Shorts length - Topic of the day 4/8/25
When you hear someone contemplating 3-inches, or 5-inches, or 7-inches, you know that they are referring to shorts lengths. There are so many lengths to choose from, how do you pick? Do you want mid-thigh, or almost touching your ankles? Which length goes with what style?

either daisy dukes or 9” there’s no in between for me and my gender
it just takes a really particular kind of day for me to be comfy in those teeny shorts tho :pdead:
i agree i think with shorts you should be all in on small inseam or really long inseam
Wut
all my active wear is 5” inseam
my jort like 40k”
i don’t like 11in because it reminds me of those dumbass khaki bermuda shorts my mom + grandma would always put me in as a kid
they always looked so bad on me
my thigh really long so 11" for a guy lik eme looks like 5" for most of yall....
legs ❤️
5 good for me. I need more shorts, I only like ~2 pairs that I own
but fr i wear all of these inseams depending on the shape
shorter ones can get away with being tiny, but longer ones need wide

The shorter the better
shorts length far less interesting than shorts girth width
Im a very wide long jorts guy
A-shape is my love
long and wide for me, CDG shorts could fix me
I a like 5”inseam for my shorts, but they also have to be wide, not slim fit.
the other definition of skorts
i dig that tho
I grew up on big cargo shorts so have enjoyed keeping it to 7 inch chinos as an adult. I do feel torn between going for 5s to show off the goods, and returning to the big shorts of yore.
I do not wear shorts
5 if baggy, 7 if slimmish
30 inch inseam shorts, call them longs
You didn’t even list the best inseam: 3”. Sky’s out, thighs out baby.

Long and wide, short shorts out
daisy dukes or don’t even bother

I like wide and short
These would look worse if they were longer
Different lengths and widths of shorts work for different styles
Long wide shorts would not go with how I dress at all
I'm at work or id Photoshop pants on there as a counterpoint but ya valid
I’m just sayin
Big shirt short short is good
I just don’t think reducing it to ‘big shorts in short shorts out’ is worthwhile to the discussion because I don’t think it’s that simple
So the conclusion is that mid length shorts suck?
As with all matters the conclusion is
It
Depends
Shorts suck just wear pants
:texas:
everything sucks if you don’t have swag
Have you seen me
I have as much swag as dry toast
Good jort
i agree i like that the top is super long so i can pull them up and wear them like this or let them sit lower and get more jort action
Tiny is best, they didn't name them mediums
this is if they sit below the waist
I need a big fuck-off shin tattoo fr
replace "weave" with shorts https://x.com/TsMadisonNews1/status/1796148333431386361
length is important to me but less so than WIDTH
i don’t own shorts:) so idk
I like short shorts so my pale ass thighs can get a little color back in them
I'm a "just above the knees" guy. I'll play with shorter inseams, but never anything longer.
I have long legs so lately like 8.5+. 5 inches if I want to have a slutty day
Either super short like rugby shorts ot 9"
for me inseam is a construct (long pelvis) but right now the further away from the knee the better...knee height is aight but the shorts have to kick ass
