Ripstop Gunnee Shorts - Cement

We recommend sizing up in our Ripstop fabric. Our classic drill fabric gives with washing and wearing, and our lightweight Ripstop will hold its shape. So if your SÜK size in Drill is 16, we recommend a size 18 in Ripstop.

Available online only.

Our best-selling Gunnee shorts are now in lightweight 100% cotton ripstop.

Named after our founders’ favourite childhood cattle station. These shorts offer a particular freedom and playfulness that perhaps a lot of us have left behind in adult years. With a wide trouser opening for a full range of movement, the fit reminded her of playing in greasy sheep yards with her siblings, riding in Ute trays, sharing milo and mattresses with the work dogs and working cattle three times your size. These shorts are a nod to the bravery and freedom of the country kids: may we never grow up.

Our Fabric

Meet our new Summer weight Ripstop Fabric.

Made from 100% Fairtrade Cotton, this fabric will arrive to your door crisp and light and whilst it will soften with a wash it will hold its shape more than our softer & heavier drill.

As this is a natural material, it does have it’s limitations: like most 100% cottons, with constant wear, tear and laundering, the cotton can weaken over time. So whilst our styles are designed for long term, day to day use, if you are kneeling on abrasive surfaces regularly, we suggest to invest in some knee pads to avoid rips and holes.

Always line dry in shade to keep colours looking prime for years to come.
