itt "FUN SHORTS"

pleats will come and go, but flat fronts objectively look better

'objectively'

yeah pleats are so gross, so are those generously cut billowy style oxfords that Brooks Brothers and the like sell (JUST WEAR SHIT THAT FITS, DUMBY)

pleats can be cool but they also can get out of control real fast, sans pleats is def a safer approach

so i guess leave pleats to the experts is prob the best approach

i don't like pleats on regular cotton twill khakis because they just look stiff and wrinkly, but if you're talking about wool suit trousers where the fabric actually has a nice drape then pleats can look great

i have a tweed suit w single pleats and you hardly even notice them especially w the jacket and all

Based on my observations of people hanging out in the sun today, I can report that FUN SHORTS haven't caught on in Cambridge yet. Was tempted to vanguard a pair of these, but the shop didn't have my size:

dig the tropical feelz of the print but the inseam looks really long?

i was just thinking the other day about ~sept 2000 (when i first got to NYU as an incoming freshman) and all the stylish downtown dudes were wearing capris length pants

lol

what i mean is, what can we do to make sure that the man-capris silhouette never comes back into style

woah
