Boxer shorts: Fashion’s coolest are wearing underwear as outerwear this season

A comfier, more breathable alternative to denim, boxer shorts feel like pyjamas but – when styled correctly – look like actual clothes.

Wearing underwear as outwear is nothing new but this latest take on the trend shifts the spotlight off lingerie and puts it firmly on boxer shorts. Surprisingly easy to style up, they work with everything from matching poplin shirts to slouchy blazers, white tees and your favourite Birkenstock clogs… making them an easy summer staple for when it’s too hot to care.
