Jul 22, 2020Some of my gym shorts are wearing out so I ordered 2 new pair yesterday.
Since our grandson is here more and I am going less places that expect better dress, my gym shorts have seen a lot of use lately
My current supply has inseams in the 8" (20 cm) range, well above the knee but not really short.
Wanted to try something shorter so I ordered one pair with a 4" inseam and one with 5".
Will be fine at home, but don't know how it will work when I eventually get back to the gym. One of the reviewers called them the ideal work at home uniform. I suspect most of us would disagree and say that the ideal at home work uniform is nothing at all!

Got a new pair of 4' inseam athletic shorts recently. They are snug but stretchy, so there is little risk of accidental exposure without feeling confining.
When I put my phone or wallet in one of the pockets, it stretches down slightly below the hem.
Back in the 70s and 80s, I liked the look of shorts that were cut to show the bottom of the pockets, but I was never bold enough to wear them.ReactReply
