There are cool shorts?

 

[nicelynice]

They're all bad, with LUC being the worst offenders. If you don't like RO style, grab a pair of Nike shorts and say screw it til the weather cools down

 

[sinnedk]

I am not against Nike, just hoped there some from the brands discussed

Where is the man of the hour, @wormwood? Are you running away from all this? Why can't you provide real tracking or honest answers? It's been over a week and everyone's waiting for their answers.

Layer-0 sail hemp pants in 5P style. Finally

 

[docdocgs]

Great pair, @uzairh ! i just got mine. VERY comfortable; great fabric. I didn't ask the retailer, but do you know from where the fabric is sourced, by any chance?

 

[uzairh]

The fabric is from the sails of the famous Italian ship: The Amerigo Vespucci.

 

[onijo84]

Would it be right to say that his 5P style trousers made of cotton canvas is of similar material?

 

[uzairh]

/\ very different fabrics.

I have the canvas in grey/green (size 50) and I haven't really been able to wear them due to the calves being so damn tight (any offers please hmu). Doc, how do the calves feel on the hemp sail pair?

 

[docdocgs]

Hey Alex, the canvas pants are tight on my non-potato farmer calves, but not so much in the sail hemp. My calves are a bit on the slim side of average, and there is decent room left, maybe 1.5-2" of circumference, in the sail hemp pants, whereas I can feel the tightness in the canvas pants. Hope this helps. Oh, and ankle sneakers incoming. Psyched.

And @onijo84 , the sail hemp is more linen-like, breathable. The canvas is more, well, canvas-like (tighter weave, stiffer).
