The Denim Short That Works Harder

The Stripe Raw Edge Drawstring Denim Shorts are a summer wardrobe essential — black and white stripe detailing meets a raw, frayed hem and a practical drawstring waist for a look that balances casual cool with genuine versatility. The elastic waist makes these the most comfortable denim shorts you'll own.

Why You'll Love It

  • Stripe contrast design — bold black and white stripe detailing gives these denim shorts a fashion-forward edge
  • Raw edge hem — the deliberately frayed hem adds a relaxed, lived-in character that pairs with everything
  • Drawstring waist — adjustable for the perfect fit; combines with an elastic waist for all-day comfort
  • High-waist cut — sits at the natural waist to elongate the legs and define the silhouette
  • Lightweight denim — structured enough to look polished, comfortable enough for all-day wear
  • Easy wash-and-wear — made to withstand regular washing while retaining shape and colour
  • Versatile styling — equally at home on the beach, at a festival, or on a summer city break

Fabric & Care

Made from a lightweight denim blend with moderate stretch. Machine wash at 30°C. Turn inside out to preserve the stripe and raw hem detailing. Hang to dry or tumble dry on low.

How to Style

Vogue UK recommends pairing raw-hem denim shorts with a simple tucked-in tee and a barely-there sandal for the most effortless summer look. Who What Wear UK loves the stripe-on-denim contrast for adding visual interest to a minimal outfit. Shop more in our shorts edit or explore new arrivals.

Three outfit formulas:

  1. Stripe raw edge denim shorts + white crop tee + white trainers + bucket hat — effortless beach day
  2. Denim shorts + black cami + strappy sandals + mini crossbody — smart casual evening
  3. Stripe denim shorts + white linen shirt + espadrilles + straw tote — holiday city break

Frequently Asked Questions

Are these true to size?

Yes, they run true to UK sizing. The drawstring waist allows for adjustable fit. If between sizes, size down for a snug fit or size up for comfort.

Is the raw hem intentional?

Yes — the frayed hem is a deliberate design detail, not a flaw. It gives the shorts a relaxed, summer-ready character.

How high is the waist?

These are a high-waist short, sitting at the natural waist. The drawstring allows you to adjust the fit for your body.

How do I care for these?

Machine wash at 30°C inside out. Hang to dry or tumble dry on low. The raw hem may fray slightly more with washing — this only adds to the character.
