Regular Fit Shorts

Regular fit shorts that sit right - not too tight, not swimming in fabric. We carry styles from Empyre and Cookies/a> in cotton blend, nylon, and polyester, with graphics ranging from clean logos to full skeleton and cybersigilism inspired prints. Black, blue, grey and more colorways across the lineup. Shorts built for the skatepark, the street, or just not looking like everyone else.

How should regular fit shorts fit?
Regular fit shorts should sit at your natural waist or just below it, with enough room in the thigh to move freely without bunching up. Think relaxed but not sloppy - you can crouch, kick, or skate without anything pulling. Brands like Ninth Hall and Empyre cut their regular fits with this in mind, so sizing to your actual waist measurement usually gets you there.
Can regular shorts be worn baggy?
Yeah, sizing up gives you a baggier look without going full wide-leg. A regular fit in a cotton blend or nylon has enough structure to hold its shape even when worn loose. Cookies and Affliction styles especially work well sized up if you want that relaxed streetwear silhouette.
How do I pick what style of shorts is best for me?
Start with how you're wearing them- skating, hanging out, or going out. If you're skating, a polyester or nylon short moves better and holds up longer. If you're going for a streetwear look, cotton blend styles with bold graphics or cybersigilism prints from brands like Ninth Hall or A.LAB tend to read heavier and more graphic-forward.
