Performing Salaah wearing three quarter pants under the kurta

Q: Please advise if men can wear shorts under the kurta and read Salaah with it even if it is a bermuda and covers the satr till below the knees in. If so, is there a specific length that it needs to be?

A: This is not a respectful attire for the presence of Allah Ta`ala.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
