Fashion Advice For Old People (25 yo+). Stunz input requested!

[chum1]

I basically quit wearing shorts this year because I'm so damn ancient. I've been wearing lightweight hiking pants instead.

Like, aren't the people who disliked cargo shorts the same age as the people who liked skinny jeans, which are definitely for old people now?

i think this checks out. i'm not sure kids even wear jeans anymore tbh

[Rage Against the McKee]

My only shorts are cargo shorts at this point. Life is just too short to not have at least a dozen pockets for my crap when I'm wearing shorts.

[chum1]

I used to love the crap out of cargo shorts for things like diapers and wipes back when I needed those things. That was probably near the peak of the cargo short backlash.

there's just way too much material involved with cargo shorts. also why would i want to have a can of beer bouncing around in my pants, getting all warm and frothy? stupid idea.

Is worrying about wearing cargo shorts an old people fashion thing? I'm truly not in a position to know, but I kinda think it is.

I've kinda embraced it now. last fathers day I was given the white new balance shoes as a joke.. jokes on them I love them for mowing.. paint em green boys!

A.) why are you drinking so slow
B.) have you ever even played cornhole? wth are you doing to make it bounce around?

Guys stop it with the jokes. I know you are gEing because I know that there is no way that y-l_a of all people is seriously considering cargo shorts.

[pissclams]

i've never understood the cargo short debate
i don't wear them but wouldn't notice or think negatively if the guy next to me was

You put the beer in your pocket to putt. It's only in there for 1 minute, tops.

This.  Cargo shorts are like 15 pounds

The beer goes on the green with the cigar across the top

I wear the crap out of cargo shorts.  Don't care, go Cats.

[star seed 7]

I stopped wearing non-gym shorts as well because I'm old. But if I had to choose between khaki shorts or cargo shorts, I'm going cargo everytime.

I have a pair of 10+ year old cargo shorts that are my go to fishing shorts in the summer. Plenty of room to hold a mini tackle box etc so you don't have to lug your main tackle box around each time you move.

That vest would totes ruin my tan which is like half the reason I go fishing

i wonder what kind of cargo shorts are we talking. there's levels to them.

[mocat]

this is probably true. i haven't paid attention to them since the early 00s when they were gigantic and baggy

[Dugout DickStone]

take old flat front khakis (jcrew my go to right now) and cut them off at your favorite length.  I go decently above the knee because I like to show skin.  As they wear from the wash, they get a delightful fringe and look amaze.  Been doing this for years

[chum1]

Excellent tip. Khaki cutoffs fit me 1000 times better than shorts you buy off the rack. Way more flattering.

[steve dave]

Double pleat pinstripe slacks for me. Cutoff right above the knee. Tres bien.

I tried to keep this a secret then I saw some nicer brands were selling shorts with the fray already there so I let me secret out .  Got the olive, tan, sand, light gray, salmon (only for a weekend on the Vineyard) and some light blues for this summer.  Then I buy replacements at the reduced spring cost and I am set like year old cement.
