Short en velours côtelé Club / Moka

The front pleats give these shorts just enough structure without making them feel stiff, and the mocha color is even richer in person. The wide-leg cut moves nicely in the heat, and the double back pocket is actually deep enough for my phone.

The raw-edge hems are such a nice touch—they keep the shorts feeling laid-back even with the sharp pleats up front. I've worn them pretty much every warm day since they arrived, and the mocha color goes with everything I own.

The wide-leg cut and front pleats give these shorts a polished shape that dresses up way better than your average summer pair, and the double welt pocket in back is a nice touch. The raw-edge hems keep them feeling laid-back though, so they work just as well for errands as they do for brunch.
