Trousers Get The Axe

Spring officially hits this Friday. But heat plus men's work wear equals uncomfortable. Designers' solution? Trouser shorts in varying lengths and prices. For the sartorial risk taker, brands like Acne and J. Lindeberg offer tailored short shorts in formal-ish black and blue hues. For the more conservative dandy, bermuda length shorts by Dunderdon are the perfect long trouser substitutes. And thanks to global warming, you can wear these shorts long past the end of summer.
