Shorts 40 — denim shorts with heart patches
Light denim shorts pattern with embroidered heart-shaped patches and a folded hem, for casual summer shorts lines.
The shorts are high-rise, with an elastic panel and a button at the front, two front pockets and two back patch pockets, and several frayed heart-shaped patches spread across the front. The hem is folded with a visible hemline.
Work them in denim or stretch jean to keep the structure of the five pockets with a bit of extra comfort. They sell in casual summer shorts lines and pair with a basic white or solid-color t-shirt. Apply the heart patches before sewing the hem.
It comes in 8 sizes (XS to 4XL) with the industrial grading already done: pick the sizes you need on the product page, or buy the full size range in one go.
