Denim Tears University Shorts Red

Red carries the most visual weight of any colour here, so keep the rest of the fit simple. The University line borrows American collegiate language, arched lettering and varsity colour pairings. Putting that against a motif about American cotton is not an accident. Fleece sweat shorts with the wreath on the leg, cut relaxed with an elasticated drawcord waist. Tremaine Emory ran Supreme as creative director while building this label, which is part of why it carries the weight it does.

Fit. True to size, sitting mid-thigh to just above the knee depending on your height. These are not cut oversized, so sizing up gains length rather than a baggier leg.

Styling. A plain tee against a printed short reads better than the wreath appearing twice.

Care. Wash inside out at 30 degrees with similar shades. Bright colours release dye early, so wash the pink and red pairs separately for the first two cycles. Air dry rather than tumble.
