Bisley BSH1007 – Original Cotton Drill Work Short

Bisley BSH1007 – Original Cotton Drill Work Short

When you’re out on site, you need gear that can handle whatever the day throws at you — dust, dirt, heat, and long hours. The Bisley BSH1007 Original Cotton Drill Work Short is built to do exactly that. Trusted by tradies all across Australia, these work shorts combine durability, comfort, and a traditional fit that’s made for real work.

Made from 100% preshrunk cotton drill, the BSH1007 delivers that tough, breathable feel you want when the sun’s beating down. The heavyweight 310gsm fabric stands up to scrapes and wear, yet it’s soft enough to keep you comfy all day long. Whether you’re laying bricks, on the tools, or running between jobs, these shorts can take a beating and still look sharp at knock-off time.

Built Tough for Aussie Conditions

Bisley knows what works for Australian tradies — and these shorts are no exception. The cotton drill fabric is tightly woven for extra strength, giving you a reliable barrier against the elements. Because it’s preshrunk, you won’t have to worry about your shorts shrinking after the first wash — they’ll stay true to size, wear after wear.

With reinforced stitching throughout and seven heavy-duty belt loops, these shorts are made to last. The YKK zipper adds another level of quality you can trust — smooth, strong, and built to handle constant use without jamming or breaking.

Comfort Meets Practicality

The Bisley BSH1007 is designed with real-world functionality in mind. Featuring single front pleats for extra room and flexibility, these shorts let you move freely on the job. The 17cm (6.5-inch) in-leg length sits comfortably above the knee — the perfect balance between coverage and airflow.

You’ll find two angled side pockets up front that are deep enough for your hands, gloves, or a quick stash of screws. Around the back, there are two patch pockets, ideal for your wallet or folded plans. And of course, Bisley hasn’t forgotten the essentials: a mobile phone pocket on the right-hand side so your phone’s always within reach, plus a coin pocket built into the waistband — a small touch, but a handy one when you need somewhere to keep loose change or a key.

Classic Fit, Everyday Style

These shorts feature a traditional fit, giving you that timeless Bisley look that’s neither too tight nor too loose. It’s the kind of fit that looks professional without restricting your movement. The waistband sits comfortably at your hips, with enough room for your work belt and all the gear you hang off it.

Available in a range of classic workwear colours — Khaki, Bottle (green), and Navy — there’s an option to suit every site or uniform. Pair them with a hi-vis shirt or a simple tee, and you’re good to go.

Sizes for Every Bloke

Bisley caters to all shapes and sizes, with the BSH1007 available from size 77 through to 132. Whether you’re a lean apprentice or a seasoned tradesman, you’ll find a fit that works for you.

Why Tradies Love Them

These shorts have become a staple across worksites for a reason. They’re tough enough for hard yakka, comfortable enough for long shifts, and smart enough to wear to the pub after work. When you’re buying Bisley, you’re investing in Australian workwear that’s been tried and tested for decades.

So if you’re after a pair of work shorts that can handle the rough stuff, keep you cool, and still look good doing it — the Bisley BSH1007 Original Cotton Drill Work Short is the one to grab.
