sneakers: Vans | backpack: Poler
Wear it well: Don’t be afraid to play with color in your chino shorts outfits. Try going bright with a mix of yellows like the above look.
It’s easy to keep things balanced in the rest of your outfit since the shorts provide a subdued neutral to anchor your look.
FRIDAY
Wear it well: Yes, a boat shoe! You know Team SG loves Birkenstock sandals for guys this summer, but there’s just something so subversive about pairing back a boat shoe to an outfit with this skater vibe.
I especially like how the black feels a little less expected than brown while maintaining that crisp, clean feel of a topsider.
And don’t forget the sunscreen!
Shop our favorite khaki-colored chino shorts for guys this summer:
And a couple standouts…
Why we like them:Under fifty dollars for a pair of shorts that wash up surprisingly well? What’s not to like?
Why we like them: The fit and feel of these Bonobos shorts will remind you of their Weekday Warrior chinos. You’ll look put together without feeling too dressed up.
Wear them in chino shorts outfits like a polo shirt for a “rich guy in an ’80s movie just getting off work from his country club gig” kind of vibe.
