Chasing my tail
In this record heat today in Quebec there's a lot of skin exposed. I tuned to the English am radio station for the traffic report when I hear a segment talking where the female host is roasting cargo shorts. It seems women here in the east find them terribly unattractive. Some of my favorite shorts are cargo. Women calling in explain those who wear them are making a statement.
So am I trailer trash in mine?...I had no idea I was such a lowlife. By the looks of a lot of other dudes in these parts I'm not alone.
 
All those pockets though...
 
Cargo shorts are really useful, but it's a casual style that veers sharply toward sloppy. Carry a small shoulder bag instead for your junk.
 
I think it depends.....cargo shorts thst look like army surplus is sloppy. But ones made for golf course is better. Mind you the pockets in those become less functional.

I find the extra pockets useless. A cellphone in the thigh pocket becomes a constant annoyance as it bangs my thigh or knee.

Wallet, keys, phone...... two standard pockets covers it.

Golf or dress shorts with a collared t shirt i think is a decent way to go in the summer.
 
Cargo shorts are visually cluttered wth all those pockets, draw strings, integrated belt and definitely when you get them in camo. Then you have guys that wear with white socks and sandals.
They're there ultimate douche look.

I get that you we have to carry so much stuff like wallet, charger, keys and phone, but just use a bag for that.
 
I don't fall for the man shaming via cargo shorts. It's just some loud mouthed radio announcer trying to get listeners to tune in. Cargo shorts are one of the greatest inventions of mankind. I believe if rosa parks were alive today she would endorse them because of their practicality and style

So where do I put my Air, stash and extra batteries?

I love cargo shorts! If you think they are ugly, don't look at me! :yo:

I wear cargo shorts all the time. I don't care what someone else thinks. They are to comfortable. Better than wearing a pair of knickers!
 
Women love cargo shorts.

It let's her leave her purse at home while you have her keys, phone, cards and makeup in your pockets.
 
Strippers seem to like cargo shorts. They are always baggy enough that their hands seem to disappear up their.
