I've always rocked regular or baggy. It's a comfort and practicality thing. Having skinny jeans takes away the point of denim being durable and warm, something it needs to be loose for.

I feel colder in loose jeans. air gets in.
Aye, but in colder temperatures tight denim cools over leaving no air pocket to trap body heat or improve wind resistance. There's no one on this planet that can generate body heat on such a level it can counters the atmosphere, so creating a little atmosphere inside the denim with loose jeans is the next best thing. It's the same concept as single vs double glazed windows.
If you want tight pants in cold climate, need to use high textured material likecorduroy or fleece, otherwise add a thermal base layer under the denim.
We’re already moving onto skinnier but flared styles. Skinny skinny is next.
The skinny jeans era was a nightmare of elasticated crap that died on contact with a washing machine. We’d better not have to go back to seeing everyone’s pants over their low waistline though.
I don't wanna see no buttcracks peaking at me
Someday we'll return to better times
So this is what people mean when they say that the pendulum has swung too far
Are the steps in between filled with bootcut jeans and flared pants?
It gets weird in the gaps; kilts, parachute pants, togas
At no point will it be at the actual best point: straight cut. They're perfect. They show off ripped leg muscles without ripping or looking painted on.
When's bell bottoms?
Hopefully never again
I found one during winter and have been wearing it as much as possible.
I love the freedom of movement and "airiness".
Cool nuggets
It's always been baggy for me, I like the swishing around my ankles XD

I hate the feel of loose fabric on me. If I wasn't born male, I'd wear leggings.

Joggers broke me out of the cycle, free your mind
I've been sceptical of joggers at first, but now I cannot imagine wearing or buying anything else. a string instead of a button is such a quality of life improvement on its own.
They're like modern day utility pants! Plus you can get them with fleece lining which is god tier for winter
The droopy crotch on most joggers is really annoying for me. I like a more loose fit around the thighs but not MC Hammer levels of loose.
My gf says the same thing. She thinks they're comfy but she cant wear them as part of an outfit. I'm sure if someone made joggers without the hang they'd get plenty of customers. I'm surprised nobody has tried yet, its like the only legitimate complaint I hear from people about them lol
Clothing and other things trend about every 30 years. And it's driven by nostalgia. As you approach your 40s you'll start seeing things that were popular when you were 10 and it makes you want to buy it, even if it's a dumb nik-nak.
Resist nostalgia purchases, folks.
I never stopped playing Mortal Kombat 1-3. It’s hard to get someone nostalgic for a time they never left haha.
I do have the arcade machine now though. My wife spoils me.
As for my clothes, I’ve smoked, drank, and done way too many drugs to actually look youthful. When old folks tell me that I look younger than I am, I tell them it’s because I’m wearing the same clothes I bought 20 years ago and I look like a college age millennial because of that, and their sense of time is off.
I just buy what's comfy. And cheap. Most of all, I buy the first pair that fits. Who has time to worry about style, really?
I went baggy back in the 00s and I'm NEVER going back. 'Straight cut' is as baggy as I'll wear em. Love those baggy pants on my SO though 😍
We are in the "fashion just makes it harder to move", era
I’m looking forward for the baggy jeans trend. I don’t want to see the outline of anyone’s dick.
Is there some emo enclave of washed up millennials in your area or something?
Finally
We are all dependent on Mr. Mugato’s choices
LET'S GO!!
