How Can You Accurately Determine Your Fit and Sizing?
Because cuts vary across styles, checking sizing details helps you achieve your preferred fit. The sample items in this category generally come in sizes S, M, and L, with select styles offering XL.

How Do Material Blends and Construction Impact Wear and Care?
Fabric composition determines how shorts drape, feel against your skin, and handle routine laundering. The shorts in this sample are made from either 100% polyester or blended polyester and cotton fabrics.
Pure polyester holds vibrant dyed colors and sharp printed check patterns through regular wear, while polyester-cotton blends combine easy washing with a soft, natural hand-feel.
