by mohit Pathak Zobello

Shorts can easily be referred to as a man’s best friend as it is rightly put by some genius, “men are simple things. They can survive a whole weekend with only three things: beer, boxer shorts and batteries for the remote control”.

Thanks to the fashion evolution off lately, the expanse and horizon of the fashion world has widened immensely and fashion has redefined the rules of the game, revamping several old-style looks in a more modern, cool way.

Let’s have a quick look on how to pair the men’s most preferred piece of clothing in different ways for suiting varied times and places just about perfectly.

1.With a Basic Tee- This is a strictly no-fuss and yes, quite a predictable look to sport and has been the one staple attire for men from ages but how you can turn it around from looking unrefined or messy to stylish is the real catch here. First things first, choose the right type matching with your surroundings; for instance, if you planning to go on a date with your girl, go for chino shorts for men and pair it up with quirky quote tee and for night out with office colleagues, pair it with collared polo tee to add that pinch of seriousness to the look. Of course, keep in mind that the length of your shorts should be decent enough, ending just above your knees or to the knees to balance it right between casual and semi-formal.

2. With a Shirt- Now, we are talking blending together the two worlds of formal and informal wear rather perfectly; how good can you make a pair of denim shorts or even cargo shorts look when paired well with a nice, crisp shirt in striped or solid patterns. This will not just turn your usual shirt-pant combo from boring to classy but will also let you earn brownie points for moving out of comfort zone. Thinking of impressing your girl with your style, just play with it the right way and you will be centre of attention just like that. Don’t forget your favourite espadrilles either.

3. With a Blazer- This one’s rather daring but definitely worth the effort look; pairing a casual blazer or jacket over your Printed shorts is just not that common till now and is sure to make heads turn. This outfit looks super cool as far as layering goes and you end looking your quirky best; just pick a well-complimenting match and you are all set for a fantastic evening.

4. With a Sweatshirt/ Hoodie- Yes, shorts are no more just a summer staple for you can flaunt a pair of fleece shorts for men, even during the winter season as well. Fleece shorts come with a thicker inner lining, thus adding to the comfort and flexibility as well as being slightly warmer to sport while you are out running in the fresh chilly air. Paired with a sweatshirt or hoodie, shorts make for a perfect winter ensemble for hitting the gym or any other sports activity in the open.
