Jorts: A Definition

Jorts (alias: jean shorts) are our friends. Either that, or they’re our mortal enemies—It’s hard to tell. In any case, jorts never leave us for long; they seem to go in and out of style faster than Kanye West can embarrass himself.

If you are fan of jorts, you may want to join the Facebook group, I Love Jorts!, which fawns, “Spreading like the sexiest plague to ever wipe out lameness, jorts are a potent mixture of denim and leg.” Those who disagree can retort by uploading their latest photo evidence to nojorts.com, an anti-jort website.

As you can see, jorts are a controversial garment, one that indiDenim will have to take a purely neutral stand on. The rest of you can duke it out…

For those jorts fans out there who prefer a little bit more coverage, there is a wide variety of styles to consider.

Jeremy Priven shows us how to rock a bermuda jort.

Cuffing can give your old jorts a brand new look.

Cutoffs will take you from jeans to jorts in no time flat.

And don’t forget one of the newest additions to the jorts family—“pockouts”!
