I'm Over Denim Shorts—Here's 32 Chic Pairs I'm Shopping Instead

I'm sure I'm not alone when I say I want my summer outfits to look and feel effortless. I love a look full of complicated layers in the fall and winter, but once the weather warms up, I lean into the laidback aesthetic, meaning a rotation of dresses, tank tops, tees, and shorts. But when I recently pulled out my summer staples, I quickly realized that most of my shorts are denim, and as of this year, my tastes have changed. While I once loved denim shorts, I'm officially over them now.

This is just a personal preference. I think everyone should wear whatever they like, but I don't find denim shorts comfortable anymore. I prefer lightweight linen or soft cotton when temperatures are high, so I've been on a mission to replace my denim shorts collection with more breathable fabrics. I've scoured the internet for the best non-denim shorts to add to my summer wardrobe and found some seriously chic options. Below I'm sharing my favorite finds in case you're in the market. Keep scrolling for 32 pairs of non-denim shorts for summer.
