PICTURES: 1970s Men’s Shorts Are A Totally Forgotten Fashion

If there’s one thing that most of us recognize about fashion, it’s the fact that it tends to come and go over the course of time. In fact, if you happen to live long enough, you may see fashions that were long forgotten from your childhood that returned with a vengeance. As much as you try to convince your children or grandchildren that you used to dress like that when you were younger, it is going to fall on deaf ears.

Sometimes, fashions that were a big thing just a few decades ago didn’t make the cut when it comes to the big return. The when you really stop to think about what those fashions are, you will likely recognize that they were better left in the past. That is especially true when you see pictures of those fashion trends and you recognize that what you thought was cool back then was really quite unusual.

One of those fashion trends is short shorts and they do make the rounds every once in a while. Of course, when most people think about short shorts, they are talking about fashion trends for women but the fact of the matter is, men were also victims of this fashion in the 1970s. It may come as a surprise to you but the shorts that men wore during the 70s were not only short, they were actually quite unusual.

As you look down through these pictures of men in shorts, don’t be surprised with what you see. It may seem unusual to you but for these men, it was the absolute best thing they could possibly wear. They were on point as far as fashion was concerned so you can’t really fault them for that.
