These Bermuda shorts will make you ditch your Daisy Dukes for summer

During the hot summer months, cheeky denim cut-offs are our instant go-to wardrobe staple—so much so that we have to admit we sometimes overlook their longer, comfier cousins: Bermuda shorts. These mid-thigh shorts are the unsung anti-thigh chafing heroes of summer, and we think it’s time they get the respect they deserve, tbh.

From leather to denim, there are many options when it comes to how you wear your Bermudas. Whether it’s your first foray into the world of Bermuda shorts, or they’ve been a longtime staple in your summer wardrobe, you’re sure to find a pair that catches your eye in the list below.
