Back in college, I was supposed to do my semester abroad in Brazil, but was swiftly relocated after some harmless tourist-bus hijackings. Ultimately, I wound up in Panama, which I was pretty pissed about at first, until I realized the country has no rules. I’m talking cars without seat belts, beaches without lifeguards, and no enforced drinking age. These Best Made Co. Panama Field Shorts would have been great for that trip. Made in the US out of Japanese Panama cloth, the shorts have rivet-secured pockets, double-needle stitching, and a fully reinforced seat and front leg, making them the perfect accompaniment for a totally lawless lifestyle. Three colors are available for $89 (down from $128).
