Essential Drawstring Short (6.5")

About this find

The Essential Drawstring Short (6.5") from Faherty is made for chilling out and kicking back, yet it can still look as dressy as you need it to. It is an all-purpose short, part tailored and part lounge, so one pair can cover a slow morning at home and a more put-together afternoon out.

The fabric is a cotton linen blend based on the one used in Faherty's bestselling Stretch Terry 5-Pocket Pants. It is super soft, with perfect stretch, and it adds a little extra breathability and comfort for warm, sunny days. That soft, stretchy blend gives the short plenty of room to move whether you are sitting or on your feet.

The 6.5-inch length keeps the short on the shorter side, which suits hot afternoons and long stretches in the sun. The drawstring gives it a relaxed, lounge-ready look, while the tailored half of the design keeps the overall shape clean. Together, those details make it easy to wear from a lazy morning into a nicer plan later.

For a relaxed weekend look, try a plain cotton tee and sandals. Tumble dry low and remove promptly when the cycle ends. The Essential Short is built around comfort, so it makes sense for travel days, backyard gatherings, or any warm day when you want to feel at ease without looking sloppy.
