Men's 1940s Gurkha Shorts in Navy
Register your interest now for the launch in April 2026. The Gurkha short has a history that dates back to the 1940s. Originally worn by Gurkha soldiers serving in the British Army, the design was developed for warm climates where practicality, comfort, and a smart appearance were equally important.
Our Gurkha Shorts stay true to the classic details that made this style so distinctive. Cut with a high waist and deep front pleats, they create a clean, flattering shape through the leg while maintaining the sharp proportions typical of the era. Turn-ups add structure to the silhouette, while the adjustable side buckle waistband allows for a versatile fit without the need for a belt.
Finished with practical side pockets and a zip fly with side buckle fastenings, these shorts balance heritage design with everyday wearability. The result is a timeless piece that feels just as relevant today as it did in the 1940s.
Crafted from polyviscose, they offer a smooth drape and breathable comfort, ideal for keeping cool while looking sharp. Perfect paired with a revere collar shirt or a simple knit for effortless 1940s style.
