Shorts
The verdict
Linen shorts at $44 are a fair summer option if you accept linen's wrinkled, lived-in look as part of the appeal.
Fit
High rise linen typically drapes loosely — good for heat and airflow, less precise on the body. May have a straighter, less tapered leg than denim.
Quality
Mavi linen-blend shorts at this price are basics-grade; linen wrinkles naturally and may relax in the waist over time.
Is the price fair?
Budget-priced for linen content. True linen cribs are often $60+ elsewhere, so this represents reasonable value for the material.
Best for
Warm-weather versatility, especially travel and casual errands where wrinkles and relaxation are acceptable.
Care
Wash in cool water and hang dry or air dry flat; line drying keeps linen softer than machine drying.
