Kay Pleated Denim Shorts

Founded in 2016 by designer Marina Cortbawi, Brooklyn-based Merlette thoughtfully crafts its garments from all natural, high-quality materials (cotton, wools and silks) with bespoke finishes — perfect for building a timeless wardrobe.

These 'Kay' shorts have stitched-down pleats along the waistline to lend a touch of structure, while the wide leg provides an airy, fluid drape. Waist tabs allow for a customized fit, complemented by custom Merlette hardware for a refined finish. An embroidered "M" at the back waist adds a subtle branded detail.
