How to design your own shorts in 4 simple steps​

Creating personalised shorts has never been easier. Our free Design Maker walks you through the entire process, from picking a product to finalising your design.​

Part 1

Customise the shorts​

First, choose the perfect canvas for your design. We offer a range of styles to suit every need, from breathable athletic shorts for the gym to comfy loungewear shorts perfect for a lazy Sunday. Browse our Product Catalogue and find the pair that’s right for you.​

Part 2

Customize the shorts

This is where the magic happens. Upload your own logo, artwork, or a photo – or design your own products from scratch using our built-in tools. Add text, create patterns, or browse our massive library of free clipart to bring your vision to life. You’ll see it all come together on a realistic mockup.​

Part 3

Order for yourself​

Want to check the quality and fit before you launch? Order a sample pair for yourself to make sure everything is perfect. We’re confident you’ll love the quality of our short printing and embroidery.​

Part 4

Sell them online​

Once you’re happy with your design, add the shorts to your online store. Connect Printful to eCommerce platforms like Shopify, Etsy, or WooCommerce, and we’ll handle all the order fulfilment for you. When a customer in the UK buys a pair, we’ll print, pack, and ship it directly to them from our UK facility. This is the power of Print on Demand.

What kind of personalised shorts can you create?

Whether you’re creating for yourself, a team, or launching a brand, here are a few ideas to get you started.​

Shorts for your sports club or gym sessions

Design custom kits for your local football club, rugby team, or running group. Add player names, squad numbers, and your club crest for a professional look that builds team spirit. Our athletic shorts are made from breathable, performance-ready fabrics.​

Unique fashion for festivals and holidays​

Stand out at Glastonbury or create the ultimate stag do uniform. Use all-over print to cover your shorts in eye-catching patterns, funny slogans, or unique artwork that captures the moment.​

Branded shorts for your business​

Looking for practical workwear for summer or promotional merchandise for an event? Add your company logo to a pair of smart, durable shorts. It’s a great way to keep your team looking professional and feeling comfortable.​

Why partner with Printful for custom shorts in the UK?​

We’re more than just a printer; we’re your partner in creativity. Whether you're a sole trader just starting out or a growing limited company, Printful is built to help you succeed.

Local UK fulfilment for speedy delivery​

Our UK facility means your orders are produced and shipped locally. For your customers across the UK, this translates to faster delivery times (often via carriers like Royal Mail), lower shipping costs, and absolutely no surprise customs fees or import duties.​

No upfront costs or minimum orders​

Forget about buying in bulk and risking unsold stock. With Printful, you only pay when you get an order. It costs £0 to sign up, design your products, and add them to your store. Want to order just one pair of personalised shorts? No problem.​

Premium quality you can trust​

We use industry-leading equipment for all our printing and embroidery, ensuring every design is sharp, vibrant, and durable. From the stitching on the seams to the richness of the colour, we’re obsessed with quality.​
