What age did you stop wearing shorts?

[AteRiri]

I mean mid-thigh shorts. Not conservative, almost knee-length ones. Nor shorts that show off panties.

I'm 60 and wear shorts on holiday - not in town.

FWIW, I think long "boy scout" shorts are way more aging than shorter ones.

I agree. It's tempting to go too long. Sansayra's short length is flattering on most ages.

I'm 53 and would now only wear shorts on holiday (resort) or in garden. I have horrible legs though - podgy knees and thread veins. In my late teens/ early 20's I wore shorts with heels to go clubbing (don't think I owned a mirror . . . . )

About 12, i hate shorts. Much prefer a short skirt or dress, and they are so much more stylish.

Good to see so many older shorts wearers!

Agree with the comments about longer not necessarily being more flattering. Can shorten the leg and emphasise the knees.
