NNT CAT3U5 P/V Gaberdine Womens Secret Waist Short

The NNT CAT3U5 P/V Gaberdine Women’s Secret Waist Short is a smart update to one of NNT’s best-selling styles, delivering improved fit, enhanced comfort, and the same polished look that made the original a favourite. Based on the popular CAT3AN Secret Waist Short, this refreshed version has been thoughtfully refined, including a more comfortable fit and a relocated key loop to the right-hand side for everyday practicality. It’s a dependable, professional short designed to move with you and keep you looking sharp all day long.

Designed with a knee-length, tapered leg, this short offers a flattering and modern silhouette that works perfectly in professional and corporate environments. The tailored shape provides structure without feeling restrictive, making it ideal for long workdays where comfort and presentation are equally important. The length offers confident coverage while maintaining a clean, streamlined appearance that pairs easily with shirts, blouses, or knit tops.

One of the standout features of this style is the hidden elastic waist insert at the sides. This clever design provides added flexibility and comfort without compromising the sleek, tailored look of the waistband. The elastic moves with your body, allowing for easy movement when sitting, walking, or bending, while remaining discreet and invisible from the outside. It’s a subtle feature that makes a noticeable difference to all-day comfort.

The front of the short features a centre front zip closure with an extension tab and internal hook and bar, ensuring a secure and polished finish. This closure system keeps the waistband sitting flat and smooth, reinforcing the structured look while offering reliable wear throughout the day. It’s a professional detail that adds to the overall quality and durability of the garment.

Practicality has been carefully considered in every aspect of the NNT CAT3U5 P/V Gaberdine Womens Secret Waist Short. It includes six belt loops, allowing you to style it with your favourite belt for added polish or functionality. The key loop has been repositioned to the right-hand side, making it more accessible and user-friendly, especially for busy workdays when convenience matters.

Storage is also well covered, with two hip pockets and a coin pocket on the right-hand side, offering space for small essentials without adding bulk. At the back, a welt pocket with button closure on the right-hand side adds a refined touch while remaining functional and secure. These pocket details are thoughtfully placed to maintain a streamlined look while providing everyday practicality.

The NNT CAT3U5 P/V Gaberdine Womens Secret Waist Short is also designed with longevity and tailoring in mind. A 3cm centre back seam allowance allows for easy waist alterations, making it simpler to achieve the perfect fit. Additionally, the 5cm hem allowance provides flexibility for length adjustments, ensuring the shorts can be tailored to suit individual preferences or workplace requirements. These features make the garment ideal for uniforms or long-term wear, where fit and adaptability are essential.

Made from durable P/V gaberdine, this short offers excellent structure, resilience, and easy care. The fabric holds its shape well, resists creasing, and maintains a crisp, professional finish throughout the day. It’s a reliable choice for busy environments, offering both comfort and durability without sacrificing style.

In short, the NNT CAT3U5 P/V Gaberdine Women’s Secret Waist Short is a refined, functional, and flattering piece designed for modern working women. With its knee-length tapered leg, hidden elastic waist, improved fit, practical pocketing, and alteration-friendly design, it delivers comfort and confidence in equal measure.
