Cargo Shorts

By


Cargo shorts started as hiking and became one of the most popular shorts around. Cargo shorts are a nice alternative to your every day short. They generally are khaki colored however cargo shorts are made in various colors as well. Cargo shorts consist of a fabric generally with 4 or more pockets that are stitched to the outside of them. The pocket placement varies on the cargo shorts however they generally are on the side and bottom of the cargo shorts they also have a very distinctive flap over their pockets. They can be worn in a casual  or a dressier environment if you dress correctly.

Picking out cargo shorts for men

It is ideal to find cargo shorts that have a length that ends right around your knees. Any longer and it they start to look like a short version of pants. Any shorter and they could make you look fat and older then you are. Try to find a fit that goes right around your hips as it will look more natural and the overall fit will be better.

If you are trying to make your backside look better checking to make sure your cargo short pockets are not oversized is a good idea. If they are oversized your backside will look very funny.

When it comes to wearing shirts most will be fine. Wearing something loose fitting will work just fine however make sure is not to loose or to tight or you will end up looking funny. Also if you are not very tan try to stay away from those color shirts. Casual is always a safe bet. If you are adventurous with your outfit you could find a belt that will work with your shift and your shoes.


If you still have trouble picking out the right cargo shorts bring a girl with you and model them for her. She could be just a friend or a girlfriend. This would be a great chance for a possible date situation. Hopefully this will give you some ideas about cargo shorts and how to pick them out and not look like an idiot doing it.
