Shorts
I have been planning on traveling to Cambodia within the next year or two and browsing this forum as well as the other one. I frequently see people complaining about/chiding people wearing shorts. Given the climate, it seems like shorts would make a lot of sense.
Just curious, why does no one wear them?

Tourists wear them. Locals don't.
It also depends where you go and how many mosquitoes are around.

Might be different in PP, but lots of my Khmer friends and aquantances do actually wear shorts.

Nothing wrong with shorts, but avoid if going to temples as this is somewhat disrespectful - I think perhaps Angkor Wat central tower also bans shorts, can't recall.
Now I've been here so long, I pretty much only wear shorts on the beach or in the gym - plus switching back to two wheels dictated a bit more caution on the legs, without going full Rossi.

So who are the hundreds of people I see wearing them in the capital everyday? Vietnamese?

Shorts are fine as long as they are not combined with a Chang beer wife beater.

Just don’t wear those big pocket cargo shorts that American sex tourists wear.

@notnotsure ...don't listen to the haters, they don't wear shorts because they're ashamed of their ghostly white legs, varicose veins, thunderthighs and tankles.
Shorts are perfectly acceptable attire, especially in the tropical heat of SEA. Except for stubbies...no-one wants to see your jatz crackers.
