Guys - Would you wear Skinny Jeans?

    I have just purchased a pair of Skinny Jeans and I must admit that I look great in them and it feels so good to wear them. I often wonder why more guys do not wear Skinny Jeans as they are so figure flattering. I admit that one needs to be a bit skinny to wear Skinny Jeans, but outside of that, there should be no problem in guys wearing them. So guys - dare you wear Skinny Jeans!

    No.
    They look horrendous.
    I think less of people who wear them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 638 ✭✭✭flanders1979


    Any lad wearing them would probably have a pair off assless chaps also.
    Too metro for my liking.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 980 ✭✭✭Freddy Smelly

    Skinny Jeans are the sexiest style of jeans that any man or woman could wear and when teamed with the right shoes or boots are a fantastic look.

    Explain ' metro'.

    My balls are too big for any jeans, let alone skinny jeans. Hence my naturalist tendencies

    No, because I have a penis.

    Nonsense there for birds real men aren't meant to fit into women's clothes. Any person with a bit of muscle in the thigh would not fit into them

    Hazard a guess

    You have to be trolling.

    No

    They look really bad on men

    It was so much easier to blame it on Them. It was bleakly depressing to think that They were Us. If it was Them, then nothing was anyone's fault. If it was us, what did that make Me? After all, I'm one of Us. I must be. I've certainly never thought of myself as one of Them. No one ever thinks of themselves as one of Them. We're always one of Us. It's Them that do the bad things.

    Jesus AH, must you be this judgmental? Between this and the eyebrow piercing thread, I do wonder about the lot of ya.

    Skinny jeans look grand, and if you feel good in them, go for it. Feck the nay sayers.

    No I think this is standard of the younger "man" of today. They feel its cool to dress as women, use skin products and add styling gel to their hair. Its a frightening reality.

    It depends on the person, I've known some guys who pull off skinny jeans and some that should never been seen outdoors again.
    IDK though, my hatred for chi(no)s runs deep in my veins and it hurts me that a lot of guys are wearing them now.

    I cannot figure this idea of skin-tight jeans as looking ' feminine '. In medieval times men wore tights, long before they were ever worn by women. Tight jeans were originally worn by cowboys and became fashionable again for men in the 60s. So tight jeans were worn by men long before they were worn by women. I am a man in Skinny Jeans and proud of it!

    are you gay or just a camp metrosexual?

    Why does a man showing interest in fashion make him gay or camp metrosexual? F*ckin hell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭lertsnim


    I'll leave the skinny jeans to the more feminite members of society

    read the quote again... mainly the underlined bit.

    straight men that are not camp do not use that terminology

    Cause he probably is


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 29,293 ✭✭✭✭Mint Sauce


    Nope. Have tried on the odd pair by accident when picking them up from the bootcut rail. Couldn't even get them past my thighs.

    And I would be quite slim my self.

    Wear them if you want, they're just for effeminate nonces though.

    But to each their own I guess.

    Ok, now I've got this picture in my head of a bloke in skinny jeans wearing knee-high high-heeled boots ...

    My husband will want a word with you, I think this image just turned me into a Lesbian.

    Do the homeless tramps have generational fashions too?

    Not even I make up stories like that
    Tight Jean originally worn by cowboy- yeah right.
    Have you ever tried to ride a horse while wearing tight clothing?

    My mom says they're cool and if I do well in my Leaving cert she'll buy me a new pair and the Twilight boxset.

    I only wear boot cut because they hide a section of my large feet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 98 ✭✭KoukiKeith


    I wear them. Generally buy slim fitting suits too.

    I honestly think they look better. In saying that though, I get a fair amount of abuse from friends, work, etc :D

    Personally I find skinny jeans a lot more attractive on men than those "I go to business school" grey sweatpants.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,027 ✭✭✭St.Spodo


    Slim jeans > skinny jeans > baggy jeans, for me. Although I really only wear slim jeans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 763 ✭✭✭Lucy and Harry


    With lower sperm counts in the Western World we should ban tight jeans.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,453 ✭✭✭Shenshen

    In a world with a population heading towards 7 billion, we should probably endorse them any way we can.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 584 ✭✭✭dizzywizlw


    There are enough resources to support more than 7Billion, don't buy into the hipster crap. It's inequality and waste not scarcity. We should endeavour to out-breed the Greeks at least

    If youre talking about skin tight jeans then no but i do wear pretty slim fitting ones.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,293 ✭✭✭1ZRed


    They aren't for me because I look like a gobshíte in them and I've big thighs so it doesn't work. I mainly tried them on just to see what the fuss was about.

    I don't like the look of them, but with the amount of lads you see wearing them they don't all look so bad. The really skinny guys look like sticks in them and look bad to me but it can suit some more average built men and they look grand.

    Each to their own. It's hard not to pass a bit of judgment but they're just getting caught up in the style and seeing what many other lads do.

    In a way it's better than being on the other scale of things thinking you're more a man for not caring what you look like or dressing well. It's a retarded thing to think you get your manliness from what you wear or don't wear.

    I get my sense of manliness/masculinity from how I behave and what I do than stupid stuff like this.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,314 ✭✭✭sink


    No, nothing against the people who wear them but IMO they look ridiculous, why anyone would want to dress like Russell Brand is beyond me.

    but you're hardly the kind of endorsement they're looking for! and pretty much the only endorsement, just goes to show.

    they were the streetwise choice, not so long ago and a far cry from the campus hipsters and one directions of today. Once, warriors wore them.. and nikki sixx types like op. the mandatory track pants of the eighties and that's how I still fondly remember em.
