As an almost 50yo dad in decent shape my options for casual wear are limited. If I start dressing more trendy I look like I'm trying to be young. If I dress too comfortable I look like I'm giving up. Pretty much the only thing we can get away with is jeans and a black or white t-shirt. Or some non descript shirt. Buying shorts is maddening because cargo shorts are "out" and everything else is too "cool". Everything ends up being boring.
I've resorted to buying better quality because it at least makes me feel I'm trying. But it's still just ... boring.
Cargo shorts are functional, you gotta rock the ol boy scout aesthetic.
