Well Tailored, Comfortable and Stylish Shorts

Ordered these because my chino shorts were looking a bit beaten up after months of constant use during the heatwave. Fitted perfectly straight out of the bag and the linen cotton blend looks and feels good too. Very happy with this purchase.

Good quality, smart shorts. I chose natural linen colour and they go well with the navy David Gandy textured shirt.

V good fit/ vol; the seat and (medium) length are just right pour (skinny 178cm) moi. Side adjusters and pleats add formality to the aesthetics. On-seam pockets would be perfect: shame Marks aren’t doing them this summer. Nothing on the market outclasses this style for the price. A timeless piece. Hope the dye/ material holds in the (with care) washing.

Good fitted shorts with neat lines. The side adjustment tags are good and eliminated the need for a belt.
