J.Crew is in the midst of a storewide sale that's giving shoppers 30% off their entire purchase—including an extra discount on sale products—with few restrictions. Oddly, it's the restricted products that are the most attractive right now. Men's polo shirts, Ludlow suits, and even the brand's classic chinos aren't part of the sale, but they're getting separate discounts of up to 50% off. One of the best pick-ups during the sale is the J.Crew classic chino shorts, which are a perennial men's staple that are under $50 for a limited time.

The iconic J.Crew Stretch Chino Shorts are on sale for just $40—a 43% discount on the normal $70 price. This year's version of the brand's beloved shorts is off to a scorching start, having already risen as a top-10 bestselling style for men while amassing dozens of five-star ratings from long- and first-time shoppers. They're available in waist sizes 28 to 42 and four different inseam lengths between 5 and 10.5 inches, and they come in as many as 10 neutral colors.

These classic men's chino shorts are made from cotton with a little bit of elastane that allows them to stretch for maximum comfort. They feature a zip fly with two slanted hand pockets, a small coin pocket, and two back pockets. The real draw to these shorts comes with the various inseams. Most brands offer two or three different lengths between 7 and 11 inches, but J.Crew now offers four: a 5-inch, a 7-inch, a 9-inch, and a 10.5-inch.

Many shoppers are particular about how their shorts drape, but J.Crew has the right fit for everybody. "Bought these in two colors," a shopper said. "Almost passed by in the store because I thought the only length options were 9 inches (too long) or 5 inches (too short), but luckily the clerk pointed out they also come in 7 inches, which was the perfect fit. Was also happy to find them in a 35 waist. Too many other stores only have even-numbered waist options, but 35 at J. Crew fits me perfectly."

Another shopper agreed, saying, "These are my go-to shorts every spring and summer! They are perfect for all occasions."

With some major cities in the US already hitting 80 degrees, shorts weather is closer than you might think. That's why now is the best time to get primed for warm weather with J.Crew's Stretch Chino Shorts on sale for just $40. Since the sale ends on April 15, you'll want to pick them up soon.
