The piece is constructed from a \u003cstrong\u003emid-weight denim\u003c\/strong\u003e in a \u003cstrong\u003edeep navy \/ dark blue\u003c\/strong\u003e — a saturated, dark indigo-adjacent blue with a cool, formal quality that distinguishes it from a standard washed denim short. Across the entire surface of the shorts — front, back, and waistband — the \u003cstrong\u003eDior Oblique pattern\u003c\/strong\u003e is printed in a \u003cstrong\u003etonal deep navy \/ near-black blue\u003c\/strong\u003e that reads against the dark navy denim ground through surface contrast and print density rather than colour contrast: the \"D\", \"i\", \"o\", and \"r\" letterforms of the Oblique repeat arranged in their characteristic \u003cstrong\u003ediagonal 45° orientation\u003c\/strong\u003e, the letters interlocking and repeating in a continuous, even-density all-over pattern across every panel of the garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eDior Oblique\u003c\/strong\u003e — designed by Marc Bohan in 1967 and revived as a house signature under Kim Jones — is a diagonal repeat of the four letters of the house name, the \"D\", \"i\", \"o\", and \"r\" arranged in an interlocking, offset grid at a consistent 45° diagonal, the letters reading in both directions across the fabric surface. On this dark navy denim ground, the Oblique is printed in a \u003cstrong\u003etonal near-black navy\u003c\/strong\u003e — the print visible through the contrast between the print's density and the denim's ground weave, the tonal palette making the Oblique present but not announced, the shorts reading as \u003cstrong\u003esolid dark navy denim from a distance\u003c\/strong\u003e and revealing their full-coverage Oblique print at close range. The \u003cstrong\u003euniform, even-density coverage\u003c\/strong\u003e — the Oblique at consistent density from waistband to hem, across every panel — gives the piece a total-surface monogram quality: the pattern present everywhere, the denim ground and the Oblique print in continuous dialogue across the entire garment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe construction is a \u003cstrong\u003eclassic five-pocket denim short\u003c\/strong\u003e: two front slash pockets, one coin pocket, two back patch pockets, a \u003cstrong\u003ezip fly with metal button waistband closure\u003c\/strong\u003e, and belt loops — all in the same Oblique-printed dark navy denim. At the back right waistband, a small \u003cstrong\u003esquare camel \/ gold Dior woven label\u003c\/strong\u003e is applied — a secondary house mark in a warm camel ground with house text, reading as a considered archival detail against the dark navy denim. The fit is \u003cstrong\u003erelaxed with a straight \/ slightly wide leg\u003c\/strong\u003e, the shorts sitting at the natural waist with a clean, contemporary silhouette.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColorway: Dark navy \/ deep blue denim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFabric: Mid-weight denim\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePattern: Dior Oblique (tonal, near-black navy on dark navy denim ground)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOblique orientation: Diagonal 45°, interlocking \"D\" \/ \"i\" \/ \"o\" \/ \"r\" letterform repeat (Marc Bohan, 1967; revived Kim Jones)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoverage: Uniform full-coverage — even density front \/ back \/ waistband (no gradient)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVisibility: Tonal — Oblique visible through print density contrast; reads as solid dark navy at distance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConstruction: Five-pocket denim short (2 front slash pockets, 1 coin pocket, 2 back patch pockets)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eClosure: Zip fly with metal button waistband\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBelt loops: Yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBack right waistband: Square camel \/ gold Dior woven label\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFit: Relaxed, straight \/ slightly wide leg\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSizes: 30 \/ 32 \/ 34 \/ 36 (waist sizing)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBrand: Dior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSize Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSize\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWaist (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHip (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eLength (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eHeight (cm)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight (jin)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e30\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e80\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e104\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e53\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e165–175\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100–140\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e32\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e84\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e108\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e54\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e170–180\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e140–160\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e34\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e88\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e112\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e175–185\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e160–180\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e92\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e116\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e58\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180–190\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e180–200\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: Measurements are taken flat by hand.

The dark navy ground and tonal Oblique print read as solid dark navy denim from a distance, the Oblique detail visible only at close range through the print's density contrast against the denim ground. Wear with a clean white or black Dior tee, an Oblique-print shirt for a full monogram look, or a lightweight knit. The dark navy pairs naturally with white, cream, grey, camel, and black tones. Finish with Dior B22, B30, or Explorer sneakers, or leather sandals. The relaxed straight fit and full-coverage Oblique print give the shorts a considered, house-pattern-forward quality that distinguishes them from standard denim shorts.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dior","offers":[{"title":"30","offer_id":45884305440815,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"32","offer_id":45884305473583,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"34","offer_id":45884305506351,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"36","offer_id":45884305539119,"sku":null,"price":139.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0758\/7233\/7967\/files\/wsxc1787844572175_0.jpg?v=1787815941","url":"https:\/\/darlabe.com\/products\/dior-oblique-full-coverage-tonal-denim-shorts-dark-navy","provider":"Dark Label","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
