wide/long/flared shorts shorts in technical materials
I've been digging this wider, longer, flared shorts silhouette I've been seeing lately, but it feels like most of them have sort of dressy vibes—wool, "suiting shorts", pleated, etc. Does anyone know of shorts with this silhouette but with more technical/gorp type fabrics or details? Nylon, ripstop, cargo pockets, elastic strapys, that sort of thing. Some visual references for the shape culled from #inspiration attached. I probably wouldn't spend more than like $200 bucks on something like this but post whatever you got, I'm mostly just curious what's out there.

I’m gonna post some anglan half pants. [AG] are the actual anglan ones and others are cheap alternatives they sell on their site but slightly worse quality
Also all of the anglan ones come in different colors (and those multi pocket ones are actually cheaper in other colors)

Thanks y'all! Of these the Sillage are def my favorite but 🤑 🤑 🤑
The Anglan ones are great too; they do look slightly longer than I would want in my dreams. The model is a bit shorter than me though so maybe....
They're also like 10% the price of the sillage ones which helps haha
Minotaur is intriguing, wish they had model pics
I've been seeing this a lot in denim, hitting below the knee and a touch narrower. Not sure if that's up your alley.
Nah jorts not really what I’m looking for. But other workwear-y vibes I could be into like a non-denim cotton drill.

Don't worry about the budget part I'm just partially looking inspo / what's out there. Also to be clear not doing anything technical in these they would just be for fashion lol
