For Her: Mom, Boyfriend & Short Shorts

Stick to the classics with women’s shorts made in soft denim or lightweight twill, branch out in updated takes on old faves, or go for something totally new in a fit you’ve never tried.

Laid-back shorts are here to stay, and so is the Mom short. Show Mom you learned from the best with this comfy high-rise short in tons of summer-ready washes and fits like Curvy and highest waist. Wear Mom Shorts with a tube top or tank top for an outfit that will become your new warm weather go-to.

’90s Boyfriend Shorts

As comfy as they are cute, ‘90s Boyfriend shorts have that juuust right cool, slouchy fit. Bring the throwback vibes to your next outfit with a ripped & repaired pair with a Tiny Top made for layering.

Short Shorts

They’re a classic for a reason. With a legs-for-days vibe, short shorts are the summer staple you won’t want to take off. Get them in low-rise, high-waisted, and Curvy fits, and in Ne(x)t Level and Super Stretch denim for the ultimate in comfort.
