Shorts Fabrics

Shorts are so-called "shorts" because they are the abridged cousins of trousers, covering both legs but cropped higher up, usually somewhere above the knees. They are typically worn in warmer weather or on occasions where comfort and airflow are more important than the warmth or protection of the legs. There are a variety of shorts, ranging from baggier creations like Bermuda shorts to slimmer, more close-fitting ones like short shorts.
