Outerknown’s Seventyseven Cord Utility Shorts are a nostalgic nod to retro style, reworked with modern sensibility and sustainability in mind. Inspired by the laid-back silhouettes of the 1970s, these shorts are cut from a rugged, 12-wale corduroy that feels as good as it looks. The pigment-dyed finish gives each pair a washed-in, lived-in vibe, with slight color variations that make every short one-of-a-kind. It’s the kind of character you usually have to earn after years of wear.

The Outerknown Seventyseven Utility Shorts hit that sweet spot between form and function. A classic fit with a 7.25-inch inseam ensures a comfortably tailored look without being too short, while front patch pockets and secure rear pockets provide just the right amount of storage for your essentials. Whether you’re walking the boardwalk, cruising on your bike, or relaxing on a rooftop patio, these shorts bring effortless summer energy with zero fuss.

Offered in a range of warm-weather hues like Tawny Wood, Blue Skies, and Island Leaf, they pair effortlessly with a vintage tee or your favorite linen button-down. The tonal OK logo on the lower pocket is subtle, but it speaks volumes—because these shorts aren’t just about looking good; they’re also crafted responsibly. Like everything from Outerknown, they’re rooted in sustainable production and designed to last. At $98, they’re a worthy investment in comfort, craft, and style.
