Nelson Sweat Short: Heavyweight Comfort in a Balloon Fit

Forget those flimsy jogging shorts. The Nelson Sweat Short is for those who refuse to compromise on style even when they’re chilling. Carhartt WIP went all-in on the Balloon Fit here—extra wide through the leg, with a dropped crotch and a silhouette that flows perfectly. Crafted from heavy, unbrushed cotton jersey, these shorts feel substantial and rugged without ever feeling restrictive. Ideal for those post-session hours or just hanging out at the skatespot.

Black (Garment Dyed) – Deep Vintage Look

The magic of the Nelson lies in the Garment Dyed process. The shorts are constructed first and then dyed as a whole. The result? A rich, complex color with subtle fading along the seams, giving them an authentic vintage character from day one. With the adjustable drawstring waist and the iconic woven Square Label on the back pocket, these are the ultimate 90s upgrade for your summer rotation.
