    Can’t wait for baggy again, my nuts can’t take the skinny phases.

      You know it’s possible to simply not give a duck to trends? I know, it sounds insane, but just do whatever you like. Try a skirt if you want, I bet it’s nice on the balls.

      Shit, now I want to try a skirt!

        Problem is finding stuff that isn’t trending. My favorite brand for jeans that was super comfortable, cheap and durable stopped making baggy jeans, so I had to shop elsewhere which was much more expensive

          Seriously. I bought new jeans two weeks ago. I went to multiple different stores. My choices were skinny jeans, a different brand of skinny jeans, or a different brand with a different style of skinny jeans.

            The quality changes. Their jeans in the past 10 years are just the same as others, but higher prices. They are not special anymore.

            They are super high quality, made in the US and are actually a good company - so at least your money is well spent. It’s a solid investment.

              No doubt, and they look good as well, but I’ve already been financially irresponsible yesterday so I’ll wait a bit 😅

              Plus I’d need it shipped to Europe, so that’ll be on top if they even deliver here.

          Just like it’s becoming impossible to find 100% cotton jeans. Everything is stretchy. More comfortable, but far less durable.

      Baggy means cargo pants and moar pockets. Yesssss. Also don’t forget about the mid-phase between the two: bell-bottoms and boot cuts. I forget when they show up but I feel like we are due soon…

      I wear a lot of cargo joggers, which are really the best of both worlds. 10/10. I usually have to buy them in men’s because of the eternal struggle for pockets, but it’s worth it.

        Not sure that they replace underwear but my wife has these and still wears very thin underwear with them since the stretch mesh you are calling underwear is not really underwear nor super comfy with direct sensitive skin contact during exercise.

      I splurged on some “nice” sweat pants, and that’s pretty much all I wear for fall/winter/spring, when I have to leave the house. Cargo shorts for summer.

      It used to be PJs all day every day, but those nice sweats were a game changer.

      I have Levis 501 classics, from 1993 that I wear often. I’m tired of fashion dictating what i’m supposed to wear. Though, i do like me some dress chinos, BUT NOT BECAUSE THEY ARE COOL…. Damn comfy.

        Tried both, think both are weird. Prefer a normal or slim fit.

          Not OC but they drag behind the leg when moving, like to get caught on things and quite often drag on the ground. With slim/skinny it’s just your leg. Comfy, secure and with good pants, not limiting movement in any noticable capacity. Alas personally I prefer slim than skinny.

          Well, it obviously depends on the style of fabric. Soft and loose fabrics can be good to have baggy, such as sweatpants or flax-based summer clothes. But specifically for the type of jeans shown here, I don’t like the tactile feel of the excess fabric. And it catches on itself and gets in the way.

          I don’t like skinny jeans either, to be fair, but slim fit is good for me. Im also italian, if that explains it.

      …skinny pants look skanky as f*ck and grotesquely unflattering: just wear shorts instead…
