FAQs
What material are these shorts made of?
The shorts are made of 100% linen for the main shell and 100% cotton for the pocket linings.
How should I wash these linen shorts?
It is recommended to either hand wash them or have them dry cleaned. Machine washing is not advised.
What is the inseam length for all sizes?
All sizes have an inseam length of 11.43 cm (4.5 inches).
Do these shorts have pockets?
Yes, they feature side pockets integrated into the seams and back welt pockets.
What is the rise of these shorts?
These shorts have a high-waisted design.
Are these shorts suitable for very casual wear?
While comfortable due to the linen, the tailored fit and pleats lend themselves to slightly more dressed-up casual looks or semi-formal summer occasions.
How do the pleats affect the fit?
The pleats at the front waistband create a gentle fullness and drape, contributing to an elegant silhouette without adding bulk.
Troubleshooting
Shorts appear wrinkled after washing.
Linen is prone to wrinkling. Try ironing the shorts while slightly damp on a low heat setting, or use a fabric steamer. Ensure proper drying and storage techniques are followed.
Color fading.
Follow the 'hand wash or dry clean only' instructions strictly. Washing in cold water and avoiding harsh detergents can help preserve color.
Fit is not as expected.
Refer to the specific measurements provided for size 8 (33.66 cm inseam height, 72.39 cm leg opening width) and compare them to your own. Consider trying different sizes if possible, as fit can vary.
