Which type of jorts first appeared on the fashion scene?

Did the urban (mid calf) style clear the path for the rural style often spotted at trailer park social events? Or was it the opposite? To me, the urban style of jorts seems more sincere. It doesn't pretend to be what it's not. On the other hand, the rural style comes across as an attempt to dress up cut-offs.

Just think if there was a spin off of cargo jorts vs non cargo jorts. Lol. Nvm. Jorts are just...well...not worth a thread. Not even sure where you can find them anymore. Kmart maybe? Where can you find one of those?

The status of jorts as a cultural artifact is all the more reason to dedicate a thread to them. I'm sure many reading this feel nostalgic right now.
