A Man's Guide To Shorts - How To Wear Shorts - Wearing Men's Shorts With Style

About this video

Centeno teaches men how to wear shorts appropriately by covering historical context, fit guidelines, length recommendations, and styling pairings. He argues that shorts should only be worn in casual settings during hot weather, and provides specific guidance on colors, patterns, footwear, and shirt combinations to achieve a polished appearance.

Key takeaways

  • Centeno recommends shorts end two to three inches above the knee and should fit close rather than loose to avoid an unflattering silhouette
  • Centeno argues shorts should be avoided for business or formal events, and advises against wearing patterned or memorable shorts repeatedly to the same gatherings
  • Centeno recommends pairing shorts with polo shirts, lightweight button-ups, boat shoes, loafers, or canvas sneakers, and suggests avoiding visible socks and sandals except at the beach
