It's all in the name

The leg-baring version of the beloved Effortless Pant, these are high-rise shorts with front pleats, slash hand pockets and back welt pockets. They're made with (Re)ssential — softly structured stretch fabric that holds its form while you move easy. It’s sourced from a premier Portuguese mill and made with recycled materials and LENZING™ ECOVERO™ Viscose — responsibly sourced, wood-based fibres produced through a process that reduces impact on forests, biodiversity and water supply. The fit has been perfected season after season for a just-right feel.

I love this shorts!
I am normally a size 6, but I got the size 8 on this as it fits slightly smaller. All in all, I love the colour, fit plus I got it on sale!

Fit small
I wanted to love these. If you have the effortless pants, size up in the shorts. I didn’t end up exchanging bc they were sold out.

Looks good and fits well for my body type (hourglass). Would size up - I wear a 0 in effortless pants and 2 here. Fabric has a bit of stretch
