01 · Flare Shorts: The Graffiti Print That Catches the Eye
We start the casting strong. The Flare Shorts feature a graffiti print placed on the lower leg, designed to catch the eye at first glance.
The cut remains straight, the length above the knee. The pattern does all the work, the silhouette stays clean.
Radiant, The Color That Pops
Second name selected, second style. The Radiant Shorts play on sharp contrast, colored panels on a light base, for a piece that stands out without overdoing it.
These are the shorts that wake up a white t-shirt and a pair of basic sneakers. Effective, immediate, €27.99.
Why the Chino Changes Everything This Summer?
Because it takes shorts from casual mode to dressed-up mode. The Hustle Chino Shorts rely on a woven fabric and a clean cut, comparable to dress pants.
It's the summer wardrobe piece that ticks the elegance box without sacrificing comfort. One black pair, and you're set from morning to night.
04 · Active Twilight: Comfort That Lasts All Day
The Active Twilight Shorts come from the sports world, and it shows. Soft fabric, elastic waistband, freedom of movement: they are made to move.
For us, these are the shorts you put on for a city trip or a day without a plan. Comfort first, style second, and it doesn't compromise on either.

06 · Flower Shorts: Floral Goes Masculine
Floral is no longer reserved for women's wardrobes. The Flower Shorts bring it to men's side with a bold all-over pattern and a loose cut.
This is the statement piece of the selection: the one that stands out, the one that makes the look on its own.
Flora, Softness in Relief
We switch to the women's side. The Flora Shorts trade the flat print for a floral textured relief, in an ivory tone that softens the entire silhouette.
The cut is wide, the finishes refined. Shorts that speak fashion without raising the tone, at €24.99.
08 · Slowly: The Essential You Put On Without Thinking
Some pieces don't seek effect. The Slowly Shorts rely on simplicity: a clean cut, a soft pink, a drape that goes with everything.
These are the shorts you pair with any top, season after season. The safe bet of the women's wardrobe.
Broken Heart, Your Signature Piece?
If you had to keep only one, it might be this one. The Broken Heart Shorts rely on an embroidered detail rather than an accumulation of patterns.
A sewn heart, a predominantly cotton fabric, a gray that goes with everything. Discretion that hits the mark.
10 · Denim Cloudy: The Strong Piece That Closes the Season
We end the casting on the rising star of summer: denim. The Cloudy Denim Shorts play a light wash and a structured cut, in a fabric that transcends trends.
It's the investment of the selection, at €59.99. The one you keep well beyond the season.
