Southern Tide 9" Channel Marker Chino Short in Seagull Gray — Size 36

Southern Tide is a Charleston-founded coastal lifestyle brand whose Channel Marker Chino Short is one of the most consistent and well-regarded entries in the brand's casual bottoms program — a clean, versatile chino short that delivers the Southern Tide coastal prep aesthetic in a practical, everyday-useful silhouette. The Channel Marker has remained a staple in the brand's lineup precisely because it executes the classic chino short brief with the fit precision, fabric quality, and design restraint that Southern Tide's coastal customer expects. This pair arrives new with original tags. Please note that a small spot is present on the front under the zipper area — please review all listing photographs carefully before purchasing.

The 98% Cotton, 2% Spandex construction is the correct fabric specification for a dress chino short at this positioning: the Cotton-dominant blend provides the natural breathability, surface refinement, and pressed appearance that a clean chino short demands in coastal casual and smart-casual contexts, while the minimal Spandex addition provides just enough stretch and recovery to make the 9-inch inseam comfortable for all-day active casual wear without the fabric restricting movement. The 9-inch inseam is the Channel Marker's key proportional choice — longer than a swim-trunk-adjacent short, shorter than a walking short, sitting in the versatile middle ground that reads as appropriate for everything from the club to the beach town lunch table. The Seagull Gray colorway is a clean, sophisticated neutral that positions these shorts as a refined alternative to the standard khaki or navy chino short — a muted grey with the warmth of cotton fabric that pairs naturally with navy, white, and virtually every coastal casual color palette.

Style & Care

The Seagull Gray colorway and 9-inch chino construction make these shorts a natural anchor for coastal casual and smart-casual warm-weather dressing — wear them with a white or navy Southern Tide performance polo and leather boat shoes for a clean club or marina combination, pair them with a white Oxford cloth button-down and leather loafers for a polished coastal casual look where the gray chino reads as sophisticated and considered, or wear them with a lightweight tee and clean leather sneakers for an everyday casual summer outfit where the neutral gray and tailored chino finish provide the refinement.

• SKU: RAB455
• Care: Machine wash cold with like colors on a gentle cycle; tumble dry low or remove promptly and hang to finish drying. The Cotton-dominant construction responds well to a warm iron or steamer to maintain the clean chino appearance — avoid high heat in the dryer to prevent shrinkage and preserve the Spandex stretch recovery and the integrity of the Seagull Gray colorway wash after wash.
