Hugh Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Many years ago (in the '60's), I wore the Navy uniform shorts, but I'm afraid they didn't look like these. They were longer (just above the knee), had normal trouser pockets (no flaps) and didn't have the side waistband adjustment tapes. On the other hand, I now wear commercial shorts to the gym which look almost exactly like these. Afraid these aren't Navy shorts. Best, Hugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter monahan Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I agree that these are likely NOT navy issue. I don't believe, for example, that there was a US flag on any US Navy clothing tags. I too have owned a number of pairs of very 'military looking' shorts, all purchased at local clothing stores. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hugh Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Sorry, Frank, I haven't a clue where you might find these shorts nowadays. I don't think the US Navy wears them any more, so the uniform shops are most unlikely to carry them, and my pairs have all gone for rags years ago. The legs were baggier than most shorts nowadays. The Royal Navy and Royal Australian Navy (and others) still wear the white shorts which are approximately the same cut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
