    I honestly don’t get it. Skinny jeans never made sense, 550s are about as snug as they can be if I expect to be able to get to my keys, and I’m not a big guy.

    Pockets are awesome no matter what they’re on as long as they have a use.

      Yeah straight fit pants are safe and timeless (I think there was never a time where you could go wrong with pleated pants), relaxed and wide do look better, at least in my opinion.

      Still, the amount of times I see these ugly ass fits, mostly men between idk 35 and 50, skinny jeans and ankle socks, then T-shirts with these extremely short sleeves that get stuck in their armpits or tight long sleeve shirts, and bonus points for wearing a not fitting suit jacket over that (instead of maybe at least a sports jacket).

      If this will be the staple of old people fashion when they retire, I wouldn’t be surprised. Just screams of early 2000’s and the wardrobe never got an update.

      Hm idk where this rant came from to be honest but I stand by my words. I just don’t want to look at this anymore.

      I wore them for a while. The trick is do leg day, be an absolute twig otherwise, and tuck if you need to. It’s a means to show off legs and ass without wearing short shorts.

      But yeah I grew up to straight leg jeans and now have the ass and legs to look great in them too
