Our Style, Fit & Sizing Recommendations

• These shorts feature a loose fit and a low crotch, offering a significantly roomier cut than standard denim shorts.
• The heavyweight denim provides a structured, "heavy" drape that holds its boxy shape exceptionally well.
• The stone-dyed Cozy Purple offers a muted, sophisticated pop of colour that coordinates easily with neutral tones.
• Here at the store we recommend taking your usual size to benefit from the intended baggy and comfortable profile.

Washing & Care Instructions

• Machine wash at up to 40°C with similar dark colours to preserve the stone-dyed Cozy Purple tones.
• Hang the shorts to dry naturally to maintain the heavyweight denim fibres and prevent potential shrinkage.
• Tumble dry at a maximum of 60°C if necessary, though air-drying is recommended for maximum garment longevity.
• Iron at temperatures up to 200°C to restore the clean finish of the denim after washing.
• Wash the garment inside out to protect the stone-dyed surface and the woven Square Label from abrasion.

Our Brandon Shorts FAQs

1. What is "stone-dyed" denim?
   It is a process that dyes the garment and then washes it with stones to create a faded, worn-in look with subtle highlights along the seams.

2. How does the "low crotch" affect the fit?
   It provides more room in the seat and a dropped appearance, contributing to the overall loose and baggy aesthetic.

3. Is the purple very bright?
   No, the stone-dyeing process gives "Cozy Purple" a washed-out, dusty quality that makes it very wearable and easy to style.

4. Is this denim stiffer than the Flint shorts?
   Yes, as a 100% cotton heavyweight denim, it offers more structure and a "crisper" feel compared to the softer Moraga twill used on the Flint.
