Men's Solid Shorts

Solid shorts are the everyday cut — flat colour, no pattern, pair-with-anything versatility. The Basics solid shorts range comes in Comfort Fit across 12 colour families, with black, navy, grey, olive, brown, and beige as the foundation rotation. Fabric is 100% cotton or cotton-stretch with side pockets, one back welt pocket, and an elasticated comfort waistband with drawstring. Length sits just above the knee — the most versatile length, working for casual wear, lounging, travel, and light activity. Plain shorts read as foundational and versatile. Pair them with patterned trousers or contrast accessories. Formality: works across formal and casual contexts. Care: standard wash per fabric. For most buyers, plain shorts land in the middle of the casual-to-smart-casual spectrum, suiting both office days where pattern is welcome and weekend wear where personality matters more than restraint. Selection tip: pair a stronger plain short with the most neutral piece in the rest of the outfit — let the pattern be the single voice, not one of many. In the Basics range, plain shorts are available across the major colour families and core fits, so you can match the design language to the body cut that already works for you.

Frequently Asked Questions about Shorts

Which solid shorts colours are most versatile?
Start with navy, black, and olive — these three pair with almost any t-shirt or shirt and read as clean casual rather than gym wear. Beige and grey add summer-friendly neutrality. After four or five neutrals, add accent colours (brick, mustard) for variety. A common mistake is buying multiple shorts in similar shades — one of each foundation colour gives full rotation without overlap. Replace as fabric wears; shorts get more daily use than most other pieces.
How do I pair plain shorts?

Are plain shorts office-appropriate?

How do I care for plain shorts?
standard wash per fabric. Always follow the fabric-specific care label printed on the garment.
