If you’re in the business of building your wardrobe from head-to-toe with your favorite brands, then Mack Weldon is certainly a brand to know. If you read the blog, perhaps you know all about how they make some of the best T-shirts for men, plus the best casual hoodie. What if I told you it gets even better beyond that, though? I’m talking, naturally, about the Mack Weldon Radius Shorts, a new launch from the brand here just in time for summer — and surely, destined to become your new favorite shorts. They check plenty of the right boxes, as I like to say, as far as the best shorts for men are concerned, and again, if you know Mack Weldon, you know that’s not hyperbole. Mack Weldon menswear is as functional as it is fashionable. And in the case of the Mack Weldon Radius Shorts, the brand carries on that lineage quite nicely indeed.

They’re water, wind and stain-resistant, making them the perfect shorts for summer travel and hours in the sun. They carry the same DNA as the excellent and much-loved Mack Weldon Radius Pants, which is great news if you value menswear that moves with you, wears well over time and looks just plain great. In fact, I’d recommend that you pick up the Radius Pants to wear to the office (for example), and then keep your new favorite summer shorts handy to wear on the weekend.

These shorts also get the details right in terms of fit. The Mack Weldon Radius Shorts feature a 9-inch inseam, which should work quite well if you’re on the the taller side, or if you want men’s shorts that hit right at the kneecap. They’re also sleek in terms of design — no cargo pockets in sight. And as you might expect, the Mack Weldon Radius Shorts are affordably priced at $78, leaving you with some extra cash if you want to stock up on, say, the Mack Weldon Vesper Polo or the classic Mack Weldon Pima Crew Neck. That’s another great selling point about the Mack Weldon Radius Shorts: Versatility is the name of the game.

They feature four-way stretch for maximum comfort, no matter what you wear ’em with, and neutral color options like True Navy or Asphalt help you maximize the most bang for your buck. Add in the flexible waist and belt loops — unlike the drawstring shorts you’ve been wearing, these ones will need a belt — and you’ve got yourself some of the best men’s shorts for summer. And by that, I mean this summer, and next summer, and the summer after that… stock up accordingly, folks.
