Why Plus Size Black Bermuda Shorts Are a Wardrobe Essential
This is one of the most versatile shorts in our collection.
- Hides Sweat Marks and Creases: The Jet Black fabric is excellent at hiding sweat marks, stains and creases, which makes it a low-maintenance short for daily use.
- Two Black Stripes Inside the Red Panel: Two black stripes sit inside the thick red side panel. This minimalist detail gives the shorts a clean “Track & Field” look.
- Breathable, Cotton-Rich Comfort: The 80% cotton blend is breathable, and the ribbed texture helps keep the fabric from clinging to your legs in the heat.
Engineered for Waist Sizes 34-52
- Built for Friction: The 20% polyester reinforces the fabric in the thigh area, which helps it resist wear from friction.
- Shape Retention: The structured 230 GSM fabric helps the shorts hold their shape through regular washing.
- Above-the-Knee Length: Cut to sit above the knee, so the fabric doesn’t catch on your knees when you sit or squat. Ideal for gym sessions and active use.
- High-Rise Waistband: Sits comfortably over the belly so the shorts don’t slide down.
- Two Deep Side Pockets: Big enough for a phone and wallet.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the design look like?
These shorts have a Jet Black base with a red side panel running down the leg, two black stripes inside the panel and a matching red Particle logo embroidery.
Are these black Bermuda shorts or half pants?
They are both. In India, Bermuda shorts are also sold as half pants. These black plus size Bermuda shorts with a red side panel are relaxed-fit half pants for men in sizes XL to 5XL (waist 34 to 52 inches).
How long are these shorts?
They end just above the knee, which gives free movement and good airflow on hot days.
What sizes are available?
These shorts come in XL, 2XL, 3XL, 4XL and 5XL for waists from 34 to 52 inches. For a 48 inch waist choose 4XL, and for a 50 to 52 inch waist choose 5XL.
What fabric are these plus size black bermuda shorts made from?
They are made from 230 GSM hosiery corduroy, an 80% cotton and 20% polyester blend with a ribbed, matte finish.

What is the difference between your 230 GSM and 190 GSM shorts?
