The perfect middle ground

There has always been something of an argument as to whether it's better to be tall or short. And as always, the ones doing the arguing have no idea what it's like to be the other. So, while tall folk like to joke that they can at least reach the top of the kitchen cabinet, they're also more likely to have been made to stand at the very back of all their school photos. It's not a great feeling. And yes, we're talking from personal experience.

Those on the shorter side often love to pass comments like 'how's the weather up there?', and boast about having an easier time finding clothes that fit. But they're also more likely to get asked for their ID at a club - which, now that we think about it, is flattering in its own way.

At the end of the day, it's important to love the skin you're in and the height you have. And it's all the better when all of us can find a healthy middle ground, like our main deal of KOIKOI 100% cotton shorts. Shorts that everyone can love themselves in.
