Cargo shorts with flap pockets and drawstring sewing pattern for men — Shorts 028

Shorts 028 is a digital sewing pattern for men from the Moldey catalog: cargo shorts with flap pockets and drawstring.
The shorts have an elasticized waist with a drawstring, side pockets with a flap and snap closure, and a graphic patch applied on the leg. The cut is straight and the length sits above the knee.
Because the pockets need a firm body to hold their shape, the shorts work best in gabardine or rustic cotton, fabrics that stand up to everyday wear.
Recommended fabrics: Gabardine, Rustic cotton, Twill and Nylon.
