Best Shorts From Madewell

Madewell Has So Many Cute Shorts, We Can’t Possibly Wait Till Summer to Wear Them

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

For casual-yet-polished vibes this season, it's time to slip out of your cosy loungewear and into shorts and a tee from Madewell. Whether you want something relaxed or snug, there's a pair here for you. (And, yes, there are comfy sweatshorts if you're not yet ready to give up elastic waists.)

Of course, our list wouldn't be complete without curvy and regular denim choices, and several already feature the same fit as your favourite jeans, but in shorter — and cooler — form for when things heat up outside. Check out our picks ahead . . . and you just may keep these shorts on all the way 'til fall, too.

The tencel fabric inside these Madewell High-Rise Denim Shorts in Danny Wash: Tencel Denim Edition ($75) give the shorts both structure and stretch, but we especially love that the bottoms are long enough to be cuffed once (or twice), or can be pulled down long as they aren't sewn shut.
