What is Rasta?

Rastafari is a religion founded by Leonard Howell (1880–1961), a Jamaican-born merchant seaman who came to believe that Haile Selassie was the incarnation of God on Earth. He renamed himself Ras Tafari, meaning “The head of the father”. His followers believed he was the reincarnation of Emperor Haile Selassie I, who died in 1975.

Sports outfits can be a lot of hassle, but with these long shorts there’s no need for that. Just throw on a pair and go running, swimming, weight-lifting, or participate in any other activity that pops in your mind. These shorts won’t let you down!
