So in losing weight and increasing my activity levels. My wife wants me to find some shorts that show off my best features which she feels are my ass and upper legs. So im looking for some comfy short inseam (5-6”) non baggy shorts. Im looking for mid thigh inseam not to my knees. Im 5’9 and waist 36. In my pockets: Iphone 13; kel tec p32, spare mag, small folding knife, wallet My Columbia PFG’s meet all criteria except fit Any ideas? |
I’m going to lead with: I hope you get some real/helpful suggestions; I wear pretty baggy in the waist in order to fit (over) my legs. |

Chubbies Shorts They come in shorter inseam lengths anywhere from 5.5" to 8", usually run sales, and are decent fit and quality. |

I made the mistake of wearing some 6" shorts to poker night. It was brutal. 7" are as short as I'll go. Eta: I have leg day twice a week. Like a few others said, you may have trouble with the leg diameter if you built your quads/hammies up. You don't want people to be able to count the change in your pocket when you put them on. Freefly make a short that fits well. Southern Tide are a little tighter, but workable. Columbia you mentioned earlier work well, but I have the 7" version. |

This, and add a Fanny Pack to the mix to hold all of your gear. I’ve been wearing short shorts and a Fanny for the past year in Chicago, no issues. |

That won’t work in the city, you need to look like everyone else. If I were to go that route, I’d just wear my bino harness. |
| I'm a big fan of wearing my silkies/Ranger panties. Train, Lift, Shoot makes some nice shorts with a built in liner but no pockets. |
Always assume that the government wants to kill you, and you'll be far closer to the truth than assuming otherwise.
