How to Wear Shorts This Summer?
How you wear your shorts is key. Too long on a short guy will make you appear shorter. Too short on a tall guy will just look awkward. Here are our top tips for how to wear shorts as a guy.
- There should always be 1-3 inches of skin showing above your knee. This will visually balance out your leg and make sure you don’t look disproportionate.
- Skip the baggy cargo shorts if you are a short guy and go for tapered shorts.
- If your shorts are too long, don’t feel you have to ditch them. Simply turn up the cuff 1-3 times until you achieve the desired length. You could easily sew them in place if you want to ensure they don’t slip around and unroll themselves. Cuffed shorts are also super stylish.
- Consider having your shorts tailored to get the best possible fit.
- Go sockless. Or, rather, wear socks that don’t show. Socks will visually cut off your legs in an awkward way. Plus, it’s just not a good look! Wear small no-show socks inside your shoes for protection and to keep your feet from getting smelly.
- If you wear colored or patterned shorts, keep the rest of your look subtle and understated. A loud color on the bottom should not be fighting with a loud color up top.
Now let’s look at some great options for shorts, as well as outfits you can create from the same!
