The legs are so white they blind me. Damn you tactical shorts!

Like a walking flashbang - you may not like it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

i mean, i think it's pretty obvious they meant like dress uniforms. these are just short and tight compared to dress blues, but generally in a similar style.

The military does not have Class A shorts. Lol. At least they don't in my country.

that's why i said they were like military pants but short lol

it's still the same style of pants and that's still how they're described, theses ones are just cut into shorts. military is just the term for the style of pants worn in dress uniforms. it doesn't mean every pair of pants in that cut are used by the military.

Isn't that style of pant just called "slacks"?

Edit: some other people shared some pictures of British soldiers in these shorts. So the British army may actually have a uniform with shorts like this, but baggier.

Historically, there were shorts issued by the UK, New Zealand and Australian militaries. I think Australia might yet do so

Plus fours, though, with a holster for your kukri and a teapot. Not… whatever this is.

The picture doesn't really depict the full-on psychopathy that possesses their minds and hearts.

Thanks for the correction! Can confirm, am frequently retarded.

We try not to use that word anymore. You should also try not to use it.
