There is honestly nothing like a pair of denim shorts. They are an iconic part of summer fashion. They are a natural go-to whether you’re heading to the beach, a festival, or just running errands. Denim shorts are chic yet casual and that is why they are a style staple.
Denim shorts have a long history and can be traced back to humble beginnings as durable workwear. Over time, denim became more of a fashion statement in the form of pants, so it was only a matter of time before shorts followed suit. Jorts became popular in the 1960s and 1970s are more and more people began cutting their jeans into shorts with the rise of the counterculture movement. What started as a DIY trend birthed out of the desire for casual, comfortable clothing grew into a trend that exploded in the 1980s when denim shorts began being produced and sold by major fashion brands.
Over the decades, denim shorts have evolved with various styles emerging to meet the fashion tastes of individuals and the times. From high-waisted and distressed in the 1980s to the short, low rise styles of the early 2000s, shorts continue to be a canvas for self expression with countless variations available to this day.
