Elastic Waist Short

These shorts rely on a crisp, paper-thin linen blend that captures the light with a slight, structured slouch. The elastic, paper-bag waistband sits high and unencumbered, creating a clean break at the hip that pairs best with a tucked-in tank or a loose, oversized button-down. It is a no-fuss silhouette built for high-heat days where coverage needs to be secondary to airflow.

Safety Rating: Poor

Analysis: The combination of linen with a significant percentage of viscose poses a higher chemical burden due to the intensive solvent-based processing required for regenerated cellulose fibers. While the linen provides natural breathability, the viscose component is less durable and indicates a higher likelihood of chemical residues from production.
