        I’ve worn a utila kilt several times. Let the balls hang low, let them Swing to and fro.

        I’ve lost it to a move, though. I need to get another one. They our comfy.

        Never understood why males couldn’t wear skirts. This doesn’t make sense.

    Skinny pants are a satanic device solely made to torture the inappropriately shaped

      I used to think that until I found drop crotch jogger jeans. Loose up top but skinny through the calves and cuffed to stay out of the mud. If I get extra longs I can wear them up over my bellybutton and the crotch is just normal. I looked for and found them when I found myself fantasizing about living life in my jogger scrub pants (where usually mud is the least worrisome thing that could wind up on my pants hems). Also they make my hips look huge in comparison to my tiny ankles and top so I get to look like a Pixar mom.

      I remember in 8th grade, my buddy got the first pair of JNCOs in our friend group. He was so excited, he goes “AND JUST LOOK WHAT I CAN FIT IN THE POCKETS!” and proceeded to pull out an entire 2-liter bottle of Mountain Dew.

      Unfortunately JNCO went out of business 7 years ago; shame, really - it could have made for a great moonshot stock bet! 😅

        funny how so many brands have tried to break into the denim market with $150+ jeans, yet levi’s is still the go-to after 100 years. even more so now that they make the $20 levi’s signature brand at walmart-- just as good as the “real” ones and even more comfortable

      Vans Slip-On Pros are basically the sharks of the shoe world: They hit optimal design a very long time ago, have barely changed since, and continue to remain one of the most effective species out there.

      3 cheers for figuring out that being un-trendy means you’re in style twice as much as anyone shifting their wardrobe…

      But also 5 stars cause you never gave any fucks either way anyway.

    I never thought that the absurd baggy pants I wore back in school would ever come back into style because they were truly awful.

  • saltesc@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I’ve always rocked regular or baggy. It’s a comfort and practicality thing. Having skinny jeans takes away the point of denim being durable and warm, something it needs to be loose for.

    source
    • shiroininja@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I feel colder in loose jeans. air gets in.

      source
      • saltesc@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        Aye, but in colder temperatures tight denim cools over leaving no air pocket to trap body heat or improve wind resistance. There’s no one on this planet that can generate body heat on such a level it can counters the atmosphere, so creating a little atmosphere inside the denim with loose jeans is the next best thing. It’s the same concept as single vs double glazed windows.

        If you want tight pants in cold climate, need to use high textured material likecorduroy or fleece, otherwise add a thermal base layer under the denim.

  • ZeffSyde@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    I’m totally cool with baby fit coming back for a while, just please don’t bring back the pre-distressed dirty washed jeans that look like you’ve been rolling around in a barn all day and also shit yourself.

    One way to tell where we are on the cycle is check to see what people between the ages of 35-40 are wearing.

        Yes and no it depends on if you live in a small town or big city.

      I can’t always buy my kind of stuff at cheap (enough) places. A few years back it was hella difficult to find straight fit jeans, and even now it’s rare to find one in the right size and colour. Bootcut (?) jeans made a pretty belated comeback in my country back when I was in my mid 20s, and I don’t think I can find them anymore. If I could, I would wear a not-too-wildly-bootcut one for summer.

    • Pacattack57@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      That’s because they tried to mix them with low cut pants which was also popular in the 2000s. They are much better now.

      The one time my girlfriend bought me a pair of skinny jeans I tried them on and couldn’t bend at the knees, she burst out laughing immediately, firmly believe she bought them 100% as a prank

    The skinny jeans era was a nightmare of elasticated crap that died on contract with a washing machine. We’d better not have to go back to seeing everyone’s pants over their low waistline though.

      Yeah i grew up in the 90s. The skinny jean crazy didn’t land with me. I wore baggy carpenters until they died, then the widest bootcut I could find.

      Now I am in heaven, my favorite aesthetic is everywhere, baggy jeans, shirt sleeves over long sleeves, hell yes let’s skate

      Just wear leggings with shorts over them, that’s what I do when working out outdoors in the colder months. It’s a perfectly acceptable look.

      At no point will it be at the actual best point: straight cut. They’re perfect. They show off ripped leg muscles without ripping or looking painted on.

      I've been sceptical about joggers at first, but now I cannot imagine wearing or buying anything else. a string instead of a button is such a quality of life improvement on its own.

      source
      • Auntievenim@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        They’re like modern day utility pants! Plus you can get them with fleece lining which is god tier for winter

    • infinitesunrise@slrpnk.net ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      The droopy crotch on most joggers is really annoying for me. I like a more loose fit around the thighs but not MC Hammer levels of loose.

      source
      • Auntievenim@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

        My gf says the same thing. She thinks they’re comfy but she cant wear them as part of an outfit. I’m sure if someone made joggers without the hang they’d get plenty of customers. I’m surprised nobody has tried yet, its like the only legitimate complaint I hear from people about them lol

  • 13igTyme@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

    Clothing and other things trend about every 30 years. And it’s driven by nostalgia. As you approach your 40s you’ll start seeing things that were popular when you were 10 and it makes you want to buy it, even if it’s a dumb nik-nak.

    Resist nostalgia purchases, folks.

    • theangryseal@lemmy.world ⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago

      I never stopped playing Mortal Kombat 1-3. It’s hard to get someone nostalgic for a time they never left haha.

      I do have the arcade machine now though. My wife spoils me.

      As for my clothes, I’ve smoked, drank, and done way too many drugs to actually look youthful. When old folks tell me that I look younger than I am, I tell them it’s because I’m wearing the same clothes I bought 20 years ago and I look like a college age millennial because of that, and their sense of time is off.
