Minoti's khaki shorts are cut in cotton twill with a high paperbag waist that gathers at the front and is elasticated across the back. Khaki sits between casual and put-together, so they work at the school gate as well as the weekend. The elastic gives enough to sit at a picnic bench without the button pulling. Cotton twill holds the relaxed straight-leg shape rather than going limp in the heat, and the raw frayed hem is a deliberate finish. Side pockets on both hips add everyday usefulness.
