I mean that’s just cat’s bum isn’t it? I’m old and feel so very out of touch….

Erm, which shorts?

Littledidsheknow · 22/05/2025 15:37

Sorry, they weren’t showing before!

Youre right, they’re awful!

verityveritas · 22/05/2025 15:59

Good grief, have to be very careful which colour you go for, I mean that really has chocolate starfish potential.

coxesorangepippin · 22/05/2025 19:25

Scrunch bum shorts, yes

BigDahliaFan · 22/05/2025 19:26

@coxesorangepippin yes as in you wear them? Or yes as in that’s completely normal ?

Brings a whole new meaning to the question "Does my bum look big in this?".

Why anyone wants to wear clothes that make them look like they have a fat arse is beyond me. Mine is totally natural.😂😂

henlake7 · 22/05/2025 19:55

Ewwww, they literally have a pucker!
I hope they don't do them in skin tones.😬

Itiswhysofew · 22/05/2025 20:58

Cat"s bumb. Brilliant🤣

GingerLiberalFeminist · 22/05/2025 21:01

So grim. I hate them in the gym and on teenagers in the street!

tillyandmilly · 22/05/2025 21:02

They are vile!

Wtf!!!!!

HeBeaverandSheBeaver · 22/05/2025 21:24

That's dreadful. Porn has to be the reason for this misogyny. Why on earth would you want to draw attention to your bum hole!!!!

Daisy12Maisie · 22/05/2025 21:26

Really grim.

notatinydancer · 23/05/2025 07:12

Hideous

LlynTegid · 23/05/2025 07:14

They look awful. If you don't buy them you are being considerate of others in that fewer sales, the better.

I am convinced a lot of fashion is someone having a practical joke.

StarlightLady · 23/05/2025 07:42

First world problem.

Would l wear them? No.
Do l think they look good? No.
Am l concerned that someone else wears them? No.

CurlsLDN · 23/05/2025 07:46

As @coxesorangepippin says they are called scrunch bum shorts. They’ve been a fashion for a few years now.
Not my taste at all but some women like them

Koazy · 23/05/2025 07:47

They’ve been around a few years. Not my taste but very popular with some people.

ballroomblue · 23/05/2025 07:52

No doubt we'll soon be seeing teens in them everywhere we go. Oh, the joy.

treetopsgreen · 23/05/2025 07:53

Anything with puckering around one's butt hole should be avoid as it just mimics an ass hole.

I think that might be the whole point of them tbh.

LavenderBlue19 · 23/05/2025 07:58

They're everywhere in Essex, I'm amazed some people haven't seen them before 😂 Common sight on the school run. I'd say it's firmly young-ish mums territory, not teens at all.

LegoTherapy · 23/05/2025 08:01

There’s a mum at school who is a PT and she wears the arsehole sucking up your clothes leggings. There’s a few children who have WTF expressions when they see her in them. My ds is 10 and thinks they look like her bum’s sucking on a lemon. She has the trendy thick thighs and arse and wants to show them off I guess. I’m a child of the 70s and grew up with the attitude that having big bum was a bad thing. Each to their own.

smallstitch · 23/05/2025 08:04

I’ve seen loads of people at the gym wearing the shorts that accentuate the bum cheeks, but I’ve never seen any with the puckering bum hole 😂 That’s grim.
