      that’s why i said they were like military pants but short lol

      it’s still the same style of pants and that’s still how they’re described, theses ones are just cut into shorts. military is just the term for the style of pants worn in dress uniforms. it doesn’t mean every pair of pants in that cut are used by the military.

        Isn’t that style of pant just called “slacks”?

        Edit: some other people shared some pictures of British soldiers in these shorts. So the British army may actually have a uniform with shorts like this, but baggier.
