I got mine at a skateshop called Tilly's. Old Navy has some on their website, so I imagine you could find some in their store.

Skateshops are probably your best bet though. Or, maybe an Army surplus store, but I've never been in one.

I've never looked around to survey what everyone wears, but I decided to today and about a legit 80% of the dudes had cargo shorts on. :oldlol:

That's why I am puzzled by the vocal anti-cargo crowd I find on the internet. It's about a 50/50 split as far as yay or nay.

I really don't see what's so egregious about having a couple extra pockets on the side.

:cheers:

I'll be holding on for dear life to cargos as long as I live. They're just too comfortable and make me feel like a G for some reason.

Will rock them even if literally no one else is and people are telling me I'm way too old for them. I need to find a couple more camo varieties. No two camo cargo shorts are the same.


Tom Hanks probably feels the same way...

I fully support the pro gay rights movement and I wouldn't be laughing at you if you were an openly gay person. I'm assuming you're straight, and that's what makes it so funny when you post pictures of Lil' Wayne and Ryan Seacrest and call that "swag" :oldlol:

That was the first time I ever took time out to look and study.

I'm probably the Earth's least concerned about what others are wearing.

Jason Collins wouldn't be caught dead in cargos and probably wouldn't date a guy who wears them. The gay community is one of the most outspoken against them from what I was perusing online.

The way some of the anti-cargo crowd is acting, you would think it's as bad as wearing a fanny pack.

I think he's being anti-cargo just to troll.

It's way too mainstream in the outside world, and too many cool famous people wear them. There's no way that many people can feel so strongly opposed.

The pockets are badass like specially placed zippers on a motorcycle jacket. There's a military connotation behind it.

I thought it was the norm to wear cargo shorts in the summer until hearing otherwise on ISH... I've never thought of anyone who wore them to be a ****** because of all their pockets lol

I just don't see what's bad about them at all and they are very versatile as well. You can pretty much match anything with a nice pair of cargos(tees, polos, button down(short sleeve), v-necks, etc..)

I also view bermuda shorts the same exact thing as cargo shorts besides being more preppy and less comfy.

Cargos are sometimes marketed as bringing military to the streets, so the pockets are supposed to be seen as "badass" since knifes, grenades and shit are kept in there. It's what they represent as a stylistic accent.
