avant le deluge

Im a man in a trance
Im a boy in short pants


apparently in 1982 in st louis, dudes were rocking the short pants and loving it! well look out boys...the flood is on its way back. this time though i think it will sweep across the nation. no seriously. what started in japan has now moved to europe and i believe on its way to the americas...

but before you start hiking you trousers up like huck finn boys, there are few important style details that require your attention and adherence.

1. no socks
2. oxfords or like the gentleman below, top siders, if you can pull of that nautical feel
3. let no less than 2" and no more than 4" of ankle show

and remember, these are not man capris...they are short pants and they are very chic if done correctly. i swear!
