Description

The perfect denim shorts for little adventurers. Made in our soft, lightweight denim with an elasticated waist and a relaxed fit, they’re comfortable, easy to wear, and made to last. Roll the legs up or down for different looks that adapt as your little one grows, making them a versatile wardrobe staple.  We love them paired with The Oversized Tee and Chunky Sweater.

Note: This style is designed to sit at the mid to high waist. For our smallest explorers (12 months to 3 years), we suggest sizing up for extra comfort around the waist.

Our small-batch wash process means that each of our denim garments will vary slightly in colour and appearance.

• Composition: 100% organic cotton denim, with encased elastic waistband (contains elastane)
• Available in: LIGHT DENIM, UNDYED
• Made in India by our GOTS-certified partners

    The Denim Short Every Boy or Girl Needs 🌊

    These little denim shorts are the perfect mix of classic and comfy for my boys. Unlike stiff denim, The Simple Folk made these soft, lightweight, and easy to move in perfect for climbing, running, and all the everyday adventures of childhood.

    I love that they have that timeless, vintage feel while still being so practical. They pair effortlessly with tees, button-downs, or even a cozy sweatshirt for cooler evenings. Durable enough for play, but stylish enough for outings these really are a staple in their wardrobe.

    The kind of piece that only gets better with time. 🤍

    The best shorts!

    Big fan of these shorts for my kids - gender neutral, can be dressed up or down. Made of hearty denim that can withstand playing but still comfortable for kids. We find these tts and can usually get away with rolling the legs for a shorter look if needed!

    So comfy and durable!

    My daughter literally wants to wear these every day (and often does over her leggings since it’s still cold here in Jllinois :) These shorts are so comfy because of the elastic waist but also a thick, durable material. My daughter has worn them outside constantly since she got them and they have held up extremely well and have washed well, too. The length is also great! A lot of shorts for girls are very short but these are a good length even when cuffed. Thrilled my son will also probably be able to wear them un-cuffed when he reaches the age she is now, too. I’ve been recommending these shorts to everyone who comments on them!

    Obsessed with these

    Love these shorts, and the fact they can be worn rolled up or down. Will get a lot of use this summer!

    Size up

    Lovely soft denim (definitely look better with the cuffs rolled up). Size up for a more comfortable fit on the waist. Eagerly waiting for a restock for summer.
