The ‘micro’ shorts promoted in Free People’s ads give customers a twist on their pants.
The luxury retailer, which specializes in “bohemian” clothing, took to social media last week to announce the arrival of its summer staple “micro” shorts.
Thousands of customers have since weighed in on the issue in the comments, joking that the length of the shorts wouldn’t fit the average adult woman. However, it may work for hamsters.
“Hearing these rude and aggressive comments makes everyone relax. I bought it for my hamster and he loves it too!” one user wrote in the comments.
The post has caused quite a stir since it was first shared, with many women bonding over their mutual dislike.
All of the “micro shorts” pictured sell for $68 or more, making them a very short-term investment.
