Vintage 1970s Hot Shorts Light Red

Vintage 1970s Hot Shorts Light Red

These are pure 1970s summer charm. A vintage pair of hot shorts in a light red, almost pink tone, finished with side snap details and the cutest little snap pocket. Simple, playful, and full of character, they feel made for warm days and easy outfits.

While these no longer have the original tags attached, they are in better overall condition than most shorts from this era. The fabric presents cleanly, the snaps are intact, and the details really shine. Like many vintage elastic waist pieces, the waistband no longer has much give due to age, so measurements are important when considering fit.

These have that classic 70s athletic-meets-casual look but with extra personality. The side snaps and pocket elevate them just enough, making them feel special without being fussy. A perfect fit for the Open Road Summer collection.
