Soft, retro, and completely relaxed in the Trails Corduroy Short
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I grabbed the Trails Corduroy Short on a whim and they ended up being one of my most-reached-for pieces all season. The 21 wale cord has this soft, refined texture that photographs beautifully and feels even better in person, and the split side seam hem gives them a subtle retro detail that sets them apart from anything else in my rotation."
The Trails Corduroy Short from Katin pulls directly from a 70s archival design, channeling the era when corduroy was the fabric of choice for anyone who wanted texture, character, and a relaxed sensibility all in one piece. The 21 wale construction keeps the cord fine and soft rather than heavy or stiff, delivering a tactile depth that makes the Trails Corduroy Short stand out in a sea of plain casual shorts without working too hard to get there.
The fixed front waist and elastic back panel strike a balance between structure and comfort that holds up through long days of wear, while the zip fly and clean-finished interior seams bring a level of construction quality that you feel every time you put them on. Front patch pockets and back welt pockets handle the essentials, and the split side seam hem adds a finishing touch that ties the whole retro-inspired story together at 18 inches.
