Why would you wear a giant pair of shorts that covers your knees and weigh ten pounds?
True. But did you ever realize all cargo shorts do not weigh ten pounds, and all cargo shorts do not cover your knees, and all cargo shorts do not need to "sag" and look like thug/redneck chic, or whatever "look" you are imagining. Some normal people wear cargo shorts that are normal, look normal, and they wear them normally.

six or seven inch inseam looks tacky


Totally depends on the person. I've got 7" inseam shorts that I love. I've tried on other's that I feel like a basketball player. I've got 6" that I'll wear on the boat or around the house, but can come off as a little short.

Based on these pics, and these pics alone, who do you hire for a job? I'm aware that it's stupid to make a hiring decision purely based on this, but if it's all you had to go on, who looks more professional and responsible? 


Depends on the job.

If I'm hiring for Perlis, I'll take the first guy. If I'm hiring for a bartender job, I'll take the second.

Neither look professional and one doesn't look more responsible than the other.

So are these expectable ?

They are not pass the knee, not extremly baggy, and the pockets aren't huge. Would this be ok to wear to a casual outdoors OT gathering or should I wear my nice jeans ?

Cargo shorts come in handy when you need to carry around all your Nickelback Cd's

I am honestly curious about this.....To those that wear cargo shorts do you really use all the extra pockets? Seriously what do you carry around with you? I would think most people carry a wallet and a set of keys and not much else.

I can't wear any shorts above the knees, and definitely no greek-trash looking tighties in fruity colors. Darker colors like cargo shorts typically come in hide my junk better, which is my biggest concern, no pun intended. But it's all about where you're going. I'm not going to roll up to Sizzler's in cargo shorts, I'm going to wear some jeans. Now if it's a quick trip to WalMart where if have to stuff my pockets full of things as I go.... well yeah, cargo shorts.

Why cant you wear shorts that fall above the knee? You find giant long "shorts" comfortable? You don't find a lighter weight pair of shorts comfortable?
