Shorts

Short Pants.

Without being to optimistic, I would say that spring has arrived to Berlin. Taking for granted that the weather stays like this, it's now time to start looking for shorts.

If you are in Berlin at the moment you can really feel that we have arrived. We made it. We have survived the harsh winter and spring is upon us. Just by standing in the sun a couple of minutes gets me thinking. What shorts should I get?

There are a couple of things to keep in mind when it comes to this. First (like always) it's a money question. How much do you have at your disposal. And then it's the obvious, how warm will it be and for how long. Lets say it stays warm for 3 months. and half of that rains away. That's still one and a half month of short wearing days. Which means that you're gonna need more than one pair. I mean you don't run around in the same pair of pants all winter, so why would it be different for shorts. At least five pairs would be ideal. But if you buy high-end stuff at 110-120€ a pop that is gonna be some money. Even if you get these clean Carhartt "Master Bermuda" shorts it still gonna run you 60-80€.

So going and getting shorts at H&M or any other store in that price range is a good idea. But if you still want to get just one or two pairs that are a bit more expensive, then just make sure that they are somewhat neutral. You don't want your one pair to be to recognizable.

APC, Adidas Original, The Hundreds and Cheap Monday all have nice shorts in their Spring lines. Click to find out.
