Rick Owens Black Shorts

Rick Owens Black Shorts

Plain black shorts, elastic waist, long drawstring hanging past the knot, same natural cord seen through most of the line. No pockets visible, no zips, no hardware anywhere, just the basic shape.

Vertical seam runs down each leg from hip to hem, breaks up the flat surface a little without adding any real detail beyond that. Hem’s clean, not frayed or raw-edged like the DRKSHDW pair, just a plain finished bottom.

• Elastic drawstring waist
• Vertical side seams
• No pockets or hardware
• Black cotton, clean hem
• Above-knee length, wide leg

Fabric’s soft, drapes loosely without holding any structure, probably a lighter cotton than the technical or twill pieces. Waistband’s wide enough to sit comfortably without the drawstring doing all the work.

These are about as basic as the shorts get in the lineup, built to layer under or pair with something louder up top. A graphic Rick Owens Shirt or the Rick Owens Hoodie both work fine since the shorts stay quiet. Rick Owens Ramones or Rick Owens Vans suit the plain look well too.

Wash cold, no bleach, tumble dry low or hang dry. Iron on low if it needs it, nothing complicated with the care here since there’s no hardware or print to protect.
