The Rock, Harry Styles, Zac Efron, and many other male celebrities all have something in common this summer. They’re walking around in men’s short shorts. It’s been trending since The Rock posted a pic of his gigantic legs in pair. But most men have neither the legs nor the rears to pull off short shorts.
If you have some definition like quads that bulge a little, then you can get away with something that goes to halfway between your waist and knees.
Otherwise, there’s a reason they and other fashion fails like chest hair sticking out the front of a disco shirt died out 40 years ago.
I will give coaches shorts, the ones with the giant elastic waist band, a pass. They’re more function than style.
