Description
Sold out multiple times and finally back in stock, the Hakama Shorts in indigo denim are a cult favourite for a reason. Inspired by traditional Japanese silhouettes, these shorts feature a relaxed wide-leg fit with a flattering drape that moves effortlessly. Designed with comfort and versatility in mind, they’re finished with side and back pockets, a button fly, and an elasticated waistband for an easy, everyday fit.
Sizing runs generous - we recommend going down one size if you’re between sizes or at the upper end of the range.
