Okay, so I’ve been seeing this trend popping up everywhere lately – short suits for men. And you know me, I’m always up for trying something new, especially when it comes to fashion. So, I decided to jump in and see what this whole short suit thing is all about.
First, I did a bit of browsing online. It looks like this isn’t a brand-new thing, but it’s definitely having a moment. I saw a bunch of pictures of guys rocking short suits at parties, and even some more dressed-up versions that looked pretty sharp. I thought, “Why not give it a shot?”
Next, I started looking for where to actually buy one of these things. I checked out some of my usual online stores. I wanted something that wouldn’t break the bank, but also didn’t look like it would fall apart after one wear. After comparing a bunch of options, I finally settled on a light blue linen blend suit with shorts that hit just above the knee.
While I was waiting for my suit to arrive, I started thinking about how to style it. I figured I could keep it casual with a simple t-shirt and some clean white sneakers, or dress it up a bit with a button-down shirt and some loafers. I even thought about accessories – a nice watch, maybe a pocket square if I was feeling fancy.
The suit finally arrived, and I was excited to try it on. The fit was surprisingly good! The jacket was tailored but not too tight, and the shorts were a good length. It was definitely a different look than my usual suits, but I liked it. It felt modern and fresh, perfect for the warmer weather.
I decided to test it out at a friend’s birthday BBQ. I went with the casual look – a white tee and my favorite sneakers. I have to say, I got a lot of compliments! People were curious about the suit, and most of them thought it was a cool look. I felt comfortable and stylish all day long, even when it got a bit warmer in the afternoon. The linen blend fabric was definitely a good choice – it kept me cool.

So, my verdict on the short suit? I’m a fan! It’s a fun way to switch up your style, and it’s surprisingly versatile. I’m already planning on wearing it to a few more events this summer. If you’re thinking about trying it out, I say go for it! Just make sure you find a suit that fits you well and choose a fabric that’s appropriate for the weather. You might just surprise yourself.
My tips for pulling off a short suit:
- Fit is key: Make sure the jacket and shorts fit you well.
