100% Linen Pleated Straight Leg Shorts

Straight leg linen shorts with a pleated front, cut for a day that starts at a desk and ends somewhere with a sea breeze. The mid-rise elastic waist means you're not fighting the fabric by 3pm, and the length sits at a point that works whether you're at a desk or out the door straight after.

The fabric

100% linen at 170gsm, garment-dyed, opaque and mediumweight. Heavy enough to hold a crease, light enough to breathe through a warm afternoon. The garment-dye process means the colour has already been worked into the fabric before cutting, so it wears in rather than fades out.

The fit

Regular fit through the hip, straight leg, mid rise with a partial elastic waist. Pleats at the front give it room without adding bulk, and the straight leg keeps the line clean from waist to hem.

How to wear it

Built for the office. Wear them with a tucked shirt at the desk, then swap the shirt for a plain tee once the day's done and it's still warm enough to sit outside. They hold their shape well enough for a client meeting too.

Care

Machine wash cold, hang to dry in the shade. Linen creases by nature; a warm iron on the pleats keeps them sharp if that's the look you're after, or leave them be for a softer finish.
