I have never wore these short of shorts before into a store or in public

They aren't too short.
I've got some shorts I've had for 20-odd years. My daughters call them short-shorts, they are still longer than football shorts.

Nothin' wrong with the shorts. But what's up with the socks?!?!?!?!?

It feels nice to get that extra sun and air in the summertime 🌞

Don't look too short. Just regular shorts.

kind of long
