The Made To Fade Short is a new essential in Roark’s summer 2025 lineup. Crafted to wear in, not wear out. Developed as part of the Made To Fade collection, these pigment-dyed shorts take on a unique character the more you move, explore, and let life leave its mark. From the saltwater and sun to dirt roads and spontaneous spills, every journey etches into the fabric, telling your story in its fade.
Designed with an elastic waistband and flat drawcord, these shorts are built for all-day comfort whether you're chasing waves, navigating hidden trails, or just laid-back lounging. A 97% cotton, 3% spandex blend offers just the right amount of stretch, while durable double-needle seams stand up to heavy use. With oversized front patch pockets and a snap-closure back pocket with pull tab, there’s storage for the essentials without compromising the clean silhouette.
Whether paired with the Made To Fade Tee or Short Sleeve Shirt, these shorts are a staple built for everyday wear, ready for wherever the road takes you.
