New fashion trend for men....short shorts

source:https://nypost.com/2020/08/24/shorts...hotter-tiktok/

Shorts with a 5.5-inch inseam make a guy instantly hotter

“Things my boyfriend would look good in,” reads the screen of a TikTok video by user @GabrielleKraus. As a viewer, I expected the usual handsome-guy garments: a tuxedo, perhaps, or a muscle tank.

No. The video was about shorts. Really short shorts. Specifically those with a 5.5-inch inseam.

This summer, the video-sharing app flooded with young millennials and Gen-Z women and men alike lusting over guys in teeny bottoms. Videos compiling the hashtag #5inchseam have more than 23.1 million views on TikTok. Google searches for the trending length skyrocketed in July.

From the early aughts into the mid 2010s, men’s shorts appeared longer, sporting either 7-inch or 9-inch inseams. But in last few years, shorter styles are more en vogue. Blame Armie Hammer’s carefree hamstring-grazers in 2017’s “Call Me By Your Name.”

There’s a reason why these shorts can be so transformative for men: “Especially for a shorter person, it elongates your body. It does a good job of framing somebody,” Brooks said.

He’s had many requests to bring up shorts — even swishy athletic styles. Gym rats specifically “want shorts that hit right above the quad muscles, so they can see the results of them working out,” he said.

But Brooks warns that not all 5.5-inch inseams are created equal. “The inseam depends on where the rise is, it really varies by garment,” he said. Rather, look for the “safe spot”: “3 or 4 inches above the actual kneecap.

Testimonial

My boyfriend, Nick Valeri, is a little on the shorter side — 5-feet, 6-inches tall (we stan a short king!). I’ve been trying to get him in a pair of smaller pants for a while now.

I broke out a measuring tape and safety pins and got to work on his favorite pair of shorts, a 7-inch inseam pair from J.Crew.

He slipped on his newly 5.5-inch shorts and boom! Like the Grinch on Christmas, he grew a few inches right before my eyes. Instead of being swallowed by his clothes, he looked fit and put together. Who was this new man?

I recently went with shorter shorts for working out. Got tired of deadlifts tearing apart my longer shorts.

Will gladly keep wearing shorts that length, no reason to hide my joocy legs. Dudes that hate on these shorts or other dudes in general love this look

I wear my shots slightly above my knee. Over the knee and I look like a midget.

Only appropriate at the beach, IMO. Even when I wear them there, I've been occasionally hit on by doods at the beach bar, with my Fing wife standing right next to me. Like dawg, you know by how I'm speaking that I'm not gay, why you trying?

EDIT: Also OPs pic, with dood in sneakers, wtf?
