We have an older member (actually 2) whom wear these hotpants type shorts, except they are now borderlining briefs, they are very tight and very short (steve will vouch), when he was running sunday, the ladies giggled quite a lot for some reason  ........... well put it this way you could tell what side he dressed :blush:
The other man in our club made all the ladies giggle on a half marathon because whilst behind him his shorts were blowing up in breeze and they could see his cheeks. (i think the shorts lost there lycra)
So i would say it depends how they are worn  |
Vouching for sure!!
Not that I ever notice shorts men wear.............
....now ladies in shorts is another matter

I am with you on that Leece, I don't wear shorts outside the house unless they are lycra ones, flappy shorts don't keep everything together.

but surely the movement of the loose material disguises the movement of that which it covers? |

Well, I didn't opt for the 'hot pants' in the end. I found some really cheap standard shorts at Tesco 
Anyway, I wore them for a test run tonight and after about 100yards, I realised that I'd forgotten the ipod. I decided plod on regardless and when I got back. I found that I'd just run my fastest ever consecutive miles. After 2.75 miles I'd managed a mean time of sub 8 minutes. So I'm really chuffed and it left me wondering 'was it my new shorts or was it the absence of the ipod'. Me thinks it might be the latter.
So seeing as the ipod sport + kit thingy seems to have died on the run last Sunday, I'm wondering if I might be better off without it. |

It's a sign!  Your body is bound to adjust it's stride to suit the music, and as it would appear has been slowing you down!
I have some shorts like the cheapy tesco ones (if they're the ones I think you mean) and I use them for playing footy in - certainly don't help improve my running times though  |

don't worry too much, my eldest daughter (14) thinks I look like a tramp all the time; let alone when I go for a run.
