And being as vertically challenged as I am, they came down to the perfect length- at mid-upper thigh. The shorts they sell these days are ridiculous for short people- on me it's literally like wearing clown pants. If Daisy Dukes were back in style, I would be all over them in a heartbeat!

See, I never go into American Apparel or Urban Apparel or whatnot. So, I didn't know what was on the tables for this summer, but those high school 70's style gym shorts sound ironic enough to be hipster-compatible. I guess that would go good with white knee-socks with colored striping on top and blue trainers.
Even if that style sweeps the country, my shorts are never rising above my knee again. LOL. Besides, in some countries of the world like India- only young boys ever wear shorts. A gentleman man would never, no matter how hot it is. I've traveled so much,that I usually adopt the same mentality so as not to look like the 'ugly American'.
