Plaid Tee and Denim Shorts Streetwear Look

TALISHKO styled outfit

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I wear this combo year round or is it more of a seasonal look?

It leans more spring or fall since the layered long sleeve tee gives some warmth while the denim shorts keep it breathable. You can always swap the tee for a short sleeve version underneath once it gets warmer and keep the same silhouette.

Does the layered tee run true to size, and should I size up to wear it looser over the shorts?

It generally fits true to size, but if you want that relaxed, slightly oversized drape that balances the mid length shorts, going up one size works well. Check the size chart for shoulder and body length since that affects how the layers hang.

How do I dress this look up a bit without losing the streetwear feel?

Swap the sneakers for a cleaner low profile pair and add a chain or a structured cap, that alone shifts it from casual to more put together. The plaid layering on this TALISHKO tee already gives it some visual interest so you don't need to add much else.

Any tips for washing the denim shorts and tee so the distressed and washed details hold up?

Turn both pieces inside out and wash cold on a gentle cycle to protect the distressing and the washed denim finish from fraying too fast. Skip the dryer if you can and just air dry flat to keep the shape intact.
