Our Luxe Organic Pima Cotton Lounge Shorts redefine what casual can feel like. These shorts deliver silky comfort and breathable ease you'll love lounging in all day. The smooth elastic waistband, 7" inseam, clean lines, and minimalist design make them as flattering as they are comfortable. Whether you're relaxing at home, running weekend errands, or pairing them with the matching tee or cami, these shorts embody effortless luxury rooted in sustainability.
Our signature all-cotton interlock Luxe is incredibly soft & silky. but its ingenuity is its ability to stretch without spandex. This is called mechanical stretch, achieved by the meticulously designed structure of the yarns. The fabric is washed before it's cut and sewn, an uncommon but very beneficial step. It minimizes shrinking over time (when following care instructions) and also prevents puckering and twisting around seams that often happens in your dryer when sewing threads shrink but fabric doesn't. Luxe fabric is used on many of our dresses, our all-cotton leggings, and in our most luxurious t-shirts. True investment-quality fabric!
Why will your organic cotton clothing feel otherworldly soft right out of the bag and endure beautifully for years? Because we use the top 0.05% (not a typo) of cotton available. Softest and strongest aren't often used to describe a single fiber. Except when it's organic Peruvian Pima cotton. Ours is grown on two family farms and harvested with care by hand. Simply the best cotton you'll find anywhere on the planet.
All of our dyes are certified to the most stringent safety standards such as the Oeko-tex 100 standard. They're tested for literally hundreds of dangerous substances like Azo colorants, formaldehyde, pentachlorophenol, cadmium, and nickel. Our dyes meet or exceed the US Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) regarding lead and the European Chemical Regulation (REACh).
You've probably heard the expression 'less is more.' At Fair Indigo, we're inspired by the idea striving for LESS. A saner wardrobe that makes use of timeless 'forever in fashion' pieces you'll go back to time and again. That's why we build in quality - from the cotton and dyes we select to the extra processes we implement to create a garment you'll love for years. Buy better, buy less, live fully.
Often when apparel brands talk about sustainability, they are talking about making clothing that respects the environment and its limited resources - something to be applauded for sure. But at Fair Indigo, it also means sustainable lives for the world's garment workers. And a sustainable business model that prices clothing fairly, not too-good-to-be-true low (a signal the people were left out of the equation) nor artificially high to promote a future 70% off sale. It's time to move beyond fast fashion. For good.
In addition to living wage jobs, we believe the key to transforming communities from poverty to prosperity is education.
The Fair Indigo Foundation funds teachers' salaries, books, building improvements, and computer labs for children who otherwise were being left behind. Learn more.

"I love the fit and comfort of these shorts. But they seem to have a quality control problem. The stitching around the waist band is unraveling and there are many loose threads. I would consider repurchasing if you resolved these issues. For $45 I expect the consistent quality seen with your other garments."
"I love the soft fabric, and the length is perfect. I also like tht they are not too tight or loose in the legs--just right. the blue color is lovely also. however--do not like the thin elastic band--does not work for those of us with any belly. a wider band would make these perfect. I have organic cotton shorts from two other brands who don't work in the first areas but have a great waistband--wish i could combine them!"
"I bought these shorts with some trepidation. Worried they’d shrink in the was, be too flimsy, whatever. I did have to go up a size, but they’re soft, comfortable, fit well, look good, great for exercising, just walking around, hanging out. Put them in the washer and dryer. They came out great."
"These shorts are perfect. I'm short and the length on me is still good. It's not easy finding organic 100% cotton shorts so I bought one in every color. If they would come out with more colors, I'd buy those as well."
"Like that they are soft, comfy, long enough and 100% cotton. Hope you stock more charcoal grey in XL."
"Great fit and so comfy! Really great athletic shorts as well as just for lounging or anything else. Very soft."
"These are absolutely so soft! For reference, I'm about 123 lbs with a 29-inch waist, 38-inch hips, and a 33-inch measurement at the widest part of my belly, which is right where the waistband of these shorts sits. I ordered a size small, and the fit is great. I'm very sensory-sensitive when it comes to waistbands. The waistband is about 6 cm wide, but the elastic is only 2 cm wide and is sewn into the very top of the waistband. I would have loved for the elastic to extend through the full 6 cm so the pressure was distributed more evenly instead of cutting into my stomach. This is the same with the waistband on the the Women's Organic Knit Pants with Pockets. Other than that, they're perfect!"
"I love how soft and light they are but the price is incredibly high. If they were a little cheaper, i would buy them all."
"I love organic cotton: so soft and comfortable. These shorts are just right for the hot weather we are having. They're attractive and a good fit."
"Just what you need in shorts. Comfy, lightweight, and they look good. I've come to expect nothing less from Fair Indigo!"
