I don't like skinny jeans on men or women. Even when the person is skinny they remind me of Tweedle-Dee and/or Tweedle-Dum.

Not unless you stole 'em from me. Although I'm guessing they'd be a tad too small.

Yeah, they'd be low rise capri pants. Show off my hairy calves like whoa.

Although really... what's the difference between the shorts that some guys wear and capri pants? They're just baggier.

Showing your kneecaps triggers extreme homophobia amongst some guys it seems.

Granted, I'm the guy with weird tattoos out running in ranger panties at midnight.

As stated earlier, skinny jeans don't work on a dude simply because of junk placement issues. But skinny jeans on a woman - yes please.



In fact, they look even better on a woman who has something in the seat and a little meat on her bones.

Sorry, but, IMHO, "skinny" jeans are tight in all the wrong ways, even on the shapeliest of women.

Now, these are a great pair of jeans... !

Dude, that's a gnarly car. Badass Beetle buggy!

I hate to break it to you but those are an ill-fillting pair of jeans on a woman with no ass. More than appropriate enough for washing a car or doing some painting but definitely not Saturday night out attire.

$100 for a pic of Skafe in a faded pair of ill-fitting jeans, leaning against a badass Beetle buggy.

Skinny guy. I wear 'form-fitting' clothes. Cabn't wear buggy clothes. They actually REVEAL that I'm malnourished!!!

On women, however, skinny jeans FTW. I love ass.

blahblah454

I have to agree fully with Cynosure, I hate skinny jeans on everyone. I like tight jeans on a woman, okay I love them, but not those skinny jeans. They make everything look bad.

And I have been out of this fashion loop since August. I moved to a small town out in the middle of farm country. Every time I go back to the city (about once a month, sometimes twice) I can't stop laughing when I go out in public, especially when the high schools get let out and the kids are out in public. New fashion is bloody hilarious!

That's totally what I'm going to look like in about 40 years.

Fugly, is this the first time you've posted your pic on TFP? Don't remember seeing you before. Hello!

I don't get how this thread on men's jeans suddenly has women's bottoms in it!

No fair.

To set the record straight, we need some male booty. Here's a start:



oh yeah, and I like bootcut myself, for both guys and gals. Skinny jeans make my bottom half look like an inverted triangle...sure it may look cute from the rear, but it looks odd from the front!

Okay, case in point:

Skinny jeans might work if you have leg / butt muscles. Turns out I do not. I've got kneecaps and ankles.



Either way, spray-on clothing looks ridiculous unless you're deep sea diving.

C'mon, how silly do those hardcore bicycle nerds look in their spandex jumpsuits?

Tight squeezes your balls. Slim touches your legs but doesn't bunch up. Skinny is so tight it bunches up and doesn't relax as you move.
I really don't like the stacked look that's becoming popular lately. It just looks like you bought jeans that are too long and didn't take in the legs like you should have
My brother just looked over my shoulder,
him: "What is that?"
me: "Beta mag"
him: "Oh, it's Crompsin."

Plan9

But today it's a total fashion sin to have jeans that aren't literally dragging on the ground around your shoes when you're standing up. It's dorky to show socks. $50+ pants are supposed to get stepped on, dragged, and developed fucked-up cuffs. Hobos are totally hot.

All things on the internet, will, eventually, without fail, inevitably pare down to one of three classifications--women, women's boobs, and/or women's butts. It's science.

Hmm...

I think I'm going to go to the mall sometime and take pictures of myself wearing ridiculous skinny jeans in the changing room.

I'll try on all sorts of ugly tacky-tastic stuff. A little TFP research project.

Crompsin I wear spandex shorts when I bike. They are wonderful for biking, they even have some nice padding in the crotch to keep me safe... mind you I do not have giant muscular legs so I wear regular shorts overtop of them. But you can be sure that as soon as I have some nice huge legs I am going to let it all hang out.

Here you go ladies, my milkshake, complete with slim straight fit jeans.

Skinny jeans have been popular with cowboys long before they caught on with hipsters. Ain't no one calling them femmes either.

Not a real fan of guys wearing jeans so tight/skinny that he looks like a ballerina.

I've always been a sucker for a guy with a nice butt in Levi's 501's. *sigh*

I wish I could wear skinny jeans. Too bad my calves are HUMONGOUS. haha

I think they look good when worn the right way. People who wear them need: an ass and nicely shaped legs.


I hate the new trend of BRIGHTASSLY colored skinny jeans. Neon green jeans look like you just fell in a pot of hiliter ink.

blahblah454

I can honestly say that I have never seen anyone in real life wearing those bright colored jeans. Is this a USA thing? Mind you I don't live in a city anymore, but I still visit at least once a month.

Bear Cub

That was on New Years. It was actually a bunch of wadded up $1 bills and a condom.

I wore them in the 80s - I had a bright pink pair and a turquoise blue pair. I remember having to lay on my bed and suck in to get one of my pairs of jeans on. Good times. This fashion trend should have stayed in the past where it belongs.

I can't stand skinny jeans, period. Give me a pair of relaxed-fit denims with plenty of pocket space and I'm content. I'd even go as far as cargo pants with a dozen pockets if I was feeling feisty. I'll draw the line at parachute pants or skintight pleather, though. Some fashion trends are best left forgotten.
