It's no secret that the jort is very much in right now. From the grounds of music festivals to the sands of your local beach – the Daisy Dukes of our youth are currently tucked away, and the knee-grazing jort has taken pride of place in our wardrobes this season thanks to the likes of Billie Eilish and Bella Hadid's penchant for oversized styles. Somewhere between a short and a three-quarter-length jean, the jort is usually a bit more baggy and relaxed – often channeling that 'boyfriend' style that has remained perennially popular on runways and in closets over the past few years (ever since the downfall of the skinny jean in the 2010s).
Thankfully, the jort is both practical and comfortable as well as just being fashionable, but if you're new to the style, they can be a little hard to shop for. Finding the perfectly relaxed and oversized pair of jorts can be trickier than finding a figure-hugging pair of shorts because you might need to size up, or find a pair of jorts with an already-loose silhouette. Maybe you don't want to do a classic blue jean and are looking for a pair of cream or brown denim jorts to compliment a more neutral fit?
