    Whether you are tall or short, lean or muscular, there is a comfortable
    pair of shorts out there for you. It might sound rather foreign to some of you to have to select the correct type of shorts for your body type, the thing is, everyone on Earth has their own unique body type and when you discover yours, you'll find that shopping is a much more pleasurable experience and it's much easier to style yourself.
    Today, to help you better understand how to discover your ideal style of shorts, we're going to be covering five key components. Those are fit, length, color, material, and style.

    I would choose white shorts above even navy, as it works with literally EVERYTHING and is a very bright summer color. Did you leave them off internationally? On a related note, my favorite color of pants in the summer is also white for the same reasons. Cheers!

    As someone 6'2 and clocking in at 150 lbs when wet, shorts are quite a pain to find! I'm about a 30, and they're not common to come across in thrift stores.

    What if you have a pair of shorts that are 57 Cotton and 40 Polyester is that a bad thing? They actually fit me without a belt unlike the 32 waist ones that are cotton and needed with a belt. Been working out so sometimes my weight fluctuates.

      Men are allowed to be hairy, but I trim the excess with a beard trimmer, especially upper inner thighs as they tan less. It also comes down to hair colour vs skin colour. With some tan you can handle more hair.
