Wear the pants: Shop trouser shorts from Aritzia, Levi's, Good American and more to embrace this cool-girl trend.

The days of uncomfortable shorts that ride up are gone. Trouser shorts are the comfortable summer trend we're co-signing this year. These shorts — which often feature pleats and longer lengths — have a roomier fit. They're adjacent to the Bermuda shorts trend that may feel a bit tougher to pull off. Don't worry: We've got tips for styling the trouser shorts trend.

You can style trouser shorts with tighter, cropped tops for a balanced look to their longer inseams. Pair them with a vest for a matching set vibe. You can pair trouser shorts with more feminine accessories to balance them out. You can even wear trouser shorts to the office, and If you really want to embrace the workwear vibe, we're also seeing trouser shorts paired with lightweight blazers for summer.

Trouser shorts come in a range of fabrics, from breezy linens to more structured and professional cottons. We've found top styles from Aritzia, Levi's, Good American and more. Shop comfortable yet flattering trouser shorts below.
