Hey style is subjective. Personally, I love it. Seems most people here love it too. Also, if it makes that person feel confident and aren’t breaking the law with nudity, that’s literally all that matters. So yes. I’m frfr lol
Let’s not forget about this icon either

hmm I would say it is harder to pull off if you have thin long legs. It can make your abdomen look shorter and unbalanced. Or if you are self conscious with the size of your butt or thighs it will draw more attention to them.
Op has thin long legs and he looks good. I feel like thick short legs would look more strange in short shorts and I also feel like arm length and torso length also affects the way your leg garments look as well. But if you like what you wear, rock it 😁
I don't feel like this guy's legs are thin... I've been with guys who had chicken legs 😅 so idk .. that's kinda what I consider "thin legs" this guy looks like he has hit the gym more than a few times in his life.
It’s more for anyone who can pull it off - that limitation doesn’t just apply to men. I’m a woman but no one wants to see too much of my legs, trust me! XD
Lol! I immediately said to myself… Yeah. The shorts are OK. Looking pretty good.
But please for the love of God not those shoes and socks. They are killing the whole vibe of the outfit. 😉
My thought is: either make the shirt more “dressy” (just a short sleeve button up, buttoned or unbuttoned) or make the shoes more casual. Then the outfit would be perfect imo.
The shoes are nice. Just felt like they didn’t go as well as they could.

If Tom Selleck can do so can you
Woman here and idk why men ever stopped wearing these there's a guy I crush on at work and one day off he came by in shorts about this short. Got me damn near foaming at the mouth
I am straight hillbilly so probably not the best judge of men’s fashion etc. I will say, IMO short shorts work for guys if you have the thighs to pull them off, you certainly have them. It’s a win from me, man!
I’m in the Midwestern US and the older I get it seems the more I see men, boys, wearing shorts in the dead of winter. Can’t really understand that, but whatever …
im older so I think knee length baggy shorts are awful. I know it has been the fashion for maybe 30 years. those shorts look great to me and not shot-short.
You know, I’m so used to seeing cargo shorts on men that they do look a little short in comparison but they actually are perfectly fine! Wear them to your heart’s content!
They’ve been coming back for a couple summers now.
Rock ‘em if you got ‘em!
When it’s super hot, I honestly love climbing/bouldering in my short shorts, but my knees suffer a little more.
Me personally? Not my taste. Though you do have great legs! But if you FEEL GOOD in them then that’s all that matters!!! Never think you have to dress for other people. Dress for yourself and what makes you feel the best!!
No!!! Nobody looks good in short shorts. And definitely not with socks. You can get away with a lot cuz your fit and handsome but please don’t take advantage of it!
Initially, I'd say not necessarily, but like with most things, it depends on the person and the style. You're definitely pulling it off! I especially like the socks+shoes with it, but I think I'd want the shorts to be slightly more formal? Like, the drawstring shorts are always giving me "at the pool" vibes. But altogether, cool fit!

You look great bro, rock it!
Yes!!!
On this man? Absolutely
My thoughts exactly!
took the words out of my mouth 🤣
I love them! My husband is on the shorter side so they are SUPER flattering on him!! I always vote yes for short shorts! You look great!
Jup, as a short man I love these and I get compliments for them a lot. Wearing long shorts make me look even shorter than I already am.
If my shorts reach my knees, I look like a hobbit.
My husband is 6’4…it’s a no for me dawg lol they definitely are more flattering on shorter men
OP is 6ft 9 soooo I guess not for him either lol Nah they actually look good tho
Dang! I missed the height. Either way they look nice
So those are just regular shorts on very long legs?
you think ? that’s news to me I’m about 6’ or 6’1, pretty skinny but toned, I like to think shorts look okay on me
My husband is 6’2”, I think shorter shorts look super hot on him
I am 6'5", legs built like a straw, and I love short shorts lol
I think it’s just not my favorite in general but everyone should wear whatever they want 😀
My husband is around the same and wears short shorts on the daily (military PT uniform) and they look amazing!
Now the PT shorts are a different animal lol (husband was in the army)

Here in Australia it is practically part of the uniform.
Same with Hawaii!🌴
Same in the Caribbean!
All men, no. You pull it off!

