Denim Shorts

Five distinct silhouettes across stretch and rigid denim. The Bella Stretch Vintage Shorts are high-rise comfort-stretch denim with classic jean details. The Bella Stretch Patch Pocket Shorts add a utility-inspired patch pocket on the front for a fresh take on the everyday short. The Bella Rigid Cut Off Shorts use non-stretch cotton denim with a frayed hem for a vintage-inspired lived-in feel. The Maya Rigid Bermuda Shorts are low-slung, non-stretch, with a longer Bermuda length for a more relaxed, easygoing look. The 100% Organic Denim Shortalls are a shortalls (overalls + shorts) silhouette in sturdy non-stretch denim with adjustable straps.

A Bermuda short hits longer — typically just above or at the knee — for a more polished, relaxed look. Quince's Maya Rigid Bermuda Shorts are low-slung non-stretch denim with this longer length. A cut-off short hits much shorter — typically mid-thigh — with a raw, often frayed hem for a vintage casual feel. Quince's Bella Rigid Cut Off Shorts are this style. Pick by length preference and how dressed-down you want the look to read.

The Bella Stretch shorts (Vintage, Patch Pocket) use comfort-stretch denim — flexible fit, soft hand-feel, more forgiving on body changes through the day. The rigid options (Bella Rigid Cut Off, Maya Rigid Bermuda, 100% Organic Denim Shortalls) use non-stretch cotton denim — firmer hand-feel, more vintage character, more pronounced fade pattern over time. Choose stretch for everyday comfort; choose rigid for a more vintage-denim feel that softens with wear.

Most run true to size. The Bella Stretch styles (Vintage, Patch Pocket) are high-rise with comfort stretch — sit at the natural waist, give through the body. The Bella Rigid Cut Off is non-stretch and fitted; runs true on the waist. The Maya Rigid Bermuda is intentionally low-slung — sits below the belly button — with a longer Bermuda inseam. The 100% Organic Denim Shortalls have adjustable shoulder straps for fit customization, with a relaxed body fit through the hip.

For the Bella Stretch (Vintage, Patch Pocket) shorts: machine wash cold inside-out on a gentle cycle, tumble dry low or hang dry, to preserve color and stretch. For the rigid denim (Bella Rigid Cut Off, Maya Rigid Bermuda, Organic Shortalls): machine wash cold, hang dry. Non-stretch denim holds its shape more consistently between washes and develops a more pronounced fade pattern over time — vintage character that improves with wear.
