Shorts (Clothing)

Shorts are seen across the National Lampoon Vacation Movies. These movies take place in the 1980's (with the exception of Vegas Vacation), so the shorts were really short in these movies.

On the cover of Vacation, Clark Griswold wears short blue running shorts with white borders, while Ellen Griswold wears jeans torn vey short. In the European Vacation cover, Clark Griswold wears short red running shorts with a white border, while Rusty Griswold wears his fathers previous shorts, short blue running shorts with a white border. Christmas Vacation has only a few appearances of shorts, in Clark Griswold's hallucination about owning a pool in his backyard. Cousin Eddie wears shorts on the diving board before being quickly replace by a lady in a red swimsuit, a attendant at Clark Griswold's local store. In Vegas Vacation, shorts are worn multiple times, and at multiple lengths. Cousin Eddie mentions Vegas being the only place that you can wear shorts all the time. Rusty Griswold wears short scaly gold swimming shorts and a red T-shirt for the end of the story. Cousin Eddie's daughter is seen wearing short jean shorts on every appearance, and convinces Audrey Griswold, Clark and Ellen Griswold's daughter, to wear short jean shorts, similar to her.
