London-based label Garbstore introduces a new set of limited Home Party Shorts, which are premium Japanese sets of shorts. The design focuses on comfort above all else, as every single pair is made to be soft and roomy. Every pair comes with a drawstring so that wearers can adjust the fit to their own desire.
It embodies a loose fit and is reinforced with the removal of the frontal fastening section. The inspiration behind the design nods to old workwear slacks and shorts that have dual double-bagged pockets. There is also a hidden internal stash pouch at the back of the shorts and complete with the branded drawcord toggles. The shorts also option different fabric options from linen, to Cordura, to cotton.
