Short Shorts for Men

Would Jennifer Aniston Approve of John Mayer's Retro Mayercraft Look?

Fresh from his latest breakup with Jennifer Aniston, John Mayer rocked a retro sailor look on board his Mayercraft carrier on Friday. Channeling Captain Stubing from “The Love Boat,” Mayer rocked shorts so short that gossip magazines couldn’t help noticing how toned his gams were.

I can’t help but wonder if Jennifer Aniston would have approved of this look, retro as it is. There’s just something about seeing so much leg on a man… To see John Mayer’s look from last year’s Mayercraft excursion, more gender-bending fashions for men and an update on John Mayer and Jennifer Aniston’s breakup, check out the articles below.
