The Gramicci Nylon Packable G-Shorts in Black are a functional and understated staple built for those who demand low-maintenance, high-utility summer gear. The robust nylon build stands up to the rigours of the trail and the pool alike, shedding water quickly to prevent a heavy or damp feel. Featuring a convenient packable rear pocket, they are a dependable travel companion that provides a clean, minimalist look without compromising on the brand's signature climbing-inspired movement.

At Urban Industry we recommend

• Summer hiking and trekking where weight and packability are priorities
• Watersports, paddleboarding, and casual swimming due to the quick-dry fabric
• International travel and backpacking where space in your kit is limited
• Everyday summer wear for a clean, functional, and utilitarian look

Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These shorts feature a classic relaxed fit with a shorter inseam compared to standard models
• Here at the store we recommend choosing one size larger than your usual UK size, as this brand uses Japanese sizing which typically runs small
• The elasticated waistband and built-in webbing belt allow for a precise and comfortable fit
• The lightweight nylon provides a structured yet flexible silhouette that does not restrict movement

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash on a cool or temperate cycle to maintain the technical properties of the nylon
• Rinse with fresh water after use in salt water or chlorine to prolong the life of the fabric
• Air dry naturally by hanging, as the quick-dry material will be ready to wear in a very short time
• Avoid using a tumble dryer or iron, as high heat can damage the synthetic fibres and the integrated belt

Our Gramicci Nylon Packable G-Shorts FAQs

1. Are these shorts waterproof? While not fully waterproof, the high-density nylon is water-repellent and designed to dry extremely quickly once wet.

2. Can I use these as swimming trunks? Yes, the fabric is chlorine-resistant and the pockets are designed to drain water, making them excellent amphibious shorts.

3. How small do they pack down? They fold into the rear pocket, reaching a size roughly equivalent to a small travel pouch, which can be easily clipped to a bag.
