The Blåkläder 1598 Craftsman Shorts Stretch are for work that demands concentration and ease of movement. Stretch panels sit where you bend, kneel and climb most, so the shorts move with you through the day.
Plenty of storage keeps tools and small items close to hand. Reinforced tool pockets, a ruler pocket with knife holder and a well-organised leg pocket mean less time spent searching for what you need.
