Shorts for Kids

For most of the year, shorts are what children actually live in. They go to the park in them, sit on the ground in them, and come home with the evidence. TechnoSport kids' shorts are made to handle that and wash clean again, in sizes from 5-6Y to 13-14Y.

Light and quick-drying is the whole idea. A breathable knit keeps a child comfortable through an afternoon of running about, and dries fast enough to be back in use the next morning.

Shop by Style

Pick by length and by pockets.

  • Play shorts light and free at the leg for everyday.

For Every Activity

Shorts back most of what children do outdoors. They suit team sports and PE, work for running and cycling, and are the easiest thing to pack for travel.

How to Choose Kids' Shorts

  • Size by age. Kids' shorts run 28 (5-6Y) through 36 (13-14Y), with the waist number first and age in brackets.
  • Length. Above the knee gives the most freedom for play. Knee-length gives more cover for sitting on rough ground.
  • Waist. An elasticated drawcord waist is the practical choice, since it adjusts as they grow.
  • Colour. Darker colours are far more forgiving of grass and mud than light ones.
  • Care. Wash cold and skip the softener, which slows the quick-dry finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What length is best for younger children?

    Above the knee gives the most freedom for running and climbing. Knee-length is worth choosing if they spend a lot of time sitting or kneeling on rough ground.
  • Do the shorts have an adjustable waist?

    Most styles use an elasticated waist with a drawcord, which gives a secure fit and useful adjustment while your child grows.
  • Will grass and mud stains come out?

    These fabrics wash well and release marks more easily than heavy cotton. Darker colours are always the safer choice for daily outdoor play.
  • Are they suitable for school sports?

    Yes. The quick-dry fabrics handle PE and games practice, and dry fast enough to be ready again for the next session.
  • What ages do the shorts cover?

    Kids' shorts run from 28 (5-6Y) to 36 (13-14Y).
