Description
Product Overview
These men’s mohair striped knitted drawstring shorts are worked in horizontal stripes on a cream base, with pink and purple tones carried in the stripe. The reference samples show the stripe running across both legs, and where the two legs meet the stripes read as a V shape. The surface carries a visible halo, which is part of how the yarn looks once knitted.
The waist is elasticated and finished with a drawstring in the same cream direction, and each leg opening is closed with a ribbed cuff rather than a simple cut edge. The leg is cut straight and relaxed, and the length falls below the knee. The V where the legs meet comes from the knit direction, not from placement: each leg is knitted across the body width, so the stripe turns where the panels join. Displayed colorways are reference shades only, and production colors are developed to the buyer’s palette.
This yarn family is covered in our mohair knitwear guide, and the wider category sits in the custom men’s sweater collection.
Key Features
- Horizontal stripes on a cream base with pink and purple tones
- V-shaped stripe convergence where the two legs meet
- Elasticated waist finished with a drawstring
- Ribbed cuff closing each leg opening
- Visible halo across the knitted surface
- Straight relaxed leg falling below the knee
Because the stripes are knitted rather than printed, the direction follows the knit structure across the leg and turns at the join. Development support for this yarn family is under our OEM and ODM knitwear services, or tell us the stripe direction you want.

Suitable Buyers and Collections
Streetwear and surf-adjacent labels adding a striped knit bottom to a range, menswear brands that use a single stripe as the whole identity, and private-label collections extending a knit top program into shorts. It suits buyers building a summer group where the same stripe runs across a tee and a short, and online retailers that need the stripe to read clearly against the leg line.
Custom Development Information
A stripe direction or artwork, a size chart and a color direction is what we need. We check the yarn and the rib that will hold the leg cuffs, then knit a sample where the stripe sequence, the waist and the cuff depth can be seen together.
MOQ is confirmed after reviewing the yarn, color, craftsmanship and order requirements. Sampling and production schedules are confirmed after all design details are approved. The stripe sequence is agreed on the sample, because a different repeat changes the panel width.
Frequently Asked Questions
What colors appear in the stripe pattern?
A cream base carrying horizontal stripes in pink and purple tones. The samples shown are reference shades only.
How does the stripe sit where the two legs meet?
The stripes converge into a V shape at the join, because the stripe follows the knit structure across each leg rather than being printed on.
How is the waist adjusted?
With an elasticated waistband and a drawstring finished in the same cream direction as the base.
What finishes the leg openings?
A ribbed cuff closes each leg opening, rather than a plain cut edge, and the rib depth is set from buyer reference.
Is there a visible halo on the surface?
Yes. A halo is visible across the knitted surface in the photographed samples, which is how this yarn looks once knitted.
What length are the shorts?
The leg falls below the knee, cut straight and relaxed. Length is developed from buyer measurement.
Can the stripe colors be changed?
Yes. Base and stripe colors are handled as two separate decisions, so the sequence can be reworked for a collection.
Which yarn is used for these shorts?
Mohair blend is listed for this style, and the yarn surface is what you see in the halo.
