I'm not sure those classify as shorts beyond the obvious length. They're athletic training pants in my view. And, as is obvious from the video there's a time and place for sartorial short pants wear. These kids today simply do not know how to rock a proper pair of shorts. It's got to barely cover the mullet. Who wears short shorts? Men who came of age in the late 70's and early 80's.
The gf and I are into late 40's film noir. She opined how wonderful men looked in suits and fedoras. And I shot back that she would looked good in garters, girdles and pearls. It's very comfortable to dress in jeans and up scale Good Will surfer chic - me more than her. She buys new. But looking at pictures of our grandparents we still evince a youthfull hipness our flapper grandparents never kept.
I moved to Arizona in June and have worn long pants exactly once so far. Partly it was cool, but I was also doing yard work and it seems like every plant here just wants to hurt you.

31 degrees here this morning. My 17 year old son wore shorts to school.
A national disgrace.

Do you find the commentary accompanying the video insufferable? Asking for a Sox fan.

Finally put on pants (not shorts) this AM for comfort the first time since about March.
Florida is full, and we have horrible scary storms. Don't move here, whatever you do.

Kershaw has a decidedly weird windup.
Sure glad the Series starts in Fenway. Thanks, wins.

I think he's been watching old Bugs Bunny cartoons.

Men in Shorts? Men on Film!
Who remembers when the Chicago White Sox wore shorts?
