The 100% European Linen High Waisted Shorts elongate the leg with a higher rise and flattering silhouette. The 100% European Linen Trouser Shorts are lined for breathable coverage, with belt loops and a tailored silhouette and elastic back waistband. The 100% European Linen Skort combines a high-rise skirt panel front with hidden built-in shorts for full coverage.
Why is European linen considered a warm-weather fabric?
Why is European linen considered a warm-weather fabric?
Linen is made from flax fibers — naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and cooling. The fabric structure lets air pass through more easily than cotton, which helps keep you cool in hot weather. European linen specifically tends to be longer-staple and more refined than other linens, with a softer hand-feel. Linen also gets softer with each wash. The visible wrinkles linen develops are characteristic of the fabric, not a defect — they're part of the relaxed, lived-in aesthetic.

Most run true to size. The standard Linen Shorts have a relaxed, lightweight fit through the body. The High Waisted Shorts sit at the natural waist or slightly above with a leg-elongating cut. The Trouser Shorts have an elastic back waistband for ease, with a tailored front silhouette and belt loops — best for shoppers who want a more polished short. The Linen Skort sits high-rise with hidden built-in shorts under the skirt panel.

How do I care for linen shorts?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, hang dry or tumble dry low. Linen wrinkles are characteristic of the fabric — steam easily releases the wrinkles between wears. Linen softens with each wash and ages well. Avoid bleach. The Linen Trouser Shorts are lined; care the same way and check the inner lining label for any spot-specific guidance.
