I'm looking for some decent plain navy or kharki shorts, similar to Noble's Hackett ones. Fairly cheap if possible, certainly don't have to be high end designer! ANyone any help?

dunno if i like them.
bit ott if you ask me, and the pockets are massive on the back.
would prefer them in black with the stipes on the inside.

paul smith signature stripe is an an time iconic classic, swim shorts are meant to be loud, pockets are always good for room keys and phone when going to bars/restaraunts in your hotel…add the three together and it = FTW

I remember PS swimwear coming up small when I tried on the sig stripes in HOF i.e. size up but don't quote me on it.

This is true - when we went to Magaluf we all had fluro Ralph trunks and some Scottish ruffians were muttering about us being 'show-off cockney wankers' and saying they would burn our hands on a stove!

when i was in Ibiza last year these scottish ruffians were saying similar things to us, one night we stuck a decks of transsexual playing cards to there hotel doors with toothpaste made a massive mess, the following afternoon by the pool they kicked off with some welsh ruffians about it and WWIII nearly started. good fun though

Just ordered these in the indigo ringspun and I also like the colour of these too: (the Garbstore ones are very similar to these too)

Reckon large will be fine , especially since they are elastic

I have small in PS shorts and they are about perfect
