Since the times of the USSR, many people have had an idea of what shorts should be: these are either black sports shorts or traditional cotton straight legs, as if cut off in the middle. Such shorts are seen by more than half of our men. This article aims to convey the idea of what fashionable shorts should be on our companions this year.
Most men still do not accept experiments with color and style, so the classic style will never go out of style. Straight shorts can have arrows, trouser pockets, but the main trend is cuffs. It is them that fashionable shorts can boast of, suitable for a shirt and a classic leather belt. At the same time, a bag or even a diplomat should be in the hands, preferably a hat on the head.
Colorful shorts
This season, the trend of prints has been preserved, moreover, new variations on this theme have appeared. Small checks and contrasting stripes have become especially popular. If earlier fashionable shorts were replete with Hawaiian prints or military-style colors, now classic colors and patterns are in trend - like shirt fabrics or suits. Fashion houses like Burberry, Prada and Polo Ralph Lauren offer short, mid-thigh,classic shorts - but how appropriate it is in urban conditions, the mods themselves will judge.
Speaking of colors, it should be noted that this season the designers preferred dark colors or pastel colors. Fashionable men's shorts are made in dark blue or burgundy, khaki or brown, as well as mustard that does not go out of fashion. But the door is open for lovers of rich summer colors: mint, orange, bright red and lemon shorts are must-haves in a beach wardrobe.
Every detail counts
In the finishing of men's shorts, pockets have always been considered the most advantageous element. Indeed, unlike women's, you can’t fantasize with rhinestones or lace inserts here. And thank God, but the lining fabric can be interestingly different from the main one, which is especially noticeable on pockets and lapels.
Fashion shorts entail matching belt: This summer, it is not forbidden to combine a leather belt with a massive buckle with light shorts in light shades. Also possible are elements of asymmetry in the cut of shorts, contrasting inserts, imitation of fabric under the skin or suede. You should be careful in choosing such fabrics, otherwise shorts will only cause discomfort in hot weather.
Swimming shorts
Of course, urban shorts are an important purchase. But don't forget swim shorts. And here the striped-checkered style comes to the fore - we return to the good old 70s, imitating underwear. From afar, such shorts will resemble family shorts, but this does not bother many of the stronger sex.
Hawaiian shorts are still relevant, although they are already rather fed up. But contrasting two-tone shorts are found in almost all sports designers: the lower part of the leg can be made in a completely different range.
Finally, pay attention not so much to style as to convenience. It is necessary to have a retaining mesh, strong ties, and pockets where you can put your iPhone and money before swimming: fashionable shorts should be not only beautiful, but also practical!
