The best linen shorts for men in 2025, according to GQ.

The Best Linen Shorts Give Your Summer Fits Dimension

Fellas, we all know linen shorts are good in the heat. That's the pitch you've heard a thousand times. But they're also a terrific way to add a little texture to your summer wardrobe. As my colleague Gerald Ortiz writes in his roundup of the season's best options, linen's "tendency to rumple and wrinkle, and its feathery drape, adds tons of textural intrigue to your warm-weather outfits."

The man’s right. Because once the layers come off, those subtle details start to matter a whole lot more. Read on for our updated edit on the linen shorts worth wearing all summer long.
