Durability meets design in our latest seasonal essential: the FEATURE Ryan Double Knee Shorts. Crafted with intention and built for everyday wear, these shorts are a natural progression in our evolving exploration of modern workwear. Grounded in utility and elevated by clean lines, thoughtful detailing, and a rugged finish, the Ryan Shorts tap into the spirit of heritage workwear while staying versatile enough for the everyday rotation.

The foundation of the Ryan Double Knee Shorts lies in their heavy-duty cotton canvas construction. Durable and structured, the fabric offers lasting strength and a substantial hand feel. Designed with functionality in mind, these shorts feature double-knee reinforcement across the front panels, originally developed for workers who needed added protection in high-stress zones. We’ve preserved that detail not just for its resilience, but for its aesthetic edge.

Visually, each pair is accented with distressed paneling across the thighs and pockets, giving the shorts a worn-in feel and lived-in energy that adds character to every wear. Raw hems and frayed edges further enhance the broken-in look, offering a gritty contrast to the otherwise clean structure.

Whether you're on the move or laying low, the silhouette is made for comfort. A mid-rise waist, relaxed seat and thigh, and straight-leg cut offer a classic fit that doesn’t sacrifice mobility. The proportions are dialed in for balance: roomy enough to layer with ease, yet structured enough to hold their shape. From downtown sidewalks to off-grid trails, the Ryan Shorts are up for anything.

More than just good looks, the Ryan Shorts are built with practical features drawn straight from traditional carpenter gear. A bellowed side pocket provides expandable storage without extra bulk. The accent hammer loop is a subtle nod to utility, adding function and character. Reinforced rivets at stress points enhance long-term durability, while the raw hems add a bit of edge to the finish.

Available in two versatile colorways—Washed Brown and Washed Olive—the neutral palette works across seasons and styles. Paired with a crisp tee, a heavyweight flannel, or one of our signature mesh tanks, the Ryan Shorts adapt to your mood and your movement.

As we continue to blur the lines between technical gear and streetwear staples, the Ryan Double Knee Shorts represent our approach to design: purposeful, durable, and style-forward. The growing influence of workwear in fashion isn’t just aesthetic—it’s about honoring garments that were built to serve. We keep that same energy by creating pieces that aren’t just made to be seen—they’re made to be worn.

The Ryan Double Knee Shorts are available here in Washed Brown and Washed Olive, only at FEATURE.
