The RVCA Cordell shorts tick all the boxes for this Spring 2013 season. Corduroy chino style walkshorts with a modern shorter 18 outseam & enzyme washed for a vintage look & feel. Regular 5-pocket shorts with a small embroidered logo at the front 'V' & 'A' embroidered at the back pockets. RVCA's success as a lifestyle brand is due to a melding of different subcultures & personalities into a tribe says founder PM Tenore. Tenore spent the early days of his life in a poverty-stricken neighbourhood of the Mission District in San Francisco.
