Shorts and Bermuda

Shorts and Bermuda shorts differ mainly in length and occasion of use. Shorts are generally shorter, ending above the knee, ideal for sporting situations or very hot days. Bermuda shorts, on the other hand, have a length that extends to the knee or slightly below, being more versatile and suitable for semi-formal environments. At RAG Tailors, we offer both options in a variety of fabrics, such as denim, chino and cotton, allowing you to choose the style that best suits your needs and context of use.

For a casual work environment, chino or linen shorts are the best choice. These styles offer the perfect balance between comfort and professional appearance. At RAG Tailors, our chino shorts are available in neutral colours such as navy, beige and black, making them easy to pair with shirts or polo shirts. We recommend opting for straight-cut, knee-length styles with understated finishes. Shorts in lightweight cotton or technical blends also work well in offices with a more relaxed dress code, especially during the warmer months.

To choose the right size when shopping online, start by measuring your waist, hips and inseam length. Compare these measurements with the size chart available on our website. At RAG Tailors, we provide detailed guides for each model, indicating the type of fit (regular, slim or relaxed). Keep in mind that fabrics such as denim may shrink slightly after the first wash, while materials with elastane offer greater flexibility. If you are between sizes, we recommend opting for the larger size for work shorts and the smaller size for sports shorts, thus ensuring adequate comfort and aesthetics.

The best fabrics for sports shorts combine durability, breathability and flexibility. At RAG Tailors, we use technical polyester with quick-drying technology for our sports shorts, ideal for intense activities. For gym workouts, we recommend styles with elastane blends, which provide greater elasticity and freedom of movement. We also offer options in antibacterial fabrics that reduce odours and microbial growth, perfect for prolonged use. Some of our premium styles include UV protection and body temperature regulating properties, ensuring comfort in various weather conditions during sports.

To maintain the durability of your denim shorts, wash them inside out in cold water with a mild detergent, avoiding intensive cycles. Ideally, opt for air drying rather than tumble drying. RAG Tailors denim shorts benefit from washing only when visibly soiled, not after each use. To preserve the colour, avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight during drying and do not use bleach. If stains do occur, spot treat them before washing them thoroughly. If you want to maintain their original appearance for longer, you can occasionally place your shorts in the freezer overnight to kill bacteria without damaging the fibres.

Currently, the most versatile and on-trend styles include relaxed-fit chino shorts, which work in both casual settings and more formal settings when paired with a shirt. Cargo shorts are back with a vengeance, now in updated, less bulky versions, ideal for a modern urban look. At RAG Tailors, we also offer linen shorts for smart summer occasions and technical styles with a casual look for greater everyday functionality. Mid-length (up to the knee) continue to be the most versatile, while neutral colours such as navy, beige and olive green allow for multiple combinations, adapting easily from work to play.
