The cargo shorts that actually fit curves.

You know the feeling. You pull on cargo shorts and they gap at the back. Dig into your hips. Ride up your thighs.

These don't.

The stretch side-waistband flexes over fuller hips, hugs your waist, and stays put when you sit, walk, or bend. No gap. No pinch. Ready to wear right out of the bag.

It's the snatched-but-comfortable feeling curvy girls have been waiting for.

One of our most reordered summer shorts.

NO MORE GAP AT THE BACK
The stretch side-waistband flexes over wider hips so the waistband stays flat against your skin. No bending over and showing the world your business.

HUGS YOUR WAIST, MOVES WITH YOUR THIGHS
High-rise cut snatches your middle while soft stretch fabric glides over thicker thighs. Sit, squat, walk — it moves with you, not against you.

THE FABRIC LOOKS EXPENSIVE, FEELS SOFT
Smooth polyester blend with a clean drape. Holds its shape all day, doesn't wrinkle in the car, and the elastic detail is hidden on the sides — so it reads sexy-casual, never sporty.

PAIRS WITH EVERYTHING IN YOUR CLOSET
Crop top and sneakers for brunch. Strappy bodysuit and sandals for date night. Throw on a tee for errands. Three colors, endless outfits.

Frequently asked questions

Are these see-through in lighter colors?
No — the khaki and black are fully opaque. The olive green has a slightly lighter weave but still passes the bend-over test in normal daylight.

How short is the inseam?
The inseam runs about 2.2"–3" depending on size. They sit mid-thigh on most curvy bodies — not too short, not too long.

Do they shrink in the wash?
No noticeable shrinkage when washed cold and hung to dry. The stretch waistband holds its shape wash after wash.

Will they work for a pear shape with smaller waist and bigger hips?
Yes — this is exactly the body type they're designed for. Size based on your hip measurement and the waistband will flex to fit.

Size Chart (Inches)

If you're between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger one.

Size US Waist Hip Inseam
XS 2 24.5 37 2
S 4 26 38.5 2.5
M 6 27.5 40 2.5
L 8/10 30 42.5 3

Do these run true to size? They fit true to size for most. If you're between sizes or prefer a more relaxed fit, we suggest sizing up one.

Can I wear this to the office? Yes. Styled with the right pieces, it reads polished and professional while keeping the silhouette clean.

Will the fabric fade after washing? The fabric is pre-washed to soften the feel and minimize fading. Wash cold and hang dry to keep the color rich.

Wrong size? Displeased? No problem! If for any reason you are not satisfied with the product, we offer a 60 day return policy.

To minimize our carbon footprint, we don't keep all our products in stock. Instead, we make them on demand, which may result in slightly longer delivery times. This approach lets us offer better prices, benefits the environment, and helps avoid unnecessary waste. Once your payment is confirmed, we'll begin processing your order right away — it typically takes 1–3 business days to prepare and ship. After dispatch, you'll receive a confirmation email with a tracking number, and you can follow your order anytime on the Track Your Order page. On average, you'll receive your order within 3–8 working days after dispatch.
