Jorts are trending, they were once popular in the early 2000s, worn as loose denim shorts and usually seen as casual everyday clothing. Now they are being worn in different ways, with different styles and fits, depending on the occasion.

Before going into the types of jorts and how they can be styled, let’s look at the meaning. Jorts is a short name for jean shorts, which are made from jeans and cut to a shorter length. It could fall above, around or slightly below the knee.

These are made from leather or faux leather instead of denim and have a more fashion-forward look, not really suited for casual dressing. They work well with a button-down shirt and pointed-toe heels.

These are tailored jorts with no extra detailing. They have a clean finish, similar to tailored trousers, and because of this, they look less bold compared to other styles. Wear them with a basic top, pointed-toe pumps, and a slim belt for a neat look.
