The Raider Field (Werx) Short Canvas+ is based on our best selling Raider Pant and dialed for DIYers, craftsman, garage-cavers, ranch to range, tool users, and those who live in shorts for as much of the year as you can. These are rugged, durable, versatile and expertly stitched right here in the USA with small batch production. Feature rich, plain front, and made with a hearty 11oz, cotton canvas with a touch of Spandex for extra freedom of movement. With many considerations for today’s self reliant user and the EDC tribe, there are ample pockets without creating a cluttered or bulky design. Available in All Terrain Brown. #raiderfieldpant Like most of our designs, we use industrial grade construction methods such as heavy duty nylon thread, triple needle stitching on major seams, and more bar-tacks to reinforce stress points than any other short in its class. The cut and silhouette is our all round regular fit for year round comfort and of course, classic good looks. Built to last and to be used season after season, and survive far beyond the styles from the fast fashion industry.


Design highlights include, no-twist custom D-rings, diamond gusset, diamond double seat, dedicated knife-multitool pockets, work wear style hand pockets which are accessible when using a pack waist or utility to first line belt, a Hide-Away pocket to stash those little "extras", PDW slotted parasmock type no-loss buttons, and a YKK zipper with a locking slider. Designed and built to last in California USA. *Accessories shown in product images are optional and not included.*

Canvas+

Made with our custom woven, 11oz cotton canvas with 2% Spandex for a touch of extra movement. The build quality starts with the finest in materials, custom made to our spec. Cotton canvas is not thermoplastic and will not melt. It does not build up static electricity, which is important in workshop environments, especially around combustible gases and liquids. Cotton canvas is also absorbent and has a high heat conductivity making it more comfortable in warm to hot workshop conditions.

Designed for EDC

Not only are these shorts purpose driven in design, they also feature a long standing PDW tradition of carefully considered details to suit the discriminating user who is well versed in EDC. From the dedicated EDC tool pockets, to the custom made Delta-ring clip points, accessory welt pocket for smartphones, and more, the Raider Short covers the core and all in a clean, uncluttered appearance.

Built Tough
Built to Last

These shorts represent some of the last bastions of expertly made, American garment manufacturing. Made in small production batches, with industrial grade triple needle stitching, ample bar-tacks for extra durable reinforcements, and also a very high level of refinement and tolerances that have even impressed custom suit tailors. Built tough, built to last, built in the USA.

Details Make
the Design

"The whole is greater than the sum of its parts."
- Aristotle

PDW carefully considers and then applies a host of design details into the making of these shorts. From the angles of the pockets, double layers of materials to reinforce areas of highest wear, buttons that will never pop off from loose stitching, specifically assigned belt loop spacing, horseshoe gusset for freedom of movement, and more; all come together for a superlative, product outcome.

Long Life
Apparel

PDW has not nor will it ever subscribe to so-called "fast fashion". It's simply not within our DNA. First and foremost, our apparel designs are purpose built, form follows function. The "styling and good looks" are a natural consequence and byproduct of pragmatism, intention, and smart design. We build our garments to last for many reasons. We don't want to wear junk or garments that fall apart, we don't want to waste our money on things that are quickly disposed of; we want garments to wear day in and day out, and last season after season. Inherent value in a philosophy of durability, usefulness, and high function.

DIY and
Self-Reliance

We build our garments for those who would rather do-it-yourself, because you can. You have the grit and determination to see the job, mission, and task, through to the end, and do so, by your own hand. You are also quick to lend a helping hand to those who need it, and show others how it's done.

Eva ★★★★★

Wore these while rebuilding a fence gate all weekend and the canvas held up without a single tear or fray. The hammer loop sits right where I need it, and the extra give in the waist makes bending and squatting way less annoying than my old denim shorts.

Julian L. ★★★★★

The pockets are laid out perfectly for tools, and the double-layer panels haven't shown any wear after three weekends of yard work and garage projects. Fabric breathes well even on hot afternoons, so I've basically been living in these since they arrived.

Ellie ★★★★★

Canvas+ fabric feels way tougher than your average cotton short, and the fit is cut just like a good work pant so nothing binds when you're bending over a toolbox. I've worn them through a full weekend of fence repair and they still look presentable for grabbing dinner after. These are my new go-to
