Jorts: Reloaded (1 Viewer)

No but if I'm following properly it appears the cutoff jean is in the process or already has received the seal of approval from the so -called fashion-conscious. This after they ridiculed others for their jean short wearing. By the way for what it is worth IMO the cutoff is way more gay than the "finished jean short"
I dont wear either, but give me a pair of cutoffs any day over jorts like this.

:lmao: so so bad.

 
Surely jorts are a big part of normcore right? Bet they are big right now.
I assume you mean store bought jorts. The cutoffs are firmly in the hipster camp. This might be the defining area between normcore and hipster. The denim divide.
So these are hip and better than the conventional Jort? Are you guys high?http://phatfriend.files.wordpress.com/2012/08/gecw14914292434e20029fcf6cf.jpg
theyre definitely gayer

No idea if these are "hip" nowadays, but dirtballs and hippies have been pulling off this look since the 60's. No one in history has ever looked good in the type of jorts I linked above.

More hip, yes. I don't know a know about better. I rarely wear jeans or shorts so the chances me wearing shorts made of jeans is zilch.

It is an interesting question.

Just brainstorming, but I think it has a lot to do with the type of people associated with each. Cutoffs are associated with not caring, which is always cool (even if you might work really hard to look like you don't care). It's a classic look, and is associated with relaxed situations (much like the trusy pair of jeans they used to be).

Jorts are often accompanied by a tucked in polo shirt, and white sneakers (cheap, uncool white sneakers). Sometimes even with socks far too long to be wearing with shorts. Instead of being cut off with a devil-may-care attitude, jorts are actually hemmed and that says a lot about the man wearing them. They are associated with a very bad nerdiness. Possibly, the only nerdiness that isn't actually cool. A sort of redneck nerdiness. I think rednecks being a big driver in early jort popularity also doesn't help the case.

Does "cool" or "hip" as we know it even exist anymore? I've read some articles and am starting to believe we now live in a post-cool world.

I think that is my ex-FIL.

I don't know...I just passed a group of black guys, which 3 of the 4 were wearing jorts and I never once had the urge to shout-out REDNECKS!

 
I just got me a spankin' new pair of jorts with paint splashes and rips. Levi's jorts. 569 loose below the knee. Liked 'em so much, I ordered another pair the next day. 511 slim, baby. All the way. 

I am rockin' the jorts this summer.  

:offdee style:  

:yes:

And I thought this was where we were going to sneak in yoga pants pics.  :sad banana:
The yoga thread became redundant once I moved to Uptown, Dallas.  My coffee shop (which is all like health oriented with mostly vegan options but thank god, still whole milk) Is within a block of Soulcycle, Pure Barre, Barry's, some foofie climbing gym and like three more.

OMG the level of talent is unreal

The local Kroger where I live is like Yoga pants heaven on Sat mornings!

 
I feel like (yeah, right, I know) I should bow gracefully out of the jort aspect of the thread and blend in with the yoga pants aspect of it, which, believe me, I'm happy to do. I hated watching that thread get the axe. And jorts on guys? No bueno.  

Ah, yoga, you and your downward facing dog farts.  

 
I cannot believe jorts are back in any way other than ironically, or by those trying to relive the 80s (ie, by rolling the bottom of a super tight pair).
Jorts, ripped and loose, destroyed and paint-splattered, go good with a nice one-color solid slub t-shirt or fitted rock band shirt.

Believe it.  I was in NY late last summer and saw quite a few "fashion aware" guys wearing them.    Not 80s baggy Wisconsin type jorts but slimmer tighter, and lots of white jorts are being shown.

When I frequent the south side ball park, we play the game Jorts as part of our pregame.  The premise is pretty simple, any time you see someone

Wearing jean shorts: Drink

Wife beater: Drink 

Combo: finish it 

I figure I’ve got to be drunk to watch baseball on the south side, might as well make a game of it.....it’s never failed to do the trick 

:nottrendy:
