FAQs
What is the exact inside leg measurement?
The inside leg measures 5.5 inches, which is approximately 14cm.
Is the material stretchy?
These shorts are made primarily from cotton and do not feature high-stretch synthetic materials, so they provide a soft, structured fit.
How should I wash these shorts?
We recommend machine washing on a cool, gentle cycle and hanging them to dry.
Are the pockets deep enough for a smartphone?
The pockets are designed for utility and can comfortably hold small items like keys, cards, or a slim smartphone.
Does the paperbag waist include a belt?
The shorts feature a built-in paperbag-style finish, which creates the gathered waist look without requiring an external belt.
Troubleshooting
Waistband feels tight after washing
Cotton can naturally tighten when dried with heat. Avoid tumble drying and gently stretch the waistband while damp to restore its shape.
Fabric wrinkles easily
This is common with high-cotton content garments. Use a garment steamer or a light iron setting to quickly remove wrinkles before wearing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your shorts maintain their fit and longevity, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle in cold water to prevent shrinking.
- Drying: Air dry is recommended to protect the integrity of the cotton fibers; avoid high heat in a tumble dryer.
- Ironing: Use a medium-heat iron to smooth out the paperbag waist details if they become wrinkled after washing.
- Storage: Hang the shorts by the waistband to prevent deep creases from forming in the fabric.
