As summer approaches, the warm weather is gradually making a comeback. We'll be dropping the many layers of clothing we've been wearing to feel more comfortable. Gone are the coats, sweaters and pants we wore outdoors, replaced by a t-shirt or shirt accompanied by a short. While these garments make you feel much more comfortable, they do have one shortcoming that we often hear about: it's hard to match them and achieve a cool look. One piece in particular is criticized: shorts. 

So let's see how to take on a look with a men's shorts and give you our advice on how to stay on trend this summer.

How to wear your Men's Shorts

It's not easy for many people to wear a short. It has very little fabric to make it a real fashion statement, and shows off legs and thighs that are normally hidden, which doesn't help you feel your best. So the first thing to do is to take a good look at the length of your shorts. First of all, you absolutely must avoid wearing men's shorts that are too short. If they reach mid-thigh or even shorter, they'll give the impression of a swimsuit or underwear, which won't make you look your best. On the other hand, if they're too long, you'll look like a pantacourt rather than shorts, which is currently impossible to wear if you want to look cool. So make sure your shorts are knee-length. 

Pieces to wear with a short streetwear look

You can actually match your short with many pieces, but it is true that certain types of shorts, such as the cargo shorts or jean shorts offer additional possibilities. 

First of all, there's the shirt, which can also be worn in several ways for a different style: closed and in classic shorts, or open over a t-shirt with cargo shorts. If you want to reinforce this streetwear shorts look, we advise you to opt for lightweight pieces with streetwear accessories such as a cap or panniers, which you can find on our website.

You can also simply wear your cargo shorts with an oversized T-shirt, which will stand out naturally. Finally, to reinforce the streetwear style, you can wear a pair of shoes, preferably sneakers.  

How not to wear your shorts correctly

Here's a quick rundown of the mistakes you shouldn't make when wearing a short. As for footwear, avoid high shoes if you're going for a casual look, and the same goes for high socks. If, however, you absolutely must combine these two pieces, we advise you to go for a sports-inspired look rather than a casual style.

Last but not least, because it's important, look at how far your pants fall to ensure the right fit. Also pay attention to the cut, depending on the style you want.
