  • Perfect Fit

    Engineered using shorts from our archive, the fit is truly incredible. Smaller front panels allow the legs to create shape without restricting movement. Split hems are incorporated for added mobility. Our eight pocket cargo system provides ample storage for your essentials.

  • Waxed Stretch Cotton Fabric

    New and improved waxed cotton fabric developed exclusively for Shorts Archive. Medium weight 97% cotton, 3% elastic fabric is treated with a wax finish. The wax finish makes the fabric hydrophobic to reduce odors from sweat. Elastic in the weft provides a generous horizontal stretch. The material becomes softer with wear and wash.

  • Tall Elastic Waistband

    The thick elastic waistband is designed to offer a variety of styling opportunities. Experiment by wearing your shorts above the hips, below, or somewhere in between. Adjust further with a new tonal drawstring tipped with heat sealed aglets.

  • Side Seam Cargo Pockets

    Deep side pockets are a must for any pair of shorts. Side seam pocket construction is simple and subtle. Asymmetric cargo pockets are placed over the seam and blend into the split hem.

  • Hybrid Back Pockets

    Another experimental pocket design, we layered flap pockets on top of welt pockets to create a hybrid storage solution. Welt pocket construction is simple, subtle, and highly functional. Flap pockets conceal the welt pockets and provide additional storage.

  • Always Have What You Need

    Cargo Shorts are designed to turn heads on the street and built to endure the outdoors. Whether you're stepping out for lunch or miles away from everything, Cargo Shorts will get you to where you need to go

  • Patterned from our archive

    To achieve the perfect fit, we dissected and reinmagined shorts that we've collected from the best designer brands in the world.

  • Designed by hand

    Patterned and sewn by hand before ever reaching a factory, we tried multiple prototypes and poured countless hours into getting our sample production ready.

  • Designer inspired materials

    We dive into our archive to compare materials before finalizing each design. Materials are carefully selected according to the garments intended end use.

  • Always affordable

    There are enough brands charging hundreds of dollars for athletic style shorts. Our goal is to produce the highest quality, most accessible pair of shorts.
