Oh, honey, let me tell you about these short suits. Short suits, short suits, what’s the big deal about them? I seen them young fellas wearin’ ’em around, lookin’ like they lost half their pants. Now, back in my day, a suit was a suit. Pants went all the way down to your shoes, you know? Proper like. But these short suits, they’re somethin’ else.
My grandson, bless his heart, he got one of them short suits. Blue, it was. Said it was fashionable. Fashionable, shmashionable. I told him he looked like he was waitin’ for a flood. But he just laughed. Young folks these days, they got their own ideas about clothes. These short suits are all the rage, so I hear.
I guess they’re okay for summer, maybe. Less material, you know? Keeps you cool, I suppose. But you gotta have the legs for it. Some of these boys, skinny as a rake. Not everyone can pull off them short suits. You need some meat on your bones, you ask me.
And the colors! Land sakes, the colors! Bright pink, yellow, green. Back in my day, a suit was black, or brown, or maybe navy blue if you was feelin’ fancy. But these newfangled short suits, they come in every color under the sun. Looks like a rainbow threw up on ’em sometimes. If you want a short suit, make sure it is not too bright.
They got ’em for all kinds of occasions, too. Weddings, parties, even work, I hear! Imagine goin’ to the office in a short suit. Wouldn’t catch my husband doin’ that, no sir. He always wore a proper suit to work. Long pants and all. But times are changin’, I reckon. These short suits are here to stay, whether we like ’em or not.
And where do you get these things? They got stores for that. Big fancy places, and online ones too. My grandson, he ordered his online. Came in a box, all folded up. You can get these short suits everywhere nowadays.
- Gucci, they say is good.
- Zegna, that’s another one.
- Louis Vuitton, if you’re rich.
- Versace, that sounds Italian.
Those are the names they throw around, big fancy brands. They are expensive. I think a good short suit can cost you an arm and a leg. I wouldn’t pay that much for a suit with half the pants missin’, but that’s just me. They say it’s quality. Maybe it is. I don’t know about these things.
You can find them short suits in regular stores too, I suppose. Places where they sell regular clothes. Not just suits, but shirts and pants and all that. They got all kinds of things these days. And you can buy the short suits with other clothes. Some people like to match them up.
They got shirts, you know, regular shirts and them fancy dress shirts with the buttons and all. And they got casual pants, if you don’t want a suit. They don’t call them short suits if it is just the pants, they just call it shorts. You can get shorts made of different things. They are very comfortable, I heard. You can even wear them with a shirt and tie if you want to be a little bit dressed up. Some folks wear them that way, I think.
They even sell shoes and them other things, belts, and watches, and all that stuff. You can get it all at the same place, I guess. Makes it easy, they say. One stop shopping, they call it. I guess these short suits need special shoes, too.
Some places, you can go in and get your stuff right away. “Free pickup,” they call it. You order online, then go to the store and get it. Saves you time, they say. You can even find a store nearby, so you don’t have to go far. The short suits can be picked up this way, too.
They got all kinds of things in these stores, not just clothes. Activewear, they call it. For runnin’ and jumpin’ and all that. And watches, big ones, small ones, all kinds. And wallets, for your money. They got everything you could ever need, all in one place. You can find anything for a short suit in these stores.
So, these short suits, they’re somethin’ else. Not my cup of tea, but I guess the young folks like ’em. If you’re gonna wear one, make sure it fits ya right, and don’t pick a color that’ll blind the neighbors. And maybe wear some socks, for goodness sake. You don’t want your ankles gettin’ cold, now do ya?
Well, that’s all I know about them short suits. They’re a mystery to me, but there you have it. Just remember what I said, and you’ll be alright. Maybe. Who knows with these young people and their fashions.
