14 Summer Shorts That Aren’t Tiny Denim Cutoffs

Let’s give a warm welcome back to the Bermuda short

It may seem like spring just got here, but summer is already around the corner. With Memorial Day just weeks away, it’s time to get our hot- (and sometimes sweltering-) weather wardrobes in check.

With that said, it looks like this year, we’ll be bringing back the Bermuda short. Did you just cringe a little? It’s okay—we promise it’s going to be fine.

We saw the slightly above-the-knee silhouette on the spring runways of labels like Off-White, Tibi, and No. 21, so rest assured these are nothing like the frumpy silhouettes of the past. Sometimes fitted, sometimes flowy, we’re seeing everything from denim to printed silk on the Bermuda shorts front this season. And yes, they’re actually really cute.

Plus, we’re ready to give our bum-bearing denim cutoffs a rest. Check out the 14 pairs of Bermuda shorts we’ll be wearing all summer long, below.
