News — Shorts

Finally, the day is here: All-Around Shorts are back in every size and color we've got.

Since our super-successful Kickstarter two summers ago, these versatile threads have become one of Pistol Lake's most sought-after items.

And for good reason...  All-Around Shorts are meant for, well, everything.

The Fabulous Facts

- Water-resistant
- Four-way stretch
- Cell phone snap pocket
- Elastic waistband for comfort
- Back welt pocket for a minimalist aesthetic
- Double reinforced stitching

Starting now, they're restocked in Black, Charcoal, Navy, Gargoyle, Tan, and Olive. 

With their no-sheen tailored look, you can go from hike to happy hour with breezy ease. We reduced some pesky pocket flares and tight waistbands, so these shorts are better than ever.

In February, we launched the immaculately-comfortable Stretch Terry Joggers – today, we're back... with less.

Less pants, that is. More quality products... but just with less fabric.

Yeah, you're right, that worked better in our heads too.

Like heaven on earth, our Stretch Terry Shorts are crazy soft and ready for all your greatest adventures. But should your sights be set on something a little more local, these lightweight shorts are perfect for curling up with a book or grilling on the deck too.

If you're new to the neighborhood or just emerging from underneath a year-long pandemic rock – simply put, Stretch Terry is our softest fabric yet. 

We've launched in Black, Gray, Charcoal, Navy, and Forest – all wrapped up in the same cut as our well-loved French Terry Sweat Shorts and finished off with a snap pocket for safe storage.

For months, y'all have wondered when the French Terry Sweat Shorts would come back – and here's your official, on-the-record answer:

We were building something even better.

Unless you've been living under a rock for the last few months, you know that a pretty important election is right around the corner. But all the talk about a big country-wide map and the colors they might turn in November got us wondering about our own.

So, we dug into the data to figure out what Pistol Lake item is the most popular in each state – and the results were wild!

So we’re counting down the Pistol Lake champions of September 2020…but are you late to the party or leading the charge?

Last year, we could barely keep these stocked up during the holiday season. Grab yours in the slick Charcoal while you still can.

8. Cotton Henley
Although we love our Eudae, there’s nothing wrong with a classic cotton fit either – perfect for both WFH and hikes, so what’s not to love?

9. Minimalist Baseball Tee

Our Minimalist Baseball Tee is just in time for the postseason. Whether you’re matching your favorite team's colors or just trying to look good on that cute hayride date, we got you covered.

10. Minimalist Boxer Briefs
Listen, everybody needs underwear, that’s why it made the list twice! No matter how you style your downstairs region, there’s a heavenly-feeling option here for you. 

And that's the list! Whether you've got a long-time favorite or a need for something brand new, Pistol Lake has got your back. 

Happy Hunting! 

Last summer, Pistol Lake spun up a Kickstarter to fund the creation of our new product, the All-Around Shorts. Needless to say, the campaign was a massive success and raised 3x the amount we originally aimed for – and, recently, they started shipping out to our backers.

Well, you might be thinking, that’s cool, but did I miss my chance to grab a pair? Never fear, my friends.

After the dust settled, we had a handful of extras left in each size and color – even better, as of this very second, they’re live on the website.

Given their water-resistance and durable four-way stretch, the All-Around Shorts are the most versatile pair you’ll ever own. Whether you’re sneaking in a quick workout or hanging by the fire, our newest invention is ready for whatever the day throws at you. Now available in Black, Charcoal, Navy, Gargoyle, Tan, and Olive.
