Boys' Denim Shorts for Ages 8 to 15
MINOTI denim shorts for boys aged 8 to 15 make up the older sizes of the shorts range. Denim is a sturdy woven cotton, so it copes with bikes, football in the park and sitting on walls better than lighter fabrics. Wear them with a T-shirt and trainers through the school holidays, or add a hoodie on cooler summer evenings. For shorts in other fabrics, go back to the main Shorts page.
Measure his height standing straight without shoes and pick the nearest size. If he is between two, the larger one leaves room to grow over the summer. New denim usually feels a little stiff and softens after a few washes. Washing inside out with similar colours helps hold the colour, and the care label gives the right temperature. Leg length and fit vary from style to style, so check each product page before you order.
