Attribute deep dive
We break down what drove each score so you can weigh trade-offs.
Quality Analysis 70/100
These denim shorts, crafted from a mid-weight cotton blend with 2% elastane, offer a comfortable, non-stretchy fit. The use of denim, a generally robust fabric, suggests good everyday wear, though specific seam construction isn't mentioned.
Comfort Assessment 60/100
These shorts are made from a mid-weight, non-stretchy denim, which might feel a bit rigid. While they contain 2% elastane, the description explicitly states "non-stretchy fabric," suggesting it doesn't contribute to comfort.
Sustainability Impact 70/100
This garment lacks specific sustainability clues such as organic, recycled, or fair-trade certifications, so we're starting with a neutral score.

Editor's Notes: Paisleys have been passed down the silk road for thousands of years, woven into scarves, shawls and tapestries alike. Inspired by the styles of Asia and the Middle East, Etro founder Gimmo made them a mainstay of his collections back in the late '60s. A fine example of its fan-favourite pattern, these shorts are made from denim jacquard-woven with motifs of different shapes and sizes.
