Venroy Linen Shorts

When we say shorts, it doesn’t have to be between boardies, gym shorts, or cotton. There is another variation of the short perfect for the summer season, and that is the linen short. It has the synonymous material with summer suiting as it is highly breathable, lightweight, and presents a great texture. No wonder the linen short has grown so much beyond its suiting confinements to populate more common menswear staple pieces like casual shirts, bomber jackets, and of course, shorts. Venroy, the guy in Sydney, currently makes linen shorts.

No, we are not referring to the traditional board shorts. We are talking about the modern version of swim shorts that are well-refined than ever, and the fit is closer to the legs. The result will give you a tight but more tailored swim short with an extra benefit of functionality, such as quick-dry traits, flexibility, and great colors and patterns. And when we say right swim shorts, it means that they can also serve as a casual lunch item. Orlebar Brown is one of the labels that make great examples.

Long shorts are designed for the ultimate casual days. In the past, long shorts were popularized by skater kids. These days, the long-short is quite more of a refined and sophisticated wardrobe staple, thanks to the premium fabrics’ introduction. As such, you will often find long shorts both at your favorite local skate park and at fashion shows in vastly different forms. You can’t consider them as long shorts unless they have extended past the knees.
