Lose length, not function.

You don't need to take the shears to your favorite work pants anymore. We did it for you. Without selling you short on the details that make it Dovetail. Based on our original Maven Slim workpant, these shorts skimp only on length. A pantload of pockets (10!). Tool loop for your hammer. Hip slot to clip your tape measure. Plus we added a crotch gusset so you move easy. All of this streamlined into a stylish, slim-fit short. No clunky cargo vibes here. Because you’re a maven, not a mule.

FEATURES

  • Same fit as Maven Slim Pant
  • Mid-rise, contoured waist
  • 10 functional pockets with HipSlot™
  • Hip clip pocket
  • Modern hammer loop
  • Gusseted crotch
  • Fabric weight: 10 oz
  • Fabric content: 97% Cotton / 3% Spandex
  • Tabor, featured in the photos, is wearing a size 4. She is 5’3”, has a 30” waist and 36” hips. She aspires to be a veterinarian. Seen here with her dog, Richie.
  • @Molligolightly, featured in the video, is wearing a size 6. She is 5'4", has a 29.5" waist and 38.5" hips.  She aspires to be the leader of Troop Beverly Hills. Seen here with every tool her dad ever gave her to go camping.

Love them

They fit great, I’m 5’5 145 pounds and got a size 4. The one side pocket on the right side is long and narrow which I don’t like to much kinda hard to get smaller items out of it. But overall it’s a great fit.

Just right for summer

These shorts are just what I wanted.(Though I sure would love more colors!) I went a size up from all my previous Dovetail pants (due to some pandemic pounds, not the shorts) and was worried at first they would still be too tight but have them a chance. True to form (so to speak) they loosened up nicely s most my other DT wear. In fact, I'd probably need a belt if working in them. For just kicking around (hello, pandemic pounds!) they were perfect. The fabric is crisp but I have confidence that will soften up nicely with wear and washing.

Maven slim work short

Love the fit, color and length. The fit works well on my athletic build. There is a nice stretch in the fabric. The look and use of these shorts are unique which is something I really love, too.

First time ordering dovetail and their stuff definitely runs small. Fabric on these shorts is forgiving enough they are comfortable, ordered same size in maven x and had to return. Hope they hold up
