Shred Shorts

Post by Senor Grommet »

How many pairs of shred shorts do you own. A very wise person once told me that the more pairs of shorts you own for shred the more dedicated to shred you are.

I own approximately 11 pairs, give or take 3 on either side. I just bought 2 more two days ago, one for 12 dollars only and another for 19 bucks, both from an Adidas outlet.

I own no white or green shred shorts. I have blues, reds, yellowish orange, blacks, purple, and now gray.

No, it's the other way around. The less pairs of shorts you have, the more focused you are on footbag, because you are worrying less about what shorts you're going to wear.

I actually own 8 or 9, but I only ever wear one pair.

yeah, i agree with stephen. it shows you are dedicated even though you dont have many shorts if you ignore their cleanliness and wear em for one more session.

I have two pairs, but they're those soccer-type shorts that don't ever seem to get dirty, or at least seem fine. I usually wear one pair for around a week and then the other, then it's laundry time!

I have three pair of usable shred shorts, and a collection of not so usable ones.

All of you are missing the point.

Its about how many boxers and pairs of socks you have.. Unlike shorts, you can't throw them on the floor and wear them the next day. But then again, I've thrown on only shorts to save a pair of boxers and thrown on only boxers to save a pair of shorts before. Maybe that was a little too much information. :P

I'm still a newb :cry:

I have like 4 pairs of shred shorts, but I only really like to use 3. Actually, I really love this last pair of shorts I purchased and shred as much as I can in it. You'd think shred shorts would be easy to find, but no, for the right price they are not. Most stores have 'athletic shorts' that make me look like a midget or somethin, not shred appropriate. Oh well...maybe one day I'll be as dedicated to footbag as you Jeremy O'Mirken

I have one, and a backup that's almost split completely in half. I just never washed them. These are the only pairs I've ever owned, too @_______@ They almost always kept their shape because they were so filthy...

hmm, i have about..6 pairs..but they're just shorts I've accumulated over the years from my soccer league days. They work really well - light, short, and flexible.

I have 2 pairs, but I only wear one, they are the soccer mesh ones. I'm hoping to get a pair or 2, like orange or yellow.

I usualy use like 1 pair that I wash once a week, because they don't get smelly during the 4 or 6 times I play inbetween. But when they become unusable due to odor, I can use my short soccer shorts, or soem other backup running shorts that aren't as good.

I own 5, but only use two. I also use a bathing suit from time to time, usually in the summer. :D

I have about six pairs, but I only really like 2, and one I like WAY more.

They are a pair of soccer shorts. They're a bit loong, but I make due with them.

I should visit VV Boutique more often.

I picked 8-10, but they aren't official shred shorts. They are more like boxers and old volleyball shorts and other random shorts I use.

At one point I had three, but one of them has converted to swimming trunks.

My England shorts are my good shorts that I wear whenever I'm kicking in public, while my Adidas shorts I use primarily during solo sessions.

I also only really use 3 pairs of socks too :)

1, and they're black soccer shorts that never seem to get dirty at all. Not like it doesn't get dirty, but no stains ever show in these shorts.

Too much info I guess. I should buy another pair to be color coordinated.
