But I wear them anyway because they are available at a decent price and are comfortable and practical. But they are gross, I get it. What shorts should I wear, if at all?

I can’t find shorts that are long enough and don’t cost more than $80 that aren’t cargo. What are you all wearing? Send links. Maybe I’m shopping in all the wrong places, but even online, it’s hard to find knee length shorts for men that aren’t cargo.

I do have basketball shorts for basketball, but I can’t wear those to anything but basketball. That would be weird.
