Fit, Feel & Style

Designed with a contemporary relaxed fit that prioritizes comfort without sacrificing style, these cognac leather shorts feature a fully elasticized waistband that ensures a secure, customizable fit throughout the day. The supple full-grain leather construction moves naturally with your body while maintaining a clean, structured silhouette. Functional details include two front slash pockets, a zippered rear pocket for secure storage, and side zipper accents that add subtle utilitarian edge. The mid-thigh length creates balanced proportions that flatter most body types. The warm cognac colorway offers incredible versatility—style these shorts with crisp white tees and minimalist sneakers for clean summer looks, pair with chambray or linen shirts for elevated casual, or layer with earth-tone knits for transitional seasons. The rich tan hue complements navy, white, olive, burgundy, and denim beautifully, making these shorts a cornerstone piece for warm-weather wardrobes.

Size Guide

Our elasticized leather shorts feature a fully elastic waistband for flexible sizing. We recommend ordering your usual waist size—the elastic provides comfortable stretch, and the premium leather will mold to your body over the first few wears for a personalized fit. For detailed measurements including waist range, hip, rise, inseam, and thigh circumference, please refer to our size chart. If you prefer a looser, more relaxed fit, consider sizing up. Made-to-order customization available upon request.

Premium Material Quality

Crafted exclusively from full-grain leather—the highest quality leather available—these shorts showcase the natural grain, texture, and character marks that make each piece truly one-of-a-kind. Unlike corrected-grain or bonded leather, full-grain leather retains the hide's strongest fibers, ensuring exceptional durability and a rich patina that develops beautifully over time. The warm cognac finish reveals subtle variations in tone and natural markings, hallmarks of authentic artisan leather. Premium metal zippers are hand-installed for smooth operation and lasting durability. Fully lined with breathable cotton twill for comfort against skin, these shorts are built to last decades, not seasons. The leather's natural oils provide inherent water resistance while maintaining breathability, making them surprisingly comfortable even in warmer weather. Expect subtle variations in grain and tone—these are signs of genuine full-grain leather, not flaws. The cognac color will deepen and develop a beautiful honey-brown patina with wear and sun exposure.

Care Instructions

Cleaning: Wipe gently with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a leather-specific cleaner formulated for light-colored leather and follow with conditioning.
Storage: Hang in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent excessive darkening. Avoid plastic bags—leather needs to breathe.
Conditioning: Apply quality leather conditioner every 4-6 months to maintain suppleness and prevent drying. Use products designed for tan or light-colored leather. Spot-test first on an inconspicuous area.
Water exposure: If wet, pat dry immediately with a soft cloth and air-dry naturally away from heat. Never use direct heat sources like radiators or hair dryers.
Patina development: Cognac leather naturally darkens and develops a rich honey-brown patina with wear and sun exposure—this is normal and adds character to the piece.
