Most of these shorts styles are suitable for children, youth and adults. Some are even good for guys, as well as gals.
What other features do you want in your cut-off jeans?
Maybe you can think of additional ways to design your own cut-off jeans for hot summer weather.
Just think of the many looks you might produce by adding your choice of colorful patches, paints, stencils, embroidery or even a few strategic rips and tears in your tried-and-true denims. Why not add unique trims, appliques, fancy buttons, extra pockets, buckles or other accessories to make your own cut-off jeans a bit more funky and fun?
Kick up those heels in your own self-styled cut-off shorts, Capri pants or Bermudas. Slip on some sandals, platforms, sneakers or flip flops, and you're ready for the hottest, most humid weather Mother Nature has to offer.
