The Blåkläder 1598 Craftsman Shorts Stretch are the shorts version of the 1599 craftsman trousers. They suit work that calls for concentration and plenty of movement. 4-way stretch panels on the front and back yoke, plus 2-way stretch at the crotch, let the shorts move with you as you kneel, bend and climb.
Storage is built around a working day on the tools. Reinforced tool pockets, a ruler pocket with knife holder and a well-equipped leg pocket keep everything close at hand. A reflective detail on the leg pocket adds some visibility in poor light.