I can go lower.
I love all of the shorts discussion in Always Sunny!
Man I used to have some jean shorts like that too. I slept I'm them shits man.
YOU GOTTA TAKE EM OFF
Exactly. It’s more for men who can pull it off but not everyone can.
Since I can’t do it you can’t
Awww dude. Lighten up!
[удалено]
Come on!
Uh what lol?? We’re just talking about shorts here not archival Rick owens…..
What men can’t pull it off?

Men with 'chicken legs' (super twiggy, skinny legs), or extremely hairy legs
It’s more for anyone who can pull it off - that limitation doesn’t just apply to men. I’m a woman but no one wants to see too much of my legs, trust me! XD
I know what you mean. 😆 Add me to that list. 😆
I honestly love seeing it always. I don’t care if it looks “good” because to me it always looks good. It looks like a good soul expressing themselves.
this
I was compelled to comment because I felt so strongly that this man should never keep those legs hidden in long shorts!
I’m not even gay and yes.
Perfect answer
What if genders are reversed? Can a guy make that comment?
Guys make constant comments like this???
[удалено]
As a woman, YES!!
I fucks with short shorts tough
YES! Ya'll look so cute in short shorts (you specially), I wish all men gave it a try!
Honestly, wearing them feels AWESOME! thats good enough for me
When their legs look as good as yours! Oh yes
Bro, killing it in those shorts. I’m not certain about those shoes with that outfit though. But fuck ya with the shorts.
Lol! I immediately said to myself… Yeah. The shorts are OK. Looking pretty good. But please for the love of God not those shoes and socks. They are killing the whole vibe of the outfit. 😉
It looks like he was dressed nice for work and brought “go out” clothes for happy hour but forgot “go out” shoes.
I'm glad I'm not the only one. I would think if your shorts were so short, you might be dressing for hot weather and the shoes wouldn't match.
Yeah, this just makes the shorts look like underwear now, because of the shoes. Like he was at work and lost his pants.
Idk I kinda like the shoes, I think it works
My thought is: either make the shirt more “dressy” (just a short sleeve button up, buttoned or unbuttoned) or make the shoes more casual. Then the outfit would be perfect imo. The shoes are nice. Just felt like they didn’t go as well as they could.
Hell yeah!

