Technical Shorts That Feel as Good as They Look

Most men have made peace with the idea that shorts are either comfortable or they look good. That tradeoff is what we wanted to fix here. Technical shorts have come a long way from the baggy nylon disasters of ten years ago, and the best ones now read as considered rather than athletic, without sacrificing any of the performance properties that make them worth wearing on a hot day, a long walk, or a flight you'd rather not think about. We've been looking specifically at cuts that sit at the right length, fabrics that don't wrinkle the moment you sit down, and waistbands that don't announce themselves through a shirt. Four way stretch and quick dry finishes are expected at this point. What separates the ones we've picked is that they also look like someone thought about the proportions. Worn with the right footwear and a decent shirt, these don't read as shorts at all. They just read as well dressed.
