Create More Than One View
For a shorts listing, show the main design from the front, then use a back or side view and a lifestyle shot to show the rest of the product.

Show the Details
A close-up can show things you won’t notice in the full image, like the fabric, waistband, drawstring, and stitching.

Show Different Colors From the Same Design

If you sell the same shorts in different colors, create a mockup for each color you offer.

You understood how to make a shorts mockup.
Show the shorts from different angles, add a close-up if you want to show the fabric or stitching, and try a lifestyle shot. If you’re using your own product photo, you can also change the scene or try different colors.
Use Mockey’s shorts mockup generator to fix small details. Keep the design in line with the shape of the shorts so the folds and fabric texture are still visible.
Mockey AI’s free plan lets you download shorts mockups as PNG files without a watermark.
Choose a template that matches the shorts you’re selling. If your product is loose cargo shorts, don’t use a fitted running-shorts template. The fit, length, pockets, and fabric should look similar to the real thing.
A shorts mockup looks more realistic when you can still see the fabric folds and texture. Also, the graphic should follow the shape of the shorts.
For your listing, show the front, back, or side, and a lifestyle shot. You can use the other images for sizing, fabric details, or care instructions.
Go to AI Studio, upload your shorts photo, write what you want the scene to look like, and generate it.
