    I teach high school. Several boys I've taught look like they raid their younger sisters' closets to pick out their clothes for the day.

    PFB, I'll think of you every time I tell them to buy some pants that fit. :razz:

    A picture is said to be worth more than a thousand words, so perhaps this might be more helpful PFB:

    Odd thread I know but when I thought I better update the fashion and went shopping to buy jeans and sneakers and the whole shop had hardly any normal style of pants. Everything was skinny or taper'd lol. I ended buying a whole bunch just to go with the flow and since I have gotten home my wife keeps laughing at me when I model them :cheesygrin:


    OK, polkfarmboy, after you've sung soprano for a while and are ready to check out the jeans us REAL DUDES wear, I suggest the "5-Pocket Ballroom Jeans" for the Crouch Without The Ouch from the Duluth Trading Co. - http://www.duluthtrading.com/store/mens/mens-pants/mens-denim-jeans/mens-denim-ballroom-jeans.aspx?src=G041099&admkt=&s_kwcid=TC|8004|ballroom%20jeans||S||2965952341&gclid=CIKKifi68q8CFSFe7AodgEFZZQ

    Some much better pics posted here now...

    I have a hard time fitting into regular jeans never mind skinny ones. They don't make jeans for the tall folks.

    So's Brett Favre.


    I tried a pair of skinny jeans on once. The GF thought they'd look "cute". I ended up looking like I was wearing wrestling tights. I couldn't really bend my knees without the **** being dragged down to show my skivvies.

    To add insult to injury, I couldn't get them off. She had to pull them from bottoms of the pant legs.

    I'll stick with my regular, baggy jeans and be a fashion pariah.

    A "man crush"?

    Seriously?

    Do you watch football at all? Every game, every commercial break, there is a Wrangler Five Star Denim commercial with Brett Favre playing a game of pick-up football in the mud with dudes he wouldn't be caught dead with normally.

    Instead of Brett, it's Dale Jr during NASCAR races.

    No, no man crush. Sorry.

    The only way I could wear skinny jeans is if you were to sew three pairs together. I don't think they come in biggun.

    I will just stick with my Wranglers thank you.

    Jstas, That was a great story, it had to be both funny and embarrassing. I can see that happening to me.

    Yes, I've seen the commercials. Perhaps you've heard of this thing called humor, notice the silly little LOL smiley? Lighten up, don't take things so seriously, your blood pressure will thank you.:wink:(notice the silly little winking smiley?)
