Men's Capri (beachcomer) Pants

Anyone have any idea where they can be purchased? On our last cruise we saw several men in them. They looked smart and comfortable. They were light weight, mid-calf length, some tied at the bottom. I have searched the internet to no avail.

Hmmm, good question valtime. My grown son has a pair but it's the kind where you can zip off the lower part to make them into capris. I think he might have gotten them at The Gap or Old Navy, but that was sometime ago.

You are not the only SWM who does have any hangups about wearing real shorts.I live in Florida and they are my staple during the summer.Some of us are comfortable in our own skin.
