I need green retro gym shorts (male).
Anyone know where I can find some? I've looked over the internet and the ones I can find are not what I'm really looking for.

I'm thinking something like this...

6. My opinion? If you're solely going for the retro look, the women's/girls (on a man)
would do it best. If you have other requirements (lining, etc.), then I don't have a clue. : )

11. I'm thinking I could wear female retro shorts and I doubt people would know.
Just as long as the color isn't hot pink. haha

4. Try these keywords
Edited on Sat Feb-20-10 01:25 AM by blogslut
Drag Shorts

You could also try the search term "mini boxers -dog" but be prepared for a lot of bulging peen.

10. Yeah. I don't want anything too revealing.
So if it's tight, I'll move on.

Basically, it needs to be socially acceptable because I will be wearing them at an NBA playoff game. :D

12. I was wondering what on earth you were going to wear them to!
But won't your legs get cold while you enroute to the game?

P.S. If you find them and wear them, could you please post a picture of yourself here in the Lounge? I'd love to see the "finished product" of your search...

13. I plan on it...and it won't be for a couple more months.
I made a deal that if the Utah Jazz made the NBA playoffs with a seed of third or better I would wear short shorts to every game I went to (an honor to John Stockton, who was known for his shorts).

By then it should be a bit warmer out, hopefully! Though I remember last year it rained the entire time they were in the playoffs.

I'll definitely post a photo. :)

14. That ought to cause a bit of a stir here...
I'll have to remember to look for it!

P.S. Why did men stop wearing the short shorts they used to play in and start wearing the longies? As a female, I thought the shorter ones were more "interesting."

15. It's not the manly thing to wear anymore, I guess.
Who knows...I don't mind short shorts.

16. I don't think that "droopy drawers" are particularly "manly," or "womanly" either
come to think about it. Both sexes wear them for basketball.

It's probably more comfortable...

7. Oh wait! I forgot... Goodwill. (If you're lucky enough to be in a state that has good ones).
NY, for example most definitely does NOT qualify. At least in Hudson Valley/Albany area, that is. : )

17. Just be careful
that your wiener and balls don't fall out.
