Where are the sizes?

For your most flattering fit, we ditched standard sizes. We make your tailor-made short to your unique measurements, and ship it straight to your door. No hassle, no fittings, and no extra tailoring cost. Here's how it works:

  • Customize your style
  • Checkout and place order
  • After checkout, we'll text your secure link. Just wear tight fit clothing, click the link, and prop your phone to take 2 photos. The photos auto-generate your measurements and are then auto-deleted.
  • No into photos? No problem. You can email us your measurements, and we'll send you a measuring tape if you need one.

    • Our Lifetime Fit Guarantee + Returns

    We 100% guarantee every piece we make for life

    • Don’t love your fit? Make your final adjustments with a local tailor and we’ll give you a $30 tailoring credit on your order.
    • Still not in love? You can send your piece back for a full refund, less return shipping and handling. Then we’ll wash, alter, and donate it to a woman at Dress for Success who just landed a job.
    • If your body changes over time and your piece is still wearable, we’ll alter your piece for free! You only pay for shipping.

    I really like the shorts! They fit well, very comfortable and pockets are great! I would avoid wearing them on a very hot day but otherwise their great shorts!

    Great fit

    Really comfortable and very nice material and fit. I would prob purchase some pants from you but I like Capri length and I didn’t see anything like that in your catalog

    Perfection!

    I don’t like wearing shorts, but the increasing hot summers in the Pacific NW convinced me to give in and start wearing shorts.
    Most shorts fit me funny, too short, baggy in the butt and legs, and just ugly.
    I decided to try RedThread shorts. I figured if I had to wear shorts at least I could wear ones that fit and are comfortable.
    These far surpassed my expectations! They fit perfectly, look great and are extremely comfortable.
    Thank you RedThread, you truly live up to your reputation.
