I am looking around for Burberry shorts and they dont really seem to have any. What types of shorts do you guys love/wear?

I like the clothes at REI. I don't know if you have a retail store nearby, but they always carry quality clothes. Their in-house brand is excellent, too. Their heavy canvas is very difficult to wear out, I've had pairs for years. If the styling suits you, you'll have a hard time finding a better pair.

I have two drawers of Quicksilver and Rip Curl board shorts.

Ive been lately looking for some board shorts, but i find them to thin. I have some really cool Union shorts (nothing like what they show on their .com, and their made in American), two pairs of Lucky shorts (love their jeans too), and a pair of American Eagle shorts. Those were the best of the best shortsbiggrin.gif

I wear shorts from mid April to sometime in November. I like pretty-much anything from Columbia Sport.

In my case I guess you're looking at a culture and identity issue, if not a full blown addiction. I've been wearing them for casual use, ocean sports, and construction work  for decades. Geez, I even buy most of my causal clothing in surf shops.

The sport shorts like hiking....etc. are heavy almost canvas-like material. The dressier ones are lighter wieght.

Surf clothing is a big deal out here on the Left Coast. I grew up wearing t-shirts and shorts from the local surf shops. (And yes, I can surf. Haven't done it in awhile. Can't pull off anything fancy, but can catch waves and stand up. smily_headphones1.gif) I don't think I could pull off the shorts at my advanced age (smily_headphones1.gif), but the next time I'm in LA, I really should grab a few t-shirts from the surf shops.

Also, X2 on Columbia. I've used and abused their shorts for years. They hold up.

Also, got a new pair of shorts today. At a local outlet, I found some from Hering for $12. It's a Brazilian company. Seem to be fairly well made, so I picked up a pair in charcoal. The jury is still out as to whether they'll hold up.

Good for you, i cant even do that (yet), but i bet its adrenaline filling. My cousins i think wear board shorts, since their out in Lafayette. Havent seen them in 5+ years, but they sure have grown up.
