Why We Like It

Why it keeps winding up in carts

No sales data yet, so we're watching this one closely—but the construction signals quality: lined, lightweight non-stretch weave, real pocket detail.

High-waisted gingham that actually breathes.

Our Take

A considered beach-to-brunch piece that doesn't try too hard.

These shorts sit high (11.75" rise) with an intentionally short, airy 3.25" inseam—a silhouette choice, not a compromise.

At $88, you're paying for design intention and BLANKNYC's construction standards—reasonable for a statement piece, not an everyday workhorse.

Who it is forYou if you love high-waisted silhouettes, gingham, and shorts that double as a mood. Ideal for vacation or someone who values fit precision over trends.

The Buying Guide

What to check before you buy

Rise & Length

11.75" rise, 3.25" inseam

This is a genuine high-waisted, very short proportion—the kind that pairs with a tucked tee or worn open over a swimsuit. Not a mid-rise compromise; it's intentional.

Fabric & Construction

Lightweight, non-stretch weave; lined; gingham print

The non-stretch fabric has structure (it won't cling or sag), and the lining means you can move freely without worry. Gingham reads vintage but the clean print keeps it current.
