Shorts to Make You a Hit at the Next Pool Party

Lush is a just-dropped board short that's collage-style patched up w/ Mulisha-scripted-takes on beer logos and best of all, specially set up to semi-covertly tote up to 90oz of beer, so John Daly's going to have to wear four pairs, at least. In order to lug around all those suds, they've got two cargo-type pockets each equipped for a pair of tallboys, plus two skull-decorated straps on the back that're specially-reinforced for the weight of a can. Of course, there're side-pockets too (yes John Daly, each is about deep enough for a regular-sized can), plus the shorts come with an aluminum bottle opener attached to the inside of the side pocket.

Pool season is here. Make sure you're prepared.
