Short shorts for men all the rage in summer weather

Short shorts for men all the rage in summer weather

Who wears short shorts? Lots of lads, it seems.

New figures from Debenhams show that demand for men's shorts that sit at the top of the thigh, rather than at the knee, has shot up 156% in the last week.

Those are 20-inch shorts from waist to hem (that's not a leg measurement) compared to the usual 27 inches.

Apparently, it's down to celebrities like Niall Horan and Bressie showing off their legs. We never knew men were so fashion-conscious.

Debenhams is a UK retailer, so they note that that they've seen the biggest demand in Newcastle, Glasgow and Cardiff.

All together now:
