Product Information
Full details
The North Face TNF Essential Shorts in Grey, size L, are designed for adult females seeking comfortable, versatile shorts for casual and active use. Their key benefit lies in providing easy movement and day-long wearability thanks to a relaxed cut and lightweight woven fabric. A potential consideration is that while made of 100% cotton, the woven nature might offer less stretch than knit alternatives. These shorts feature tracksuit styling, are constructed from breathable cotton, and are machine washable.
