Swap Your Shorts for These Stylish Summer Pants

I hate the saying, “Life’s too short” as a rallying cry to take action. No! Life is too long.

Life is too long not to learn to play the tuba if you’ve always liked the oompa sound it makes. Too long to stay in a job you hate. Too long not to read more books.

And when it comes to men’s style? Life is too long not to wear white pants just because you’re afraid you’re going to spill mustard on them.

Now, I’m not saying bust out a pair of chinos in a white or off-white hue like sand or ecru at a summer barbecue. That’s just asking for trouble.

But to work? Or on a date (just drinks?!)? You can do this! I believe in you.

Even better? Team SG is here to help. Get inspired with a bevy of white pants men’s outfits to wear this summer.

How to wear white pants

Repeat after me: White pants are just pants. That are white. No one will point at you, like Nelson from The Simpsons. If anything, they’ll be jealous you had the courage to sport a style they’d never have the courage to wear themselves.

So I guess the advice is, wear white pants like they are pants. But if you need more specific inspiration, keep scrolling.

With a white t-shirt and black shoes

How easy-breezy is this look? If the wide-leg silhouette isn’t for you, opt for a straight-leg style instead.

With a chore coat and striped tee

You don’t have to go for such a bright blue with your chore coat (navy is always an option), or red stripes (any stripe will do).

But trust me when I tell you, you can absolutely pull off this white pants look.

With a bandana and knit polo

Hello, this is such a classy way to wear a men’s white pants outfit. The bandana? Just chef’s kiss good.
