Buying jorts can be difficult because stores do not always label denim shorts as “jorts.” The right pair may be hiding among jeans, shorts, or clearance racks, making the search a real denim dilemma. Sizing can also be a bit short of consistent, especially when comparing vintage, thrifted, and modern cuts. Prices range from pocket change to enough to make your wallet feel blue. Still, with a little legwork, Omaha shoppers can find a pair that fits the bill—and the thighs.
