These easy to wear cotton shorts are trimmed with unexpected details akin to Saywood; deep red topstitching, a subtle triangle shape cut out at the back waist, and berry red cotton herringbone tape on the back patch pocket corners.

Clothing Care | Wash less, love always

We recommend hanging your trousers to air outdoors, rather than washing after every wear. This way, they will last longer and also have a lower environmental impact. Spot clean marks with warm soapy water, and when it does need a wash, follow our care advice:

- Machine wash 30 degrees
- Wash with similar colours
- Medium iron
- Do not bleach
- Do not tumble dry

A note on our cotton and Codelite® buttons

Our berry red stripe cotton is from designer deadstock, bought through Nona Source, a supplier who collects surplus cloth directly from fashion houses. This particular cloth originally came from a fabric mill in Portugal. We’ve used corozo – known as vegetable ivory – for the button on the zipper, as it comes from a nut found in South America which can only be harvested once it naturally falls to the ground, making it a more sustainable choice. It’s also biodegradable. The zipper is nickel free and the tape made from recycled polyester.


The Bessie Short is handmade in the UK, in North East London at MAES, just down the road from the Saywood studio, keeping our carbon footprint minimal.
