Pickup currently unavailable at BSS
A stretch corduroy short built for comfort
The Katin Kenneth Short is made from a unique high low corduroy with a stretch built in for a soft-to-touch feel, the kind of comfort people are describing when they search for the katin kenneth short by name.
What it is made of
This short is constructed from a 98% polyester, 2% spandex high low corduroy, a blend that adds stretch to a fabric traditionally known for structure. It has front slash pockets and back welt pockets for storage, a fixed waistband for a secure fit, and an 18 inch outseam.
Who it is for and how it gets worn
This short fits into Katin's men's shorts lineup and is built for everyday comfort rather than performance activity. The stretch corduroy makes it a practical option for casual days out, whether around the shop, on a boat, or just running errands, where a soft, flexible fit matters more than a structured look.
Care and how it wears in
Because the fabric blends stretch spandex into the corduroy, it holds its shape through regular wear while staying comfortable to move in. The fixed waistband keeps the fit consistent through wash cycles, so it stays a reliable piece in the everyday rotation.
About Katin
Katin traces back to 1954, when Nancy and Walter Katin opened a small boat cover business in Surfside, California, just north of Huntington Beach. Raised along the California coast, the brand became a staple of Southern California surf culture and holds the title of one of California's first brands to make surf trunks, with a continued commitment to high-quality, durable goods.
