For Spring 2010, the men will be ready for the spring showers with pedal pusher capri pants.

Many of the pret-a-porter menswear lines showed this style of pant. Two different lengths were popular—one stopped above the ankle, while the other came down a few inches past the knee.

Men’s capri pants were shown in a variety of different styles. Skinny, snug versions were worn for a more dressed up look but more casual baggier versions were also found.
