Ready to change your mind about short shorts?

Yes, these Wild Velvet Shorts from Amundsen are on the short side. And yes, we all have memories of our dads on holiday in the 80s and 90s, embarrassing us so acutely with their skimpy shorts that we spent the next decade in below-the-knee cargo shorts. Thing is, though, it's time to revisit your prejudices, because Amundsen shorts look absolutely fantastic. At 6 inches, these ones are a similar length to their popular Field Shorts, but in a more relaxed drawstring-waist style for travel and everyday use. Also, they're not actually velvet (remarkable as that would be), but rather a super-soft four-way-stretch corduroy that's been enzyme-washed for a lovely beach-bum fade. Speaking of bums, they've also double-layered the fabric in high-wear areas, so you can use them for boating without worrying about mooning everyone if you catch your shorts on a cleat.

- Sustainability through Longevity - While the biggest polluters in the outdoor industry compete to make the most noise about recycling and other green initiatives, Amundsen focus on what matters most: fewer products. Through the use of quality materials, technology and craftsmanship, Amundsen continuously make sure your timeless and versatile garments last for generations.
Amundsen Sports is named after one of the greatest explorers ever to walk the Earth. No pressure there then. In fact, the company’s co-founder, Jørgen Amundsen, is a relative of the legendary man himself, and the brand’s designs are based on classic styles from the golden age of exploration. Throw in a generous dash of 1960s Nordic ski resort chic and you’ve got a unique range of good-looking kit that’ll get you noticed in all the right ways.

However, there’s nothing old-fashioned about the way Amundsen’s gear performs. Ruggedly built from merino wool and waterproof triple-layer cotton, these are serious expedition-grade garments built for a Scandi outdoor culture – a concept that the Norwegians call ‘friluftsliv’, or ‘open-air life’. It’s the idea that time spent enjoying the freedom of the outdoors should be a core part of your life, since it enhances just about everything else. Now that’s something we can all get on board with.
