In Canada as in most other countries and alot of other areas stateside, capris' on men are passe, What we need here is to get the designers' as well as generate more interest among both sexes ( especialy the ladies telling their guys that they wnt to see their men wearing them) ad we'll have no problem making theese more Mainstream!!!

I beg to differ. I see them "enough" on men and boys still. I don't think the style is passe as you state. I do agree the article of clothing is hard to find in some stores.

I agree. I see some men wearing shorts that could possibly pass as capris, but I don't see too many men if any wearing actual capris.

Hey There. Well no matter if they're actually Mens LONG LEG SHORTS or Ladies CAPRIS, they'll look just as Marvy with Sandals and Heels (sans Peep-Toes which I can't stand really) now in warmer weather as they will down road with Boots in Cooler/Cold weather, whether Over-The-Top or Tucked Inside.

The long length men's shorts (similar in length to women's capri pants) are ok, they kind of bother me though. I am always looking for shorter men's shorts which are harder to find. When I see these really long shorts I am thinking "Oh great I want shorter shorts and they are trending LONGER".

I want shorts that are between mid-thigh and knee (not quite as short or tight as the early 80's men's shorts). I like to bare my legs when its hot outside, not wear shorts that rival capri pants.

Gramicci makes several styles of mid-calf shorts, for example: http://www.gramicci.com/Akos_Jam/pd/...00/p/1048.html
Gramiccis are extremely comfortable. I bought these for the knee protection because you're always bashing them into rocks when climbing.

As for short shorts, you can get as wild as you like. These fit me well: http://www.wickedtemptations.com/sb-sh965j8.html .

Look guys, I honestly believe that we guys should be able to wear low-rise short shorts in extremely hot weather or capri pants in the in-between weather so that we are comfortable and soforth!!! I love Capri pants and short-shorts!!!! As well as Sandals and "Sneeker Clogs"

Regards, Nick!!!

Hi all,

Are you talking of wearing them with heels or without? With heels the short shorts are better with a finer higher stiletto heel. If the capris is baggy it needs to be a shorter kitten heel style and slimmer tapered capris to the knee look ok with higher heels.

I find womens short shorts fit fine, capris are ok but can be too tight around the knee area.

Short shorts are the better of the two.
