The secret to a versatile chino short is a fit that’s intentionally relaxed, not sloppy. It's about a confident silhouette that looks put-together without looking like you tried too hard. We lean towards a comfortable mid-rise that sits easy on the waist—not too high, not too low. The leg should have a clean, unfussed line with just enough room to move, creating that coveted laid-back look. An inseam that hits around the mid-thigh is the sweet spot—it’s polished enough for a city lunch but relaxed enough for a weekend away. It's that one-and-done short that makes getting dressed feel effortless.

Black shorts are the ultimate wardrobe foundation—a confident, unfussed piece that grounds any look with an inherent chicness. Their true power lies in their versatility—they can look just as good with a simple Pima cotton T-shirt for a coffee run as they do with a luxe satin top for an evening out. It’s that easy, day to night transition that we live for. When you invest in a pair made from beautiful, mindful fabrics, you’re getting more than just shorts—you’re getting a lasting, versatile staple. The right pair feels comfortable, looks polished, and is designed to be worn for years.

Taking casual shorts beyond the weekend is all about playing with contrast and a confident attitude. We love pairing something relaxed on the bottom with a top that feels a little more considered and polished. It creates an unfussed tension that just works—think casual shorts with a luxe satin top, or a beautifully structured tee with feminine details. It’s that laid-back yet chic mix that feels modern and effortless. The right shoe seals the deal. A simple leather slide keeps things easy and relaxed, while a block heel or an interesting flat can instantly elevate the entire look, making it feel intentional for a day in the city.
