Real men wear whatever they damn well please. And they take the resulting ridicule like, well, like a man. Cite? Google “Rugby Shorts”.
You guys are nuts.
Blue jean shorts are as timeless as regular old blue jeans. Levis sells them, Old Navy sells them, Ralph Lauren, Lucky Brandetc.
These. Real men don’t think about what other people think about their clothes.
So? There’s someplace to buy every hideous item of clothing known to man. That’s how people wind up owning and wearing them.
You want to keep your jorts, just move to the Florida panhandle. Women here will still think your tractor’s sexy. Well, I won’t, but there are plenty who will.
Woah, I thought he was manipulating two little action figures as he walked along. I could have sworn the first one was Obi Wan Kenobee.
Yeah, but it’s not like the only place you can get them is Sam’s Club, Walmart, and Fleet Farm.
They seem to still be a staple at most trendy teen stores, Gap, Hollister, A&F.
My husband wears shorts kind of like these on hot summer days (all five of them). I suspect those of you who say real men don’t wear shorts just don’t have the legs for them. He absolutely refuses to wear sandals, though. Or dance with his arms over his head.
Yeah. I could understand the disdain if somebody takes a pair a scissors and makes their own blue jean shorts with the frayed ends at the bottom. But I seriously don’t see what’s so tacky about your typical Levis or Ralph lauren type of jean shorts.
If you don’t mind looking like a doofus, carry on.
Ralph Lauren Jean shorts for men? From when, 1990? I haven’t been to the Gap or A&f lately, but I had no idea they still sold Jean shorts.
They are the object of universal ridicule where I’m from. University of Florida fans love them, though.
Uh, okay…not those shorts. He’s just ruinging it for the rest of you.
Now, looking at that photo, and some of the ones in the jorts link I can understand how people might arrive at the conclusion that jeans shorts are awful. Also, someone who’s seen such an infraction in person might not want to bother differentiating. “Jeans shorts are awful” is an easier position to stick to than “Jeans shorts are awful, unless the guy’s legs are tanned, and the shorts aren’t too tight, or too loose.” It doesn’t leave room for trifling debate.
I should also say that me not minding something in no way makes it fashionable.
They still sell shit like this, but that doesn’t mean you should buy it and wear it.
Real men don’t give a shit about your sissy gossip.
Real men don’t drink beer. We drink whiskey. Beer is for bathing. Water is for ballons that get thrown at people wearing jorts.
I can almost see him winking at me!
You fool! You put bleach the balloons that you throw at people.
Anything that is comparable to what was worn by either the Brits or the Afrika Korps in WWII should be manly enough.
I rock shorts all of the time… its far to hot here in the A to walk around in some jeans… You nancy’s need to do some standing calf raises… and squats so your legs will be worth lookin at…
and jean shorts are fine as long as its a darker denim and its baggy and reaches your knee..
What’s hot this summer in NH for mens shorts for men and women also this year are the return of the Bermuda shorts. I have a Liz Claiborne pair with a very faint plaid print in pastels pink and beige. Men are also wearing plaid Bermudas this year and already have seen them about town. They seem to be gaining on the cargo’s but at Bobs the military print cargo’s are a big seller.
