Mid-thigh cut for bigger movement—and better leg days. The Hooch Daddy Mesh Shorts combine a bold athletic cut with double-layer breathable mesh, delivering cool, lightweight coverage without becoming see-through. Split-leg hems open up your range of motion through deep squats, sprints and high-output training, while the stretch waistband and front-exit drawstring keep the fit secure.

Three soft lined pockets provide usable storage without weighing the shorts down, and the pre-shrunk construction helps maintain the fit wash after wash. Made for lifting, running and training in the heat, these are the short shorts you wear when the legwork deserves to be seen.

  • 5" Athletic Inseam — modern above-the-knee fit built for movement
  • Double-Layer Performance Mesh — breathable comfort with full coverage
  • 2" Lower Leg Side Split — increased mobility for training and everyday wear
  • Three-Pocket Storage System — secure space for your everyday essentials
  • Front-Exit Drawstring — adjustable fit without internal cord irritation
  • Bartack Reinforced Stress Points — added durability where shorts fail first
  • Ultra-Breathable Construction — promotes airflow in hot weather and high-output training
  • Comfort Stretch Waistband — stays secure without rolling or digging

• Machine wash cold with similar colors

• Tumble dry low or hang dry

• Do not bleach

• Do not iron liner graphics

• Avoid fabric softeners when possible

The details that matter when choosing your next pair.

Because life's too short for long shorts.
They are made with a 5" that adds .50" each larger size up.
Yes. They’ve got deep front side pockets for your phone, wallet, and keys. They also have one rear wallet pocket.
No there is no inner liner.
They are double walled for comfort and to be squat ready.
They’ve got a modern, athletic cut—tapered around the thighs but not restrictive. True to size for most standard guys but size up if you like a looser vibe or have tree trunks for legs.

    Best training and just all around clothing company

    I ordered a pair of shorts a few months ago and liked them so much I have since ordered roughy $600.00 worth of additional gear. Slowly changing out my entire line to combat iron. For the gym to traveling,

    I have not found anything I would rather have on. Actually, as I writ this I am currently wearing one of the shorts and t-shirts lol.
