Black Washed Linen Elasticated Shorts

Soft, breezy and quietly versatile, these black washed linen shorts have that lived-in feel from the very first wear. The linen-cotton blend has been washed for a beautifully textured finish, giving a relaxed drape that moves with you through warm afternoons and lazy weekends.

The elasticated waistband keeps things comfortable without compromising on shape, while two deep side pockets add a practical edge. Cut in a generous, easy fit that flatters up to a UK size 14, they pair just as happily with a simple white tee as they do with a linen blouse for something a little dressier. Made in Italy from a 50% linen and 50% cotton blend, they're a small but considered addition to your summer shorts edit.

Whether you're heading to a garden lunch, a weekend by the coast, or simply pottering through your day, these are the kind of shorts you'll reach for again and again. Discovered at Urban Wild, our ethical boutique in Worcester Park, where slow fashion finds a happy home.
