Women's Slimline Short - 81% Merino Wool, Black

The shorts you'll wear under everything. Slip them on under a summer dress and walk all day without chafing. Wear them on their own for pilates, gardening or the morning walk. They're cut from soft, breathable merino, so you stay cool and comfortable even when your body runs hot.

The Slimline Short is made from superfine 18.5 micron merino with a touch of nylon for strength and elastane for stretch, so it keeps its shape wear after wear. At 180gsm it gives you coverage without bulk. The wide, soft waistband sits flat against your tummy with no rolling and no digging in.

Fit Notes

• Model wears a size Small

How to Measure

These are measurements of the shorts themselves, not your body. The easiest way to find your size is to grab a pair of stretchy shorts or leggings that fit you well, lay them flat on a table and compare.

• 1/2 Waist: Lay the shorts flat and measure straight across the top of the waistband, from one side to the other, without stretching it. Double this number for the full waist. The waistband stretches, so it will fit a waist bigger than this measurement.
• Front Rise: Measure from the bottom of the waistband at the front, down the centre seam to the crotch. This tells you how high they sit. A bigger number sits higher.
• Outside Leg Length: Measure down the outside of the leg from the bottom of the waistband to the hem. This tells you where they finish on your thigh.
• 1/2 Thigh: Lay the leg flat and measure straight across the widest part at the top of the leg, just below the crotch. Double it for the full thigh.
