Le Bon Shoppe Naturel City Shorts

The City Shorts are based on Le Bon Shoppe’s cult Arc Pants, translated into an easy pull-on short with the same softly curved shape and subtle volume through the leg. The side panel construction gives them that slightly sculptural silhouette Le Bon Shoppe always gets right — relaxed, roomy, but still somehow neat.

They sit high on the waist with a comfortable elasticated band that feels more like an old favourite than a traditional denim short. The proportions work especially well with socks and sandals, chunky trainers, oversized shirting, or tiny rib tanks — the kind of pieces that look best a little imperfect.

Made in South Korea from sturdy cotton with a softened garment-washed finish, they already feel broken-in from the first wear. The Naturel colourway is part of Le Bon Shoppe’s Au Naturel collection, made using unbleached, undyed, and unprocessed cotton yarn that keeps its original raw shade intact. Somewhere between oat, stone, and sun-faded canvas, the colour has a softness that feels easy with everything.

Because the cotton is left completely unprocessed, each pair carries slight variations in tone, texture, and fit — part of the beauty of working with raw natural fibres rather than overly finished fabric.
