I discovered the foolowing item as part of the school uniform for Marlborough Boys' College:
Side strap shorts in clerical grey drill - Miltan 4043 or Argyle
Side strap shorts, is it short trousers with braces like those short Lederhosen worn by men and boys in Tyrol and Bavaria?

[nq:1]And I saw these sizes for the "boys adjustable slide strap shorts": Sizes 4-8 $16.80 Sizes 10-16 $17.80 ... In centimetres. Schoolboys with a waist of 120 cm. Shocking! With my around 80 cm waist I'm considered too fat.[/nq]
Are you sure about that? The schoolboys with a 4-8 cm waist would be even more of a worry, I'd think.

There's one, but those shorts are after my time.
I think that it is just a little strap type thingme that allows you to tighten or loosen them, doing away with the need for a belt. I have seen something like this on local trousers and shorts. I will do some more research into this later.

"trousers" by default implies "long trousers". "shorts" is a way of saying "short trousers".
