A breathable chambray short for warm weather days
The Katin Isaiah Local Short uses a breathable cotton-linen chambray built to stay light in the heat, with a textured handfeel that gives it a relaxed, polished edge suited for sunshine.
What the Isaiah Local Short is made of
- 75% cotton, 25% linen fabric
- Elastic waistband with external drawcord
- Front welt side-seam pockets
- Back welt pockets
- Split side seam hem
- Faux fly
- Clean finished interior binding
- 17 inch outseam
The 75 percent cotton, 25 percent linen chambray blend is what gives this short its breathability and its textured handfeel, and the clean finished interior binding is what keeps the inside of the short comfortable against skin rather than rough or unfinished.
Who it is for
This short suits anyone who wants a warm weather short with more polish than a plain volley short, whether worn out to dinner after a beach day, around town, or just for everyday South Florida heat. The elastic waistband with external drawcord keeps the fit adjustable, and the welt pockets front and back give it a clean, tailored look rather than a purely athletic one.
Wear and care
Because the fabric blends cotton with linen, expect some natural texture and a slightly relaxed drape that is part of the design rather than a flaw. Wash cold and turn the short inside out to protect the clean finished interior binding and the split side seam hems, and expect the linen content to soften with wear over time.
Katin, since 1954
Katin was founded in 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 labels to make surf trunks, a heritage that carries into everyday pieces like the Isaiah Local Short.
