Black Prince of Wales cotton balloon shorts

The balloon short is the revisited, shorter version of the circular pant. Its loose balloon cut is accentuated by triple pleats, creating volume and a unique drape. The front and back pockets, accessible from the side, are inspired by Japanese hakama pants, bringing a functional and cultural dimension to the design. Designed to adapt to different body types, these shorts feature an adjustable waistband, inspired by Gurkha military systems, a side hook system, and an elasticated back, allowing for precise and evolving adjustment (waist adjustable from XS-XXL). Unlined for a looser, deconstructed look, these balloon shorts are a strong piece, at the crossroads of Japanese fashion and contemporary utilitarian wear. Made from a black cotton fabric with a tone-on-tone Prince of Wales check pattern, these shorts combine lightness and durability, ideal for a bold summer silhouette.
