• Fit: Regular short cut
• Closure: Single front zip with a button waist
• Color: Black
• Care: Dry cloth, condition once a year, hang rather than fold

Why plain outlasts detailed

Hardware and detailing carry a date stamp. Twin zips, side lacing, cargo pockets and stud work all belong to a particular moment, and in five years they read as that moment. A plain black leather short with a single fly does not, for the same reason a plain white shirt does not. If you are buying one pair rather than several, the plain one is the pair you will still be wearing when the others feel dated.

It also goes with more

With no detailing to work around, these pair with anything you would wear with black jeans — plain T-shirts, shirts, knitwear, any footwear. Detailed shorts need the rest of the outfit to stay out of their way; plain ones do not.

What to check on a plain garment

With nothing to distract the eye, construction is all there is. Look at whether the stitch length is consistent along the seams, whether the seams lie flat, whether the fly sits closed without gaping, and whether the waistband is even in width all the way round. A plain garment is the honest test of a maker, which is why plain black is harder to make well than a busy design.

Sheepskin

Light and soft, so the shorts move with the leg rather than stiffening at the thigh. Less abrasion-resistant than cowhide; clothing rather than workwear.

Stated plainly: a fashion garment, not protective equipment.

Sizing and made to order
