Designed for Heat & Movement
The Cowboy Shorty is the summer evolution of our classic Cowboy pants.
Less fabric. More air. More freedom.
Especially on very warm days, children need clothes that don't trap heat, don't weigh them down, and don't restrict them.
The thin interlock feels soft against the skin and naturally regulates temperature and moisture.
This keeps your child comfortably dressed even in hot weather.
Elimination Communication – simply conceived
As with all our EC pants, the integrated opening allows for quick, uncomplicated EC – without completely undressing.
Whether at home, in the garden or on the go:
One movement is enough.
Three wearing options
Under the EC diaper (Crawler or Babysize)
For warm days when you still want to use the system.
Without diaper
Ideal for children who are increasingly aware of their excretions and want to move freely.
With insert as a minimal backup
Light, minimalistic and practical for small puddles.
The Summer Interlock
The Merino interlock used is deliberately lightweight:
-
thin & air-permeable
-
temperature-regulating
-
odor-regulating
-
soft & skin-friendly
-
yet robust enough for everyday use
And just like our other interlock pants, the Shorty also matches our Jacquard EC diapers perfectly in color – for a harmonious, functional set.

Material
The raw wool for this product comes from Argentina, is GOTS-certified, and mulesing-free. It is knitted in our knitting mill on the Swabian Jura, not far from Lake Constance – regionally, fairly, and with great care.
This product was manufactured in our also GOTS-certified sewing factory in Hungary.
Washing instructions
- Wool detergent
- Hand wash or wool cycle up to 30 °C
- Spin at max. 800 rpm
- Do not tumble dry
Wool is naturally self-cleaning and antibacterial. It does not need to be washed immediately after contact with urine or breast milk stool. Simply let it dry, brush it off, air it out, and only wash it when that is no longer sufficient.
Care & Longevity
Wool is a natural material with exceptional properties: it is temperature-regulating, self-cleaning, hardly absorbs odors, and needs to be washed much less frequently than other materials. Often, simply airing it out or gently brushing it is enough – which not only saves time but also resources.
Despite its robustness, wool is not indestructible. The wear and tear largely depends on how intensively a garment is used. If the same pair of trousers is worn daily, it will naturally show signs of wear faster than if several wool trousers are rotated.
Our recommendation: For everyday wear, 3 pairs of wool trousers in rotation are ideal. This maintains their function and ensures the trousers accompany you sustainably through many adventures.
