Nautica 8.5-Inch Deck Short
Eight and a half inches, flat front, proper cotton. The short that reads as a club rather than a beach.
Our rating
4.6 out of 5
Nautica have quietly got the length right where most brands are an inch out in one direction or the other, and the flat front stops it reading as swimwear. Proper cotton with enough weight to hang. Sizing runs true, which is unusual enough in shorts to be worth saying.
