Today, I'm discussing a men's summer-style essential, specifically shorts. You don't want to look like a dork wearing them, so I will cover some of the biggest don'ts. First, I want to get some things out of the way. Yes, I shave my legs, but don't comment that I'm gay because I shave them. Just stop it. The second thing is that I have a small calf. I am super insecure because one is smaller than the other after I ruptured my Achilles tendon about 15 years ago. No matter how many calf raises I do, it's always going to be smaller. Last, the best shorts, in my opinion, are from Cuts. They also have fantastic tee shirts, henley's, long-sleeve tees, and polos. Click and use my code ALPHAM20 for a special discount on your entire Cuts order. Here are my tips for looking epically sexy in shorts:
Length matters. Don't wear shorts that are too long or too short. A five-inch inseam is going to be the shortest. I'm wearing a seven-inch in the video, which is the optimal choice. A nine-inch inseam is a bit longer, and nobody should be wearing an 11 or 12. The length you wear depends on how long your legs are and how tall you are. It's all about proportions. You need to expose about an inch to 2 above the kneecap.
Proper fit. Your shorts shouldn't be too baggy or too wide, and they shouldn't be super tight, either. You need to be able to pinch about an inch on either side of your thigh.
Crotch fit. Do not have a big and droopy crotch. To maximize your aesthetic, make sure you don't have a lot of room in the crotch area. You want a slim fit without being too baggy or too tight.
No pleats. The folds of fabric down by your crotch will make you look pear-shaped. Opt for a flat front. To dress up your shorts, you need to make sure you don't have elastic and then pair them with loafers. Check out the combinations I demonstrate in the video, where I change the look of the outfits quickly to create smooth, casual, clean, and sexy perfection.
Type of fabric. Nobody wants to see your wiener or whether or not you're circumcised. Make sure you wear underwear if your shorts are thin. And never wear basketball shorts outside of the gym. It's not a good look.
Aesthetic shoes. Do not wear running shoes when you're wearing non-athletic clothing. Choose a retro-style sneaker. The leather minimal sneaker works every time. I like mine with a gum sole, which gives it a retro flare. Choose between white, gray, or brown. Flip-flops can look fantastic but can also look terrible. If your flip-flops are super big, this looks horrible. Old and sporty also looks awful. Make sure your toes are not ugly and nasty, so take care of them. Two recommendations are: Rainbow makes the best flip-flops, and Birkenstock slides work incredibly well with shorts.
No visible socks. If you're wearing nice shorts with minimal leather sneakers, you should avoid socks. Choose no-show socks. This will help make your lower legs look longer and will also give a cleaner and more aesthetic look.
Avoid standard cargo shorts. Cargo shorts get a lot of guys in trouble. But you can find cargo shorts that are more fitted in the leg and not so baggy with pockets. Standard cargo shorts will look really big and break the visual line from your shoulders to your feet. The heavy fabric also doesn't look very good either. You need to find a fabric that's comfortable and breathable. Stretch is also advised. - Навчання та стиль

Videos are starting to feel like I'm watching unskipable ads.
That is why his content is free you donut
@@Geese4lifedoesn’t mean the people will keep tolerating it lol
@@Mark-eu6mc Cool, then go watch the non-existent fashion advice videos where there are no product endorsements. Tell me when you find one.
The loafers with shorts is ridiculous looking in my opinion, one of the worst looks someone can do
if you wear shorts you ARE dressing casually. Please folks, if you dont look like an alpha.m. skip shiny loafers with shorts.
I totally agree! I love my sandals! ‘ sneakers like sketchers
Hi
The lofas looked horrible tbh. Maybe it was with what you had on.
I’ve realize many moons ago that I’m doing just fine buying and wearing what I want and like.
Then why are you here ?
To leave my comment.
@@mrpookieallredthanks for the update.
@@jeneraljax29 anytime
So you look like a dork?😂😂
Nah alpha it’s a no to loafers and shorts
No is a fucking word Jesus Christ
@@perrycoffey5410cheese n rice
Makes a video about not looking like a dork wearing shorts and then wears loafers so he looks like a dork wearing shorts
That's not true at all the length of your shorts also determine on your leg size gentleman don't skip leg day. Never I mean never wear loafers
So this was a commercial....well played Alpha. Well played.
Lol every video of his is a commercial. That's what he does
@@alexp601 He integrates endorsements into his videos is what he does. The dude talks about fashion and grooming for a living. Of course he's going to integrate endorsements into his videos. He'd be stupid not to.
@@kommisar. Yep I know, I’ve been watching him for years. Your comment and my comment said the same thing.
