MAKEMECHIC Zebra Striped Tennis Shorts

The fabric arrives surprisingly light and a little crisp. The black striped cloth sits flat against the tissue and the mini length reads short at first, then exact. The wrap cut overlaps cleanly, the stripe running across the fold so the pattern reads continuous when you hold it up. It feels ready for a quick change into something brighter.

At the edge of a long day the shorts keep their shape but show movement. Walks in a windy breeze make the skirtlike wrap lift and fall with a quick edge. If between two sizes the overlap will give a small visual ease at the hip, not a structural adjust, so plan your fit by how you like the wrap to sit.

One of 213 on the skirts, shorts and pants rail in the MAKEMECHIC lineup. It also answers to shorts. A size letter describes the garment rather than a body, and the way we keep the figures current is set out on how we update the catalogue.
