Fit Guide
The Dobson Stubs have a traditional short-leg cut with an elastic waistband and adjustable drawstring. These shorts run small, so Hunters Element recommends choosing one size larger than your usual size. For the best fit, lay a favourite pair of shorts flat and compare the waistband circumference and inseam with the measurements above.
Note: Measurements refer to the garment, not body dimensions. A variation of up to 1cm is within the manufacturer's tolerance.
