Yea or Nay: Skinny Jeans for Men
Submitted by The Budget Fashionista on August 20, 2007 – 9:44 am19 Comments
Tight, long and lean, skinny jeans for men are hot for fall. Made popular by the indie-pop acts such as Razorlight, these jeans feature a slightly lower rise and an extremely straight leg with a bit of spandex/lycra stretch. Think British rockers like Sid Vicious and Mick Jagger.
No question they’re stylish, but not a great option for those of us with a little extra “lovin” in the middle or drumstick thighs.
Skinny Jeans for Men – Yea or Nay?
I think it really depends on the type of look you are going for. For me personally, I have not been a fan mainly because I haven’t mustered up the courage to buy a pair yet, but at the same time I don’t knock the look. As far as denim goes, I prefer straight legs because I wear a lot of high tops/sneakers. But I think skinny jeans look a lot better when you are trying to dress up your look for the evening. Also, a skinny has a superior look in darker selvedge washes. For some more information on this, check out the mens denim post I made on my fashion blog, swank.
I have extra lovin in the middle and I’ve been wearing stretch jeans for years. I also have fairly skinny legs for a bigger guy. Normal width jeans feel weird to me now.
Yea ! If it was good enough for : tom Mix, Gene Autry,Clayton Moore, aka, The lone Ranger,Guy Williams, aka, Zorro, Ducan Renaldo, aka, The Cisco Kid, William Boyd, aka, Hopalong Cassidy, Guy Madison, aka, Wild Bill Hitchcok, Richard harris (no, not the “ homosexual fitness guru “, aka, Sgt. Preston of the Yukon; it’s good enough for me. This fashion freedom had occurred long before females ventured into transvestism/cross-dressing into traditional menswear. By insane sexism against males in the perverted fashion industry, women now have more rights and fashion freedom into traditional, historical “ menswear “ then males; incredulous ! Imagine if women where the victims of these double standard fashion draconian dogmas ?
Really, This one is stylish mens jeans…
NAY!!! I can’t stand them since they are way too tight in the thighs, and I am not a big person.
i love the look of straight jeans on guys. im tired at seeing their underware.. get a clue guys. the hangin down pants are a “comeon” for prisoners.. and besides its about time you started dressing like your some body and not a loser or a ganster.. get a clue.. girls like a sharp dressed man
they look sexy on me, so i’d say yes lol
