The Avenue Shorts feature a moderately high rise, an elastic waistband, and a subtle A-line silhouette that flares slightly through the legs for an easy, breezy fit with a touch of volume. Mix and match details like inseam pockets, side stripes, a split hem, back pockets, and a ruffle hem to create one of 24 possible versions, and find your perfect “avenue”.

Suitable Fabrics
Suitable Fabrics
The Avenue Shorts can be made in a variety of fabrics depending on the look you’re going for. Woven fabrics in the 3-8 oz range are a great place to start, and are what I most commonly reach for.
You can also experiment with less traditional options, like ripstop nylon for a more outdoorsy feel, or sweatshirt fleece and French terry for lounge shorts.

Body & Finished Measurements
With a relaxed fit and a touch of volume through the hips and an adjustable elastic waist, this garment is best sized according to your hip measurement.
Use the finished garment measurements to see how much ease your Avenue Shorts will have, which will help you choose your size.
If you prefer a slimmer fit in your hips, size down. If you like your shorts with lots of extra wiggle room, size up.
If you’re stumped on sizing (or just want some extra tips), I created an in-depth sizing guide just for you!
Fabric Requirements
This chart shows the exact fabric requirements needed if the fabric is cut while flat and not folded.
The measurements are the minimum amounts needed and does not account for fabric shrinkage because all fabrics shrink at different rates. Please take this into account when choosing fabric.
