AggieDave 6 #4 December 20, 2010 Call your favorite DZs and manufactures to get some patches. Sew the patches onto a pair of appropriate shorts and BAM, you've got a pair of "skydiving" shorts.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

rehmwa 2 #6 December 21, 2010 JC Penney, Kohls, Target, etc Go in the store and ask for "shorts" - they'll take you over there... ...

GLIDEANGLE 1 #7 December 21, 2010 Depends on what you are looking for: Cool swooping shorts...try the jumpsuit firms Shorts that advertise your addiction... See the "patches" comments. Comfy in HOT WX.... I jump in TX and it gets really HOT in summer. I often wear long swimming trunks under my jump suit and around the DZ. They handle copious sweat without becoming uncomfortable. They can be found with regular pockets (the zippered pockets are great for jumping.The choices we make have consequences, for us & for others! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nutz 0 #8 December 21, 2010 Quote JC Penney, Kohls, Target, etc Go in the store and ask for "shorts" - they'll take you over there... I was thinking Wal-Mart. If they ain't got it, you don't want it. Wait a minute, they don sell no stinking parachutes! "Don't! Get! Eliminated!" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