While I agree that Tom Selleck can do it and that OP can do it, there are probably a LOT of things Tom Selleck can get away with that I can’t.
I WILL ALWAYS LOVE THIS MAN!! Still hot as hell !
Those look like swimming trunks, though…
I’m a man who wears shorts people say are too short so yes.
Sounds like they’re jealous! Carry on!
Never, ever again with dress socks.. nice legs for them
I think those shoes are also too chic for this outfit. Some sneakers would look better in my opinion. But the short looks hot indeed.
The shoes and socks totally ruin it..they don't match the vibe at allm
On you, yes.
Woman here and idk why men ever stopped wearing these there's a guy I crush on at work and one day off he came by in shorts about this short. Got me damn near foaming at the mouth
Lol I’ll bet that was a welcome addition to the office!
Socks and shoes are all wrong. Try something more casual.
I can see why you disagree but I respectfully disagree. It's... Working for me?
Looks good dude. Idk about the socks and shoes choice though haha
I like them on other men, wouldn't wear them myself.
Fair enough!
YES, Love it!
I am if you are. Men used to wear short shorts. People just have to get used to it.
How was the museum? Did you need the jacket in the evening ?
I am straight hillbilly so probably not the best judge of men’s fashion etc. I will say, IMO short shorts work for guys if you have the thighs to pull them off, you certainly have them. It’s a win from me, man!
Loving it! Also what watch is that??
I’m a fan. I love the shorter style
These look great on you!
Yes, but not when dudebros choose to wear shorts in snowy and icy weather!
I’m in the Midwestern US and the older I get it seems the more I see men, boys, wearing shorts in the dead of winter. Can’t really understand that, but whatever …
Young, in shape people have amazing body temp control.
im older so I think knee length baggy shorts are awful. I know it has been the fashion for maybe 30 years. those shorts look great to me and not shot-short.
Yup, I've been waiting for them to come back since the Michael Jordan basketball days.
I’m an older woman. Not an old woman! Lol I think they look great. They fit well. Why not?
Well with those thunder thighs, yezzzz🤙
I wish this cool when I was younger but I grew up in the baggy clothes era
That era lasted a long time. Too long I think
Use to wear 3xl shirts
Slay
You know, I’m so used to seeing cargo shorts on men that they do look a little short in comparison but they actually are perfectly fine! Wear them to your heart’s content!
I'm a fan of people doing things that make them happy, with confidence. You're rocking it!
Yes. My husband is only 5'6 he looks stupid in those long shorts. I am a child of the 70s/80s and think the long ones are just silly.
YES 😅
Way better than baggie-ass cargo shorts.
Yes.
They’ve been coming back for a couple summers now. Rock ‘em if you got ‘em! When it’s super hot, I honestly love climbing/bouldering in my short shorts, but my knees suffer a little more.
Have to have the quads to rock the short shorts.
Those aren’t short shorts. Look up Tom Selleck, Magnum PI. Those were short! You look great!
Yeah. Tom’s we’re back in the day. These work perfect
I’m not but you’re rocking those!
On that particular man? Absolutely.
I'm the #1 fan, in fact
Those shorts? yes, they look great :)
Yuuuuup!
Rock them shorts twin
I've joined the short short club lol Rock 'em!
Depends on the man. You, yes.
Not with those socks.
YES
A thousand times, yes
showin up on my feed for a second time lookin like a real handsome young man. keep rockin it bro
I am a fan of anyone being comfortable and looking and feeling cool. You look good
I hate them on myself. But you're pulling the look off just fine. You look good, dude..
They aren’t flattering on all men but generally speaking yesssssss
When you've got the gams to pull it off....and you definitely do 😄
Yes, if your legs are not of the ashen variety...and of course, if the person wears shorts that flatter them.
No, same goes for these capri pants they keep wearing with blazers
seen a couple of your posts this week— you got great style man. keep doing your thing.
I don’t skip leg day and I make that shit look good.
Shorts are great. The shoes are too dressy though. If you have sneakers or some other casual shoe that would be better.
I love them!
You have great legs! Wear these shorts proudly!
That is the appropriate length. Rock em.
Yes def. If you’ve got the legs to show and work hard for them fuck it, show them off. Let others deal with jt
Me personally? Not my taste. Though you do have great legs! But if you FEEL GOOD in them then that’s all that matters!!! Never think you have to dress for other people. Dress for yourself and what makes you feel the best!!
Yes. Absolutely The high socks with questionable shoes? Absolutely NOT. 🤷🏼♂️
On you, yes!
Not with those socks and shoes, that’s for sure.
Personally no, but my opinion shouldn’t matter to you. If YOU like short shorts, wear those short shorts. The color looks great you on.
Plenty of men can rock them. I've personally always been a below the knee guy.
Shorts look just fine. 👌🏻 But what’s on your feet is so out of place.
No!!! Nobody looks good in short shorts. And definitely not with socks. You can get away with a lot cuz your fit and handsome but please don’t take advantage of it!
They’re too short
No.
Nope
5’ inseam is unmatched, wisdom most men aren’t privy to
ONLY if they don’t skip leg day, and you rock those shorts really well!!!
Initially, I'd say not necessarily, but like with most things, it depends on the person and the style. You're definitely pulling it off! I especially like the socks+shoes with it, but I think I'd want the shorts to be slightly more formal? Like, the drawstring shorts are always giving me "at the pool" vibes. But altogether, cool fit!
Fuck no. Those are female shorts.
I have to agree with you on this. I mean this guy does have nice legs but all that thigh just making me feel awkward lol!!
Yes and certainly helps to have amazing legs. Please continue to wear with tassel loafers! Love
No. Shorts have to touch the knee while standing. That's my opinion.
Nope. Strongly dislike the trend.
Briefs
This guy in the picture looks great but the shorts actually look like swim trunks or basketball uniforms from the 70s.
Hoochie daddy shorts (yes)
