Do your jeans have more than 4 pockets?


Yep. But with certain cases on my phone, everythong comes out of my pocket when I'm trying to get my phone. I have OCD. I hate having too many things in my pockets. And I hate keeping my pocket knife in just regular pockets. Because they fall out and whatnot. So I like to keep them in a little pocket with a Velcro strap on it when I wear cargo shorts.

Or when I'm just hanging around the house or playing sports. Just comfortable when all I need is my phone and wallet. I care more about comfort than looks.

Your hubcaps are trashy. Am I doing this right (being a judgemental dick just for the hell of it)?

I occasionally wear them, but then again I wear what I want when I want, and don't worry about validation from others about what I choose to wear. Comfort and convenience trump fashion or style for me.


i never knew so many people just simply dont care about their appearance.

Newsflash: regular shorts are comfortable too, and you dont look like a sloppy schmuck in your wrinkly baggy arse shorts

I don't dress like a hobo. I even shower, shave, get haircuts and wash my clothes, but still don't care what others think. I prefer comfort and don't seek the approval of the fashion-savvy "men" who say "newsflash" to make a point. :)

My apologies for offending you with my preferences.

Edit to say I'm not singling you out to be an a-hole to, that's just my personality, and I'm feeling extra a-hole-ish this morning.

Shorts that aren't cargo shorts, aka regular shorts.

I carry two phones, a wallet, keys, and a knife every day. Add in a koozie and a snuff can on weekends and four pockets still work just fine.

When you wear shorts like Lucky Dog posted a picture of, I'd have to agree. I would not even consider those as cargo shorts, more like 12 year old boy at summer camp shorts. The majority of us that do wear cargo shorts do not wear any that look like those.

For those of you mentioning the 4 pockets thing, does that mean you put stuff in your back pockets in regular shorts? Do you have to take stuff out whenever you sit?

I don't always make use of the extra pockets in cargo shorts but they often come in handy with kids, going to the camp, playing golf (which I'm sure someone will criticize), or other life situations.

I'm 40 and slowly realizing that my not seeing the problem with cargo shorts along with thinking flat bill hats look stupid probably just means I'm getting really old.

This looks so much better.



I have no idea why this gets so much attention. I mean I'll admit to falling into the cyclical nature of arguing over this ridiculous issue. Why can't we just take it as it is, and realize that some people will just always wear cargo shorts, and the other people will just be better than them.

Who says they don't (check my profile pic)? I don't wear them all the time. I wear jeans 70% of the time. Or basketball shorts. But when it's 90° and I have some errands to run, I'll throw on some cargo shorts


So you have a picture of an arse on your profile pic and this means women like to frick who wear cargo shorts?



Say no more. I'm going to Mervyn's to buy 5 pair.

Never seen a plumber wear cargo shorts. A dude wearing cargo shorts looks like more of a man than a beta wearing regular navy blue/khaki shorts. I could care less either way. The only thing I would definitely never wear is blue jean shorts.
