What is the irregular plural possessive of word shorts?

The irregular plural possessive of "shorts" is shorts'.

Here's why:

* Plural: The plural form of "short" is already "shorts."

* Possessive: To indicate possession, we add an apostrophe, even though the word already ends in "s."

So, you would say "These are shorts' pockets."
