Wanna help me shop for DH?
DH is a PITA about shopping for clothes. He desperately needs a new bathing suit, knows exactly what he wants and how much he wants to spend but seems to think it will magically appear in his dresser. In the meantime, he is content to b!tch about his current options.
So, where does one buy cargo swim trunks that look like regular shorts that are in the $20 range? The closest I have found are Old Navy (but they have a stripe and he won't like the stripe) and Lands End (but they have a built in belt thing and he won't like that).
Any suggestions? We go to the beach a fair amount and I'm tired of his whining!
Re: Wanna help me shop for DH?
would he wear something like these?

do you mean the drawstring?
these are from Lands End, but have no belt...and are a solid color. would that work?
eta: it would help if I posted the link...duh.

He is very specific (obnoxiously so) about the need for cargo pockets. And the ones LE carries have a more than a drawstring, something very belt-like. There is another pair on LE that he might like, though. I think he'd prefer grey or khaki-ish, since that's what he usually wears.
Ah! I need that code for a dress! Thanks!
I've never heard of that site - thanks!
Kohls Department store has similar:

In person, these just look like plain black - the picture is deceptive: http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=66124&vid=1&pid=846210&scid=846210002
G is also picky about swim trunks (except, he never finds the "right ones" and winds up biotching...) we would have got the ones in the link, but they didn't have his size in the store.
