The Scout Short in Burnt Olive Ripstop

About this find

The Scout Short in Burnt Olive Ripstop from Taylor Stitch is made from an 8.5-oz. fabric that blends 97% organic cotton with 3% spandex. The pigment dyed and stone washed finish gives it a soft, lived-in look and feel. Two front slash pockets are good for keys, a phone, or a wallet, and two back patch cargo pockets with snap flap closures give you room for a few larger items. The lining is 6-oz. 100% organic cotton SF map pocketing.

The cargo pockets are not pleated, so they lie flat and keep the shorts looking streamlined. A YKK zip fly with a snap closure at the waistband keeps the front secure, and double-needle felled construction gives the seams a neat, sturdy finish. Pair them with a plain cotton tee and a relaxed jacket for an easy weekend look, or wear them with a lightweight henley and simple casual shoes for a laid-back day out.

For care, wash in cold water and tumble dry on low. These shorts are made in China. The burnt olive color works well with neutral layers in cream, white, and navy.
