Shorts for the office - Would You?

my shorts are kind of shiny purple with lavender pin-stripes and i pair them with an oversize pirate shirt
btw

for special occasions
job interviews
etc

lol grad school ;)

I work in a casual office -- some of the guys in the studio here spend the summer in college-dude cargo-short style -- but I have yet to really break the wall, even on my really "nice" shorts. I'm on the line, though. Give me a serious enough heat wave, and I'll totally show up in corduroy tennis shorts.

dude on the right - a junior partner/counsel or VP - is heading out early on friday from corporate douche office to the hamptons. that isn't what he wore in this morning.

dude in the middle - either a section editor or a summer intern - is on hour-plus bryant park lunch break from super-cool-fashion-publishing office

dude on the left is a sales associate at a broome st boutique and you have interrupted an important errand you old bag of a publication has no idea where he is or how he got into that outfit

Nabisco, I am eager to see shorts incoporated into the pretty 50s engineer look (or was it a mechanic?).

preppy! I meant

one reason i support this look is that i like the long-sleeves/short-pants silhouette

dude on the right is an 'associate merchant' at j. crew btw

yeah, i fail, lol. is my guess that far off of what j. crew is after? maybe they're more youthful. dude in the middle is apparently a branding consultant or something.

I'm at work. I'm wearing shorts. It's my first time.

Having done the whole thing lots of guys do with never wearing shorts for the entirely of their 20s, I am now of the opinion that it is good and natural for a man to figure out, by the age of 30, how to wear them in a way that's relatively appropriate and stylish.

shorts for work are fine.. I wear them sometimes, slim + just above the knee in black or navy (LOL, most everything I wear is black or navy)

Suck it, monkeys, etc.

I bought a pair of those michael kohrs shorts in saks, 50% off the sale price. Then I left them in a bar ;_;

^^ sounds like a fun night

seriously

nice shorts nabisco!

nabisco you look good in those shorts in your chamber of infinities

cardinal sin or not, both yesterday and today i have not changed into my jeans after cycling into work. and i liked it.

shorts should be an option.
I think folks who insist on an anti-shorts stance are kinda 'itt blogs instruct you how to be a man' from people who are prob not as stylish as they think they are.
and maybe they own a fedora or something.

I might pull the trigger on this later in the week.
