I want a pair of these kind of shorts for casual and school wear (still in high school).
Are there any brands in america that have similar stuff or am I going to have to order this overseas?

Thanks.

ps. what do you think about them? keeping in mind my age range anyways.

Those look like standard boardshorts or cargo shorts, depending on the material. But for <$5, why not jsut order those?

shipping is 15 bucks, I can order 3 for 36 american, lowering it to 12 each.

And i can't read korean, so Im trying to get my friends to help me translate. They apparently dont have size options OR its super elastic, OR you have to specify size in your order, which I have no idea because I cant read their language.

Secondly, I like the look / material of these over current american cargo and plaid shorts because they are simple (and kind of look like what american apparel would make, except a lot cheaper ).

I think uniqlo also has cool shorts? but they are pricey arent they.

Uniqlo shorts would be more than $5 each, but they'd still be pretty cheap as Uniqlo has built its reputation (well, in Japan at least) on good-looking, but cheap clothes.

How about having a look at Lands End?
They quite often have clothing in that kind of style and they are normally quite cheap, particularly with items in the overstock section.