@@alexp601 Not exactly. His videos aren't commercials. They are advice videos in which he integrates an endorsement to help support himself. It makes sense for him to advertise some product that relates to the subject he's advising people on.
@2:40 I see the pump has made Alpha comfortable enough to strip, or the sponsor paid enough for him to strip lol
Great content as usual. What mic are you using? The sound quality is amazing
Flip flops should only be worn if you’re near a body of water
OR if it's very hot outside. If it's very hot I'm not gonna wear shoes, I need my feet to breathe.
Nah, they’re my every day casual wear in the summer.
You clearly have never lived in a hot climate then. Flip flops are great for anywhere that it's hot. That's why they're worn ALL OVER THE WORLD.
Wear what you like and if anyone comments tell 'em to fuck off ..... instant cool
Are we in a bar and you’re 40yo overweight British dude?
Better yet, just tell everyone to fuck off before they say anything
@@alexp601yeah buddy
That's a good attitude if you want to continue having terrible fashion sense. "I'm perfect as I already am." Sounds like your typical "everyone wins a trophy" lefty.
@@kommisar.Sounds like ur a follower not a leader
You did a really great job, thanks a lot for sharing! 👍😄👏
Great guide to shorts.
00:00👖 Don't wear shorts that are too long or too short. Find the right length based on your height and leg proportions.
01:14🛡 Avoid wearing shorts that are too big or wide. Ensure they fit well without being overly tight.
02:06💼 Steer clear of shorts with a baggy and droopy crotch. Opt for ones that fit properly for a more aesthetic look.
03:38🔑 Skip shorts with pleats. Flat-front styles are more flattering and contemporary.
04:01💡 Avoid shorts with elastic waistbands if you want a more formal or dressy appearance.
04:56👟 Choose appropriate footwear with shorts: minimalist leather sneakers or Birkenstock sandals work well.
06:01👞 Refrain from wearing slippers or athletic flip-flops outside of the gym.
07:15🧦 Opt for no-show socks or go sockless when wearing shorts for a cleaner and proportional look.
09:27🩳 Don't wear overly bulky cargo shorts. Look for more fitted and modern styles if you prefer this type.
09:52👖 Avoid heavy, non-breathable fabric shorts. Opt for lightweight and stretchy materials like those from Cuts.
Thank you. Please comment more to help move to this comment to the top!
I feel you bro I had a injured knee from playing basketball in high school my left calf is a bit smaller than my right .
I need a shoehorn like that
Uniqlo makes the perfect shorts. Fit, drape, stretch; all there at a great price . Highly recommend.👍
Not the loafers. You should interview the haircut girls about them. I say it will be a nay
People watch for style, I watch fir laughing 😂 😂
Aaron is clearly not skipping leg day. Still got good wheels
As I got older (59 now) the hair on my legs fell out. I frequently women telling me they’re jealous because my legs are so smooth. 😂
This is the type of videos , I like. Keep them coming Alpha. Great work
The shoe horn looked like a sword to at first :D
Aaron, what size shirts are you wearing? I know you’re 5’6” and the length fits you well. I’m 5’8”, 165-170 and Cuts shirts always seem a tad long on me (about 2” too long). I wear an L or even XL in Cuts shirts.
watching this channel is like, Ads from UA-cam followed by Ads from Alpha m.
When he pulled that one leg up it actually looked better shorter 😅
I love wearing my sandals and sneakers! That’s it
My cargo shorts are Lee! There ones that are so freaking thin! I
Miss the old videos. This is literally the Home Shopping Network. Everything is an ad!
I’m an electrician and my knees are red and f’ed up from being on my knees in crawl spaces and uncomfortable conditions so wearing shorts like that are out of the question.
Dude I have the same problem. I ruptured my Achilles and it is 1/2 inch smaller than my good one.
Your calves look great, man! Don't sweat it
This guy dresses too preppy
Someone’s a hater
@@AllanRochez idaf
@@MrSuperj1onetypical ignorant American comment how about you actually care
I'm sure you look 10x worse than him. "Preppy" is a t-shirt and shorts?
I wouldn't say preppy cause prep is ivy league style. His more of a overly casual GQ style. Eh, It nice "sometimes.
I’m not opposed to loafers but not those loafers.
Good luck trying to find non baggy, form fitting cargo shorts. A company could make a killing filling both roles in 1 short.
That sounds like a good business idea.
Dude cracking me up with the meat reach.
love their joggers, just disappointed their shirts run small. I wear XXL in just about everything, but Cuts just doesn't work for a bigger guy
Action will remove the doubt that theory cannot solve !!
