for the kantha stitch is there any risk of the stitches becoming undone?

I wouldn't worry about it. I have 2 pairs of shorts and my kids are always pulling on them (and me) and haven't had issues. Some of the stitches are fraying from wear and maybe a few broke but it's not unraveling or anything.

OK that's good to know. I was more worried about the Yousef because it isn't lined like the shorts are and some of the stitches seem loose on the inside

The black kantha shorts aren't lined and I haven't had problems so far though I haven't worn them as much as the blue ones.

Have gorecki pocket bags undergone any improvements or are they still super thin?

I have three and put my phone (iPhone 12 pro with apple leather case) in front left pocket and they all have holes.

I guess I need more pairs to rotate but never had this issue with any other pants. I also always cold wash gentle and hang dry them.

Bagged myself a pair of the diamondweave single pleats from a couple of years back through Grailed...my god they are perfection. New to singlepleats, but an immediate convert

Quick question: is there an early entry password for newsletter subscribers?

Followed up regarding the pocket bags and my India team remind me that as of February we had increased the weight of the fabric. Also based on this feedback I added another 1" to the depth going forward.
