Avoid the ladies skinny jeans that show off your spindly little calves & they are perfectly comfortable
Casual tracksuits are for chavs, sorry.
What about formal tracksuits?
Is anyone else done wearing jeans in public?

Cheers, yep definitely old!
There's a bit too much to unpack in this. What is a good drip for starters?
There is no societal pressure to wear jeans but there are reasons to own and wear more than one type of trouser.

Likewise, although my work actually issues them as uniform PPE. I haven't worn jeans since I was maybe 16, now.
For non-work, I prefer cargo/outdoorsy type trousers mainly for the pockets, which I've gotten used to having as I carry a lot of 'stuff' these days. I tend to buy the more high end ones though, and even my jean-lookalikes have far more pockets than actual jeans. Most have extra pockets for holding magazines and, while I'm not walking around armed, the 5.56mm pockets hold a smartphone perfectly!
I only wear smart chino/slack type stuff when we go out somewhere nice (that isn't formal enough to require a full suit).... and yes, those have extra pockets too!
Most of my friends tend to wear them, but we're all in fairly outdoor and/or mechanical trades, so they're more practical than smart/fashion stuff for general life.
I've barely put jeans on in the last few months since lock down as I've been in a perpetual state of shorts or joggers. I wear jeans the few times I've needed to ride my motorbike but even then when I get to work I put some shorts on.
Genuinely no idea if my jeans still fit me correctly once I come to need them once again
But being a chav is just a state of mind. I've no issues wearing joggers out in public, comfort is the aim of the game.

I have no idea what this is either, as I imagine he isn't putting his dripping appendage in his Fendi belted jeggings.

Are you regularly murdering prostitutes or something?

I don't understand why people are so upset by skinny jeans. If they are what you want to wear, then wear them.
No, just don’t like it. Because of trauma.

Came into the thread expecting the OP to say he only ever wears chinos since discovering them. Very disappointed. Pull yourself together OP.

Fair enough.
Maybe consider giving them to charity shops instead?
Slightly less painful than a vasectomy, I suppose!

katie price would disagree
I generally try to be respectful of other people's tastes but when it comes to skinny jeans I really struggle they just look so utterly ridiculous to me on a non-female. I think a good part of it though is a slight resentment on my part that a lot of clothing companies are swinging towards catering for it making it harder for me to find the clothing I'm comfortable in (I struggle at the best of times finding stuff that caters to me, too often when I find something that is perfect they stop making it after a fairly short amount of time to focus on some ridiculous trend instead, so easily get angry about it).
Does your boyfriend like you in them?
