bbi1 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Men's cargo shorts are hideous only if you have chicken legs or as Thais call them, frog legs. In fact, wearing any type of shorts is hideous if you suffer from the quite common chicken leg disease. If that's the case, get to a gym asap and pump those calf muscles before wearing any shorts in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbi1 Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Another hideous thing is skinny jeans or any skinny pants. Makes that person look really gay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pgrahmm Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 A lot of time the cut of the pattern....I used to have big thighs from playing sports, 29" (was really hard to find pants/levis) & they are about 3" less now = so not spindly.... But, I make sure to try shorts on now because some are cut so large it does make the legs appear small....If I find some I like I'll get 4 or 5 pair of different colors..... It's a real bonus to find some with one zipper pocket for security..... I mostly wear 3/4 length I found online that has a zipper pocket....They don't bell out at the bottom.....

swissie Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 Looking at the "cargo-pants" situation, Charles Darwins theory of Evolution must be questioned. No "evolution" has taken place as far as cargo-pants are concerned, otherwise we would be able to pack a beach-umbrella, a beach-chair and a small charcoal-grill into a pair of cargo-pants. There you have it! Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 I don't think they were very prevalent when I first moved to Thailand in 1989. I brought a few over from Banana Republic and found them great for traveling and trekking, but wore them out over time. I loved when the Thais started making them and selling them in tourist spots, but they are pretty shoddy ones. You can do much better for the same price in the USA.

marko kok prong Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 If you are over 30 ish,skinny jeans are a no no,women do not enjoy seeing a guys package presented like this well most don't,also not good for the sperm ,they tend to overheat.Back to the cargo shorts,it would be great if they could develop a back pocket like the Tardis in doctor who,then you could quite literally disapear up your own arse.

giddyup Posted July 2, 2017 Share Posted July 2, 2017 I find with the cargo shorts that if I carry too much in the pockets they tend to be dragged down so the crotch is about knee level.
