![]() The actor probably didn’t think twice about his gym outfit that day, but when you leave the house in tiny shorts like his, you may just find yourself swept up in the Great Shorts Length Debate. Who wouldn't want to feel the freeness of high-cut shorts on a hike, or hanging down by the lake? Also, let's not overlook Ventimiglia’s high-top Converse with no socks, indeed a tremendous warm-weather style move. But if you think about it, that same concept feels pretty applicable to most summer activities. Perhaps even split shorts? (They're a go-to for serious runners everywhere, and great to work out in.) I understand the feeling: when it comes to gym attire, you want your shorts to get out of the way. Ventimiglia, who obviously doesn't skip leg day by the looks of those thighs, was wearing what I can only guess are shorts with between a one- and three-inch inseam. Enter Milo Ventimiglia, the 43-year-old (a cusp Gen X/Millenial) heartthrob actor, who was photographed leaving the gym the other day in shorts so tiny that they make the TikTok-co-signed five-inch inseam look tame. Not only did they proclaim it, but they did so by straight-up roasting anyone in standard seven- and nine-inch inseam pairs you see in cities and suburbs across the country. Last year, a critical mass of Gen Z TikTokers declared that there was only one acceptable short length: five inches. The arrival of shorts season, of course, also means the reemergence of the neverending Great Shorts Length Debate. The star told The Talk he’s “excited” about the internet’s outpouring of thirst for his hiked-up shorts - even if he “wasn’t expecting it” - and earlier this month he shared a close-up shot of the shorts themselves on Instagram along with the caption, “Ride em high kids.Spring has officially arrived, and with it the heart of shorts season. While Ventimiglia may not have intended to grace the world with his iconic massive thigh moment, he seems to have embraced his new role as the official face (and quads) of Massive Thighs Summer. In fact, as he told The Talk co-hosts, “I wasn’t even thinking about it.” But while one InsideHook editor who happens to know a thing or two about soccer players and their thigh-baring tells me the shorts-shortening maneuver is “100% a vanity, ‘check out my fucking beautiful legs’ thing,” Ventimiglia claims that’s not what he was going for at all. ![]() It’s worth noting that this shorts-hiking habit is one the star shares with many prominent soccer pros, most notably Alexis Sanchez and Cristiano Ronaldo. “The shorts are normal length, but when I work out I kind of fold them up just so I can work a little harder.” “I swear to god this is just a guy leaving the gym,” Ventimiglia told the show’s co-hosts when the topic of the photo inevitably came up. The photo of Ventimiglia was hailed as a harbinger of spring and the scantily-clad summer of sex to come, and the upcoming season has since been declared the Summer of Massive Thighs in honor of our short-shorts king. While the brevity of Ventimiglia’s hemline begged the question of whether there might be such as thing as too-short short shorts, we - and the rest of society - ultimately arrived at the nearly unanimous decision that when it comes to shorts, the shorter the better (“so long as you’re not bordering on a public indecency charge,” as InsideHook’s Logan Mahan put it). The short shorts seen round the internet sparked a new round of inseam discourse, one that issued a significant challenge to last year’s TikTok-sanctioned five-inch decision. This Is Us star and inadvertent short-shorts icon Milo Ventimiglia is setting the record straight on those headline-making ultra-short shorts, and I kind of wish he wouldn’t.įor those who may have forgotten - just kidding, anyone whose eyes have glimpsed the glory of Ventimiglia’s bulging thighs emerging from the sky-high hems of a pair of gym shorts shorter than god’s own daisy dukes could obviously never forget such a sight - Ventimiglia made headlines back in April after the actor was photographed leaving the gym sporting a pair of exceptionally short gym shorts.
