COVERCHORD FEATURE

Six styles to emulate this summer
MEN’S SHORTS SELECTION

COVERCHORD picks 6 pairs of shorts to see you through the summer months

Shorts come in all forms, with different materials, colors and silhouettes to consider.

Designed to keep you comfortable in warmer weather, they’re inherently informal so there’s a fine line between looking casual and unkempt.

What you wear them with can make all the difference.

We round up the best shorts styles for any occasion this summer.

When it’s too hot to pull on a pair of jeans, try these denim painter-inspired shorts by nonnative. Worn here with an oversized linen shirt for a breezy summer style.

These collaborative shorts by nonnative x halfTen are made from water-repellant, moisture-wicking material, perfect for outdoor activities.
Add a lightweight, low-gauge knit for a more street-ready look.
 

Made from high density supima cotton and sporting a double pleat, these chino-style shorts by A.PRESSE are balanced out with a short sleeve tee and boots.
 

For a more casual look, pair the patterned NEEDLES basketball shorts with beach sandals.
The check shirt by Phigvel offsets the sporty aesthetic.

These baggy shorts from DAIWA PIER39 are constructed using a technical lightweight polyester with a dry handfeel similar to linen or hemp.
Worn here with an oversized shirt of the same fabric and suede boat shoes by new footwear brand SABOR, for a smart casual set up.
 

Made from a lightweight water-repellant fabric akin to swimming trunks, these versatile shorts by KAPTAIN SUNSHINE can be easily dressed up or down.
Seen here with a chambray shirt by Comoli.
