These shorts are transparent to ultraviolet light at the hem and opaque at the top, with a gradual transition between. Result: no more ridiculous-looking above-the-knee tan lines; rather, a gradual, almost imperceptible fade from golden-brown knees to alabaster butt.

Could a similar result be obtained by adjusting shorts periodically during a tanning session? Certainly works for photographic printing.
