Frequently Asked Questions

Are the ankle cuffs adjustable?

Yes, the elastic cuffs provide flexibility and ensure a secure fit for different leg sizes.

Do these pants shrink after washing?

Are they suitable for casual wear?

Yes. The cuffed ankle design blends workwear functionality with a modern streetwear look, making them versatile for off-duty use.

Can I customise these pants with my logo?

Do all Big Bee pants and shorts have an elastic waist?
Yes. Every Big Bee work pant and short is built with an elastic stretch waistband, giving you extra comfort for bending, climbing and long shifts. This design keeps the fit secure while reducing pressure around the waist — a tradie-friendly detail across all our styles.
What makes the pocket design on Big Bee pants and shorts different?
Big Bee adds cargo pockets, pen slots and secure zip compartments so essentials stay close at hand. Unlike basic workwear, our pants and shorts are built around tradie-friendly storage, reducing the need for tool belts in lighter tasks.
Are Big Bee work pants and shorts durable without sacrificing comfort?
Yes. Big Bee pants use a 97-98% cotton and 2-3% spandex blend that combines breathable structure with stretch. This means they hold up to daily wear, kneeling and climbing, while still moving with you on site.
Should I choose pants or shorts for site work?
Pants provide added protection from sparks, sun, and abrasions—suitable for construction, welding, or road work. Shorts are cooler and better for hot warehouse or delivery jobs where mobility is key. Both options feature cargo pockets and reinforced seams for durability. Pants: More protection in cooler weather, with options like cuffed hems and reflective tape. -Shorts: Lighter and cooler for hot days, but still reinforced with the same durable fabric. -Both are designed with multi-pocket utility and elastic waist comfort.
Can all Big Bee workwear products be customised with digital print and embroidery?
Yes. All Big Bee workwear garments are designed with logo-ready panels that suit both digital print and embroidery. Whether it’s polos, shirts, hoodies or jackets, our fabrics and layouts ensure your branding applies cleanly and lasts through repeat wear and washing.
