Denim Blue / S Low Stock

A high-waist denim short in 95% cotton with 5% spandex, washed to a medium blue with visible whisker fading at the front thighs and heavy distressing through the body panels and hem. The raw hem carries a significant fray across the full cut width - the distressing at the hem is deep enough to expose weft threads along the lower edge. Button-and-zip closure at the high waist with side pockets (image-inferred) for a clean, functional layout. Available in Denim Blue in sizes S through 2XL.

Material: 95% Cotton, 5% Spandex - genuine denim weight with slight stretch for ease of movement
Distressing: Heavy abrasion through the body panels with whisker fading at both front thighs
Raw Hem: Thoroughly frayed raw hem across the full cut width - significant fray with weft thread exposure along the lower edge
Wash: Medium blue with acid-wash variation - deeper than a light wash but not a full dark indigo
High Waist: Sits at the natural waist - structured waistband that holds its shape through the day
Stretch: Slightly stretchy - enough give through the seat without distorting the waistband shape
Care: Machine wash cold, tumble dry low

Material Composition

This short is 95% cotton with 5% spandex. The cotton concentration provides the weight, texture, and structural integrity typical of traditional denim - it gives the fabric its substance and ensures the waistband holds its shape through extended wear without sagging or rolling. The 5% spandex introduces a controlled stretch that eases movement through the seat and thigh without compromising the overall fit structure. At this fiber ratio, the cotton's properties dominate entirely: the fabric behaves as denim, with the spandex most noticeable at points of movement rather than in the overall hand of the material. The medium-blue wash with acid-wash variation gives the surface its depth and uneven finish.

Construction Details

High-waist cut with button-and-zip fly closure and belt loops (image-inferred). Standard 5-pocket construction with side slash pockets and back pockets (image-inferred). The primary construction feature is the distress work - heavy abrasion runs through the body panels with whisker fading extending diagonally from the front rise across both thighs. The raw hem carries a substantial fray across the full cut width, with distress deep enough to expose the weft threads along the lower edge. The medium-blue wash with acid-wash variation reads slightly darker than a classic light wash.

Fabric Behavior

Care Instructions

Machine wash cold. Tumble dry low. Cold washing preserves the medium-blue wash depth and prevents premature fading. Low-heat drying protects the spandex content over repeated wash cycles - high heat degrades spandex elasticity over time, which can result in the waistband losing its structure and recovery.
