Jorts, or denim shorts, have transitioned from a utilitarian staple to a polarizing fashion statement and a viral internet trope. While they were once synonymous with 'dad fashion' and uncool attire in the early 2000s, the term 'Jorts' gained significant meme traction through various channels, most notably 'Jorts the Cat' on Twitter, which highlighted workplace dynamics through an orange tabby. In broader meme culture, jorts represent a specific type of confidence or a niche aesthetic that blends retro vibes with irony. Today, the meme is used to celebrate comfort, mock fashion elitism, or simply embrace the chaotic energy of cutting your own jeans into shorts.