What do ya recommend if ya want the sockless look but don’t wanna ruin your shoes and have sweaty feet?
Most of the no-show or shoe liner socks are usually quite thin and won't show above your shoe line. Try those out.
The higher the sock the downer the …..
Tell me this to my face in this texas heat!
I'm still stuck between 5" and 7" inseams. I'm about average height and somewhat slender build. What do you guys think?
A loafer - which is on the formal side of the spectrum - doesn't mix with casualwear like polo shirts and shorts.
And flip flops look horrible, even with trendy shorts. Just wear some open sneakers.
One rule I’ve always gone with that I heard a long time ago is “short shorts, oversized shirt” trust me… 👌🏽and long shorts; whatever 😭
No one talks about Shoe liners as an alternative to socks, and it needs to be in the conversation for sure. A TRUE, no show sock, as opposed to an ankle sock.
Check out darn tough socks, smart wool and duluth trading Co. All have good options for no show socks.
I think that's what he was referring to, at least based on how he didn't have any socks showing.
Obviously you just need some sort of calf pump to get those boys swollen up to an acceptable size.
Always Dickies loose fit shorts !
Those look absolutely horrible. Keep being a bad dresser.
You got to grab meat! Not fabric! 😂😂😂❤
Don’t skip leg day. Ever! Also no shorts longer than 5" inseam
As you've said before, wearing all black is a pretty simple hack to look more alpha
Sure but in the summer, an all black look feels a bit off
@@alexp601 I suppose that's true
I wear jean shorts mostly.
I always just wear boxer shorts outside
That’s what I wear
Cuts polos are the best on the market
Bro i think we're thesame height, I'm 5'7😂😂 very short but in my country, that height isnt a problem except you come across a taller guy and your ego is burst
RAINBOWS!😀 🌈 Lifetime warranty 😳😁
I am 6 foot seven so 11 inch shorts leg is fine by me
I like shorts, theyre comfy and easy to wear
Loafers look rediculous
2:40 woof
I'm covering a scar,so a little longer here
Are cuts în Europe?
1:29 she said that
More manly sandals are OK if you’re gonna be involved with water or the beach
So dude shaves his legs?
lmaoo ya let me spend $130 on shorts and $90 on one shirt!!
Fr tho
@@logandaggs0915 literally on the site rn just to see and i have 2 shirts with a total of $168 🤣🤣
Yeah, one thing about Cuts is they look nice but they are severely overpriced. Their t-shirts I believe start at $78, which is ridiculous for something that's very basic, plain and made of cotton. I can find very decent dress shirts for that much or even less. A few videos back Alpha also showed off some sort of jacket which I believe was suede from Cuts. I looked it up and it was $600. That's what you can expect to pay for a custom leather jacket in a brick and mortar store, but I would never pay that for an online jacket made of suede or whatever.
Booom booom boom
Dammit cuts they don’t have 5 inch shorts ughhh
@alpham Any chance you could do a full-length video of yourself getting a shampoo and haircut?
6:42 NOT TRUE! I have a friend who's always looking at my junk. She's cute, but I'm not interested, and she knows, which is why I think she looks.
Flip flops are a no.
Some of those outfits looked really dorky
Flip flops, Sandals ?!? HELL NO !
What the hell is wrong with flip flops and sandals? They are great footwear.
Watch this in o.25 speed. 1:10 / 10:45
Turned off this video soon as you took off your shorts and grabbed your little AL
Alpha, what do we do if our shorts are the right length but we are a really short guy, 5’3, and our t-shirts are too long and cover most of our shorts and looks like a damn dress? I can’t afford to have shit tailored just for t-shirts. Is there anybody out there that makes t-shirts for short guys that are not long as hell?
Try 5" inseam shorts for starters. Make sure they don't sag on your hips either. As for shirts, wear a smaller size, duh.
@@kommisar. The size of the shirt is fine. It is the length of it. If I go a smaller size then the shirt is not going to fit me at all. 🤦🏻♂️
@@joshhibbs_nola Then you must be quite overweight for someone of your height if you can't find a shirt that fits you. You're going to have to accept clothes aren't going to look good on you if you're obese. All the more reason to start eating better and working out.
@@kommisar. It is not a weight issue. Also I am losing weight and eating healthy. I skinny, short, man would still have the same problem because it is the length of the shirt.
@@joshhibbs_nola You claimed that your shirts are too long. Well, if you got a smaller shirt, that would make the length shorter, but if you're now saying a smaller shirt means they won't fit, then that means you have to buy a larger shirt for your larger torso. An XS shirt is not designed to fit on man of average height who looks like a twig. It's designed to fit on someone with a smaller torso, which includes narrower shoulders. Besides, I'm looking at your picture and you do appear fat.
