The light and airy fabric of these shorts is made of equal parts cotton and linen, which makes it pleasant to the skin and particularly breathable - perfect for hot summer days. The woven vertical stripes add a striking visual accent and slim the silhouette. The knee-length shorts have a loose fit with a straight, wide leg. An elasticated waistband with a drawstring ensures a snug and comfortable fit. Two side pockets can hold small items for everyday use.

Behind the Danish label Care By Me are designer Camilla Gullits and her business partner Pernille Pold. Their designs bring together Danish design and the traditional craftsmanship of India and Nepal, as their goal is to offer high-quality, durable clothing and home textiles while supporting local women artisans. In Nepal, for example, handmade textiles account for a large part of the national economy; as in India, the production of these textiles has always been in the hands of women. Care By Me therefore collaborates with small workshops where women can learn and practice traditional crafts, thereby providing them with a secure income. The virgin wool comes from the region around Kathmandu and is spun there as well. The cotton used comes from certified organic cultivation; Care By Me sources it from a GOTS- and Fair Trade-certified partner company.
