Back when I was young, limber and actually worth a damn at basketball, whenever we would go to California for an AAU tournament and were anywhere near Venice Beach, I would go there to play ball on the main court. It was as exhilarating as it was terrifying. You never knew who would show up or if it was your turn to get absolutely embarrassed. Nonetheless, since I, personally, was never the victim of a basketball-related hate-crime, I don’t have PTSD when seeing these Jungmaven Venice Shorts. In fact, the US-made, hemp/cotton-blend relaxed fit shorts bring me the same joy and exhilaration those days on the Venice courts did. But, since you plebs will never experience that, just buy these for $98 and look cool.
