Product Information
Full details
These Paulo Due Casual Stretch Knee Length Shorts are designed for adult women seeking comfortable and versatile summer wear. Their key benefit is a flattering slim fit with a high waist and a soft bengaline material that offers all-day comfort and flexibility, suitable for both casual outings and evening events. A potential consideration is the specific inseam length of 13" (33cms), which may be longer than some expect for 'shorts' but is characteristic of the pedal pusher style. Key features include a slim fit, high waist design, skin-friendly bengaline fabric, a stylish side split detail at the cuff, and ample stretch for ease of movement.
