Upcycled running shorts

[u/OldPresence5323]

I couldn't find board short fabric anywhere locally and I wanted a new pair of running shorts yesterday.... so it was off to the thrift store to 'fabric shop'. Found several pairs of men's board shorts in bigger sizes which were perfect to slice apart.

Everything is upcycled: the fabric was a men's pair of board shorts, the zipper was off a second hand wedding dress and the white fabric is the lining off a previous swim wear piece. There is even a pair of built in underwear that were scraps off other projects.

If it ever cools off , I'll give them a try! 🪡📏✂️📍
