More than the actual shorts, I seem to have trouble finding viable options of footwear.

A year ago I'd be fine with boat shoes or vans, but I'm at a loss nowadays. Please no suggestions for New Balance.

^keredog: wahts your price range? and you want casual shoes or sneakers? quoddy, yuketen for boat shoes, chukkas, moccs & common project achilles if you have money or superga/vans if your broke

In addition to those already recommended, Seavees are pretty decent.

They look sleeker than the Norse pair

I've found that most of the Wings shorts are long and narrow. My gingham cargo shorts from last spring were great, albeit a bit long. They look better with a couple rolls.

I prefer the higher pocket placement on cargo stuff. When they are placed lower on the thigh, reminds me too much of Military BDU's or terrible Abercrombie shorts.

I've been all over the Oliver Spencer Skinny Seersucker Shorts recently

Hey what are those last ones to the right? Brooks Brothers has one very similar, no?

Did you buy a pair? I was looking at the measurements at their web site and the waist seems to be bigger than the tagged size.

What do you guys rock on top with seersucker shorts? I have a pair but I usually feel like I'm clashing.
