Pants 4 Ladies Crisis Averted

I've been on the hunt for a 3/4 cargo pant in army camo. I was happy yesterday when I found a pair made by Superdry that fit the bill. Then, last night, when I was looking for more information on the Japanese brand that mixes vintage American elements with Japanese styling, I spotted my new purchase on a woman. "They're Pants for Ladies!" I cried (literally).

So this morning, I had a decision to make: do I keep them knowing they're women's not men's shorts? After all, I like them. Sure, they're a little tighter in the crotch then I'd like, but knowing how pants stretch, it didn't really bother me. After some serious contemplating, I decided to return them to the department store for a refund.

However, just minutes before leaving, I once again returned to the net for another search on the 3/4 leg cargo shorts. Luckily, I found a UK website that features the Superdry brand - and my shorts made for men! Of course, I thoroughly inspected my shorts to compare them to the pics featured on the UK site to make sure I was, indeed, comparing apples to apples. And in the words of the Target Lady from SNL, "It's a match!"
