    New offering from the new generation...

    Jeans with "dirt" built in to them...

    Enjoy.
    The dirt jeans are probably made for those guys who splash mud on their jacked up trucks, right?  But is anyone really clueless enough to spend hundreds of dollars on that kind of nonsense?

    But the rompers- eeyiiee!  Reminds me of something James Howard Kunstler once wrote about massively over-sized clothes that some guys were (and a few still are) wearing.  He said it was a graphic illustration of men today having difficulty growing up, that it's a subconscious move to remain a child.  So what's next, young men in diapers? 

    Each to his own I guess.  I don't judge what people wear individually, but I think it's worth looking at trends from a social perspective.  Where are were going, forwards or back?
    I do plan on rocking a Romper this summer, heheh!
    I would pay any one of my buddies $500 to wear one of those monstrosities and go bar hopping with me in Philly.  :rofl:

    I would so much rather guys wore dresses rather than kids clothes.  I mean really, tell me these guys aren't cool!

    seen those dirty jeans on the news a week or so ago. anyone purchasing a pair of dirt-jeans should literally be slapped the fuck out of. the individual that came up with such a thing should be ran over for 2 hours by a team of sled dogs & a drunken musher covered in filthy mountain-man type clothing stinking of whiskey & his own shit

    Seems a little excessive for poor fashion sense. Especially given that I have that, too.

    I personally want to rock the Romper this year.  I figure the entertainment value for years to come is worth it.

    Howie Mandell wore one of these on Ellen last week. Never. Just like tight jeans or V neck t-shirts..Never.

    I don't care what anyone wears or listens to or buys... just as long as you don't stink! My god, people are stinky this year. I am pretty sure it's the stinkiest year so far in my lifetime.
    ^^This. Holy hell!  :sick:

    They're in style now Chadwick. You better get on that before you miss the fashion boat.

    I don't think they are in style yet but are being talked about.  

    This shit won't last...

    (that is so not what she said)

    Is there a zip-fly in case it does?

    I do like his moccasins, though.

    I would wear a romper to work for an entire week (and launder it midweek so I don't stink) but there''s one catch:  I would have to be paid $10,000 to do so.

    I do like these new track pants with elastic at the ankles and are technically Slim Fit. I found a couple of pairs of Reebok's and Adidas while shopping yesterday and they're quite comfortable. They're not tight, so they get a pass.

    I'd maybe do it for $50k.  Maybe.
