Men's 1" Elite Split Shorts - Saffron Yellow Gold

Hi! Although I was born in Connecticut, I have spent more than half my life in Malayasia, for some years as a professor at the University of Malaya, but mostly in the state of Sarawak in the island of Borneo. Up to the age of 40 I enjoyed running, in CT and in the t
Tropics and I enjoyed the light clothing. I feel comfortable in Sarawak because I live with the Iban people --- my Iban wife and I have been married for 38 years. Sarawak is right under the equator. The climate is hot (I'm used to it). In the old days Iban people didn't wear much: men, a loincloth, women, a short skirt. See my paper. [URL below.]
Times have changed, yet when I first went there, men wore short shorts, no shirt, and women a sarong and t-shirt.

I grew up in the 60s and 70s, when short shorts, as well as Speedos, were acceptable. Short shorts began to disappear in the 80s and 90s. On my visits to the US I searched for them and found you, from whom I have been buying for over 11 years.

Your shorts are comfortable, brief yet modest and of good design. In the tropical heat I can't wear cotton, so synthetic fabric suits me. Your range of colors is most tasteful. They are the best I have found. Only one downside: the elastic gives out after a few years despite care, although this must be expected. I now wash them by hand. The split design allows freedom of movement in the chores of kampung life. After a loincloth, yours are a close second.

I hope you continue to prosper.

Very comfortable, bright color. No complaints

Really like these shorts!

I updated my saffron gold short. I have accumulated over 45 BOA SHORTS . I live in Florida and wear them daily. A good short wardrobe is a necessity.You are as good as you look!
