pgrahmm Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 (edited) Rarely wear long pants....Long international flights & formal occasions.....Have everything from Levis/cords/trekking to formal slacks available.... Usually I wear 3/4 length pants with cargo & zipper pockets (flat design, not bulky)....I have a good variety of colors....I have many pairs of shorts but very rarely wear them..... Cotton gym shorts with a t-shirt around the house....When it got chilly I wore some gym style nylon warm up pants around the house.... Never leave the house wearing a t-shirt unless I'm not getting out of the car..... Edited January 2, 2020 by pgrahmm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canuckamuck Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I wear trousers at offices, and in the winter mornings/ evenings when its cold, and if I am in Canada in the 10 months of winter. Otherwise I don't even know where they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lacessit Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 I wear shorts inside the house. Or less. I wear trousers outside because 1/ I have medical advice to stay out of the sun 2/ I prefer my knees unskinned if I come off my scooter 3/ I don't want to be arrested for indecent exposure.

Hey, are you outright trying to make a new low in the capability to understand? Who in the world has been talking about climate change on planet Earth??? I thought you were comparing change in climate between Thailand and UK in your post (#5), and that I replied to that one. You know, that means i was replying to what you were posting about. Unless you were not posting about climate change on the planet, neither was I. I sincerely hope I made you understand what you started talk about now.(As an extra: When you started the talk about climate change on the planet, you are stating that it has been changing for 4,5 billion years. I totally agree with that. I also have an explaination for you in form of a question. Have you ever thought about that the reason why nobody talked about it before, was that it had not reached a point that was dangerous? As we all know, mankind are sometimes very slow to react.)

richard_smith237 Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Shorts a preference whenever possible... The exceptions: - Going to Immigration or other govornmemnt office where deference to the institution is expected. - Attending weddings (wearing a suit) - When ‘posh noshin’ (going to fancy restaurants - rarely). - When riding my motorcycle a distance further than ‘nipping to the shops' - When flying to a colder country. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Traubert Posted January 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 2, 2020 Because when I see other westerners in the 'Pattaya Uniform,' tucked in t-shirt, shorts with belt on, gut wobbling over the top and calf length socks with sandals, sun glistening off their shiny heads, I shudder and swear on my breakfast croissant that if ever I see myself in a mirror dressed like that I'll join the Flying Club. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kinnock Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Every day I wear football shorts with a faded and beer stained, but still hilarious 'No money no honey' t-shirt, plus dirty trainers with socks that used to be white but are now a boho-chic grey - and Johnny Foreigner instinctively gives me the respect I deserve because in my home country they bury their phone cables, neuter stray dogs and obey traffic laws. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Monday Posted January 2, 2020 Share Posted January 2, 2020 Except when cold I would wear shorts most of the time but my uniform requires them. I always wear jeans or khakis to banks or offices even thought Thais wear shorts and flip flops to the land office and transport office. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post rabang Posted January 3, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) I am quite conservative about clothes and just think that a grown up man wearing shorts looks a bit silly. I wear them only at beach holiday destinations, and not always in those either, especially at night. I have also been told by locals that I look more respectable for not being dressed like a bum unlike many tourists who look like they just got out of a tropical prison.
