Chiaro Cabana Shorts – Ultramarin

The waffle knit texture is what sold me—it’s got that nice, subtle ribbed feel that looks way more expensive than these shorts should be. They’ve held their shape after a few washes, and the elastic waistband keeps them comfy without digging in.

The drawstring waistband sits flat and doesn’t dig in, which is rare for shorts like these. I’ve already worn them three times this week—the waffle knit keeps its shape, and the ultramarine color looks even better in person.

The waffle knit really does it for me—it's got this subtle texture that makes them feel more put-together than your average shorts, but they're still plenty soft for lounging. Fit is relaxed without being sloppy, and the drawstring keeps them right where I want them all day.
