Wide-leg shorts so sophisticated they slot in at the office and are game for whatever the weekend brings. With Summer, we wanted to work in a few grown-up details, like pressed pleats and trouser-like pockets in back, that feel far, far more elevated than your regular jean shorts. See the high-rise fit? The subtle A-line shape? The not-too-skimpy length? They’re ultraflattering on practically anyone. What makes these shorts so special, though, is the rigid Italian denim—the kind that keeps its shape and never bags out.
