Mens' Capri Pants?

I careless what they are called. I have several pairs. They are great for boating, pedaling around town, and chilling with friends at neighbourhood cafe.

When I was stationed in the Sinai the Australian and New Zealanders wore Capri’s all the time, I thought they were Nut’s! For me it’s pants for work, kilts by choice and shorts when kilts are not an option.

Capri pants for men - it must be the end of the world. Doomsday, yes.

Capri pants for men? File that, with all of the other items, under:

"The Decline of the West"....

I remember seeing them all the time when I was in Germany. I never thought they might catch on stateside. I dunno, I'm all for comfort, but I prefer comfort and style (ie the kilt) and I just don't like the way they look.

Rafa Nadal plays in man Capris quite often.

I always thought knickers were what the English called underpants as in "don't get your knickers in a bunch" meaning, I guess, the same as "don't have a cow, man".

We wore clam diggers as kids all summer long. They were great beach wear in a place as cool if not downright cold as Vancouver in the summer. I'm quite nostalgic about them, but I doubt I'd wear them all the same.

I must have known about kilts even before I knew about kilts.
I’ve always thought that if not full length then pants for men don’t look good if worn with the knees covered or lower.

Knickers were before my time other than maybe baseball or (US) football pants.
Even then, hose required.

Didn't you ever see Payne Stewart play golf? Payne always wore golf knickers.
