When the heat's on, your gear needs to keep up. The Work Shorts for Men & Women collection from Hard Yakka is built for those who don’t slow down just because the sun’s out. These are tough, lightweight shorts designed to keep you cool, comfortable, and ready for anything.
Whether you're on site, out landscaping, working the yard, or just getting stuck into a weekend project, you need workwear that won’t overheat or wear out. Our shorts are made with strong, breathable fabrics that can take a beating and still feel good at the end of the day. Reinforced stitching, ripstop panels, and flexible fits come as standard – because rough work doesn't stop for summer.
For men, our work shorts offer room to move, secure storage, and a no-fuss fit. For women, every style is designed specifically to suit the female form – no oversized waistbands or clumsy cuts, just proper workwear built to fit and built to last.
You’ll find utility pockets, stretch panels, hammer loops and more – all the features that tradies, sparkies, chippies, and DIYers count on to get the job done. And with select styles using REPREVE® recycled fibres, it's kinder to the planet with zero compromise on strength.
This isn’t off-duty wear. These are shorts made to work – from sunrise to knock-off, indoors and out.
Tough where it counts. Cool when it matters.
Nothing’s tougher than Hard Yakka.