Dude shaves his legs remember that when you take his advice😂😊😅
Dude you shaved your legs everything you have to say in this video as a man loses all credibility now😂
The black loovers are not a good match for wearing with shorts because actually it looks like your wearing high hill shoes 👠.. I cant get with that look
Like it all except those loafers are awful
The views are down….
I live in the DC area. On a Saturday night downtown, the guys straight and gay, are wearing tight hoochie daddy shorts.
Sorry man, you got me on this one…. I mean, I’ll wear swimming trunks that end just above the knees but, there’s no way in hell I’d wear shorts that end an inch above 😮 my knees let alone 2. Sorry but anything 0.005” above the knee is man-child status lol! Might as well add High* Socks, and dress shoes. That’s like, lederhosen w/ hosenträger territory man… if I wear shorts, it has to be baggy that cover the knees, has to have side pockets for qty (2) mobiles, a wallet, a keychain, the AirPods, some gum oh and, definitely a set of USB-C cables.. If I cannot rock these, then, a nice chinos with low socks and some light, comfortable shoes and a nice fitted polo shirt. In this case I’ll take 1x phone in the pocket along with my keyfob (only), my DL and my AMX and I am set. I leave the rest of the stuff in my glove box. Tell me I am wrong…. 😂
(Great content by the way!!)
Yes, you are 100% wrong because having shorts that go to the knee or past make your legs look shorter and the rest of you look small. One of the main objectives in fashion, particularly when it comes to sizing, is to make your body look proportionate. Wearing shorts like that makes your body look disproportionate, and I find it odd you think doing so makes you look more "childish" when there are plenty of kids who wear clothes too big too, because most kids don't have good fashion sense either. Also, just because a short is shorter doesn't mean the pockets are smaller. If you need to carry all that crap on you at all times, you have issues.
@@kommisar. I am 6’4” and wear 34 long jeans. Definitely long legs but my torso is average I guess.. Also, I am in IT, so technology is a crucial part of my daily life so yes, I do have issues. That being said, I’d rather look like a geek as opposed to a 40 some year old man child who had just escaped from kindergarten. Thanks for the comments tho
@@tesladiesel2420 Why are you talking about the pants you wear now when you were just discussing the shorts you wear? You work IT and can't read the comment you wrote right above? Sure, buddy, sure....
Also, it's a well known fact the people in the tech industry aren't exactly known for having a good fashion sense.
@@kommisar. I am talking to someone with IQ or room temperature..(?) do I need to really explain to you why I mentioned pants size? Pants length 34 was a code for dude! I don’t have very good fashion sense I admit - I just make a lot of money. Take an IQ test, figure out how you can improve your conversation skills. Thanks man, stay cool.
@@tesladiesel2420 It doesn't matter how tall you are when you are talking about how you wear your shorts too long. You could be as tall as Shaq. Having your shorts at just above knee level is still too long. He discussed this in the video. Furthermore, you claimed with having shorts shorter than that makes you look like a kid. You're the one who evidently needs an IQ test.
I've been watching his videos with interest for many years and I've always been a fan. But, what the fuck was that stripping?
Throw on some Nikes or Converse bud
All great advice from Alpha but I have to say dudes don’t look good in Birkenstock sandals.
Flip-flops do not look good on guys. They look a lot better on women.
Agreed! Flip flops are feminine footwear. Also, dudes don't do the partial tuck in the front with a shirt.
You need to wear them to the beach though. Or water shoes, I guess.😅
Nah, flip-flops rock on guys. And so easy to slip on.
Not sure you’re the fashion gatekeeper we should be following
Every dude wears flip flops or sandals. There's no reason whatsoever why they would look better on women than men.
Flip-flops rock in the summer. Near a beach or not.
Those shorts looks awful on you alpha. the legs looks way too flared.
Hey Alpha, you made your shlong bigger by pumping. How about calf implants? That could be a future video!
I wear a polo..7in inseam shorts and loafers with no show socks oh and a panama hat
Got news, alpha. Those shorts you gave on are dorky. Too long.
no socks 🤮🤮🤮
Ill always love cargo shorts. I dont guve a crap what anybody thinks.
Damn this dude fell off. Good to find that out though. He was always a bullcrap peddler
I just went to Walmart and bought some cheap $10 jeans and cut them. I’m so punk and I don’t care
Jean/denim shorts?
Why are you always yelling? Are you deaf? 😂
Your choice got some gay instinct's
