I do. If I have something I have to be business casual for, I'll wear them. it's dressy compared to the jeans I normally wear to work.

I have seen them several times...

If I remember correctly Ocean Pacific and I think more recently, Nautica made those....

I mean they are like the hottest material known to mankind and yes, great in the winter...but WHY would you want to wear something made from corduroy material in warm weather????

Just wait til it gets warm again....

and just pay attention...

You will probably see that one person....

and WTF will come out again....

That more or less was my expression when I saw them...

Worst was when I was in Florida (this was in the mid 80s BTW) and this guy had on a pair of tight @ssed orange shorts....

Messed my head up......

Back in my youth, it used to be fashionable to wear courd shorts with tights underneath in the winter... but some "fashion trends" are meant to die and be forgotten... that would be one of them.

We did that a lot in the early 90's. What was even better, is if the tights matched the corduroy shorts, paired with a cute sweater... *LOL* What were we thinking?

If you do, you'll probably get a picture of my first boyfriend wearing them. Man, he sported these things ALL THE TIME. They were Ocean Pacific.

Thank you again, Mom and Dad, for NOT telling me what an a-hole you thought he was which would have made me do something rebellious and stupid, like marry the dork.

In the 80's, I was the ultimate preppy girl - I remember doing this then. What can I say? It was Highland Park...

The matching corduroy vests that went with the corduroy shorts really made the outfit.

I never wear any item of men's clothing. And just because I could wear something from the junior's dept doesn't mean I should...so the trapeze coats and babydoll tops can stay right where they are, waiting for a nice little 14 year old who will love them and treat them right!
