Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to start your own shorts brand:

Step#1 Find a Custom Shorts Manufacturer

As a startup, you will be working closely with your clothing manufacturer for startups, so it’s important to find the clothing manufacturer that you can trust.

Step#4 Select the Right Trims and Finishings
