E-Waist Shorts

Trend report: the e-waist (elastic waistband) is the latest option in shorts that every guy will want for ultimate comfort and style. You’ll be seeing the e-waist trend both in boardshorts and active shorts.

Sizing: Just keep in mind the stretch from the elastic waistband when choosing from x-small to xx-large sizes. E-waist shorts also typically come in a shorter above-the-knee length. This is how they’re meant to fit, and it’s a look that sets them apart from other shorts.

Favorite Feature: The fun novelty prints covering everything from palm trees and flamingos, to pineapples, hotdogs, and sharks. Your go-to brands for the e-waist trend will be Departwest, Brooklyn Cloth, and Valor.
