FAQs
Are these shorts transparent?
As with many white linen garments, they are designed with a relaxed fit, but wearing skin-toned undergarments is recommended for complete opacity.
How do I determine if size 18 fits correctly?
The size 18 is designed with a regular fit; you can use the drawcord to tighten the elasticated waistband if you prefer a more cinched feel.
Does the linen shrink?
Linen can naturally shrink slightly in heat; always wash in cool water and avoid high-heat tumble drying.
Can I wear these for formal occasions?
These are intended for casual wear, though they can be dressed up with a blouse and nice sandals for a smart-casual summer look.
Are the pockets deep enough for a phone?
The pockets are designed for small personal items, though large modern smartphones may protrude slightly depending on the device size.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn wrinkles after washing
Use a spray bottle to lightly dampen the fabric before ironing, or use a garment steamer for a safer, heat-controlled approach.
Waistband feels too loose
Adjust the integrated drawcord and tie a secure knot to customize the tension around your waist.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Because these shorts feature a pull-on design, there is no hardware to manage, making them ready to wear immediately. To maintain the quality of the linen:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle using cool water to prevent excessive shrinking.
- Drying: Air dry whenever possible; avoid high-heat tumble drying, which can damage linen fibers.
- Ironing: Iron while slightly damp to remove wrinkles efficiently. Avoid using bleach, especially given the bright white color, as it can yellow the fabric.
- Storage: Fold or hang to prevent deep creasing.
