mens fashion trends

can't lie-
I like the whole trend of women in tights and a tee shirt, its hot-
but I don't see myself partaking in the freedom and comfort-

Leggings for men: do you like my 'meggings'? | Fashion | The Guardian


Meggings, the fashion press alleges, are the next male trend: the Telegraph says they are "taking the fashion world by storm" – a storm that has already, according to the Mail, taken the whole city of New York. Metaphorically speaking. Now, we hear, said storm is heading for Britain (Uniqlo and Nordstrom are among the brands already stocking them). It is in testing this outlandish claim that I find myself shivering next to Regent's Canal, wearing a pair of black, skin-tight leggings emblazoned with the brand Boy London's logo. Can these ball-crunching jodhpur variants really be the next thing in male fashion, I ask Albus, a balding builder from Lithuania?

I'm not surprised. It doesn't take much to get from

Thank goodness I'm just not that fashion conscious.

I'm not an urbanite meterosexual man, and never will be. Out on the farm I wear jeans, boots, and either flannel or sweatshirts....comfort and durability are my only concerns, I could care less about fashion, i'm going to be warm.

I think I'd constantly be adjusting my "package" for maximum public viewing pleasure.

I have "Meggings". Been wearing them for years. Usually only when it gets to -40. They come in white (when new), grey and black.

I have worn the same fashion since I was old enough to buy my own clothes. Jeans & t-shirt. If I have to "dress up", Dockers and a shirt with buttons.

I HATED the 70s bell bottoms and the wide cuffs on pants. For a while it was hard to find normal jeans. Only 501 with button flies were normal. I never liked 501 because of the stupid buttons. Zippers work fine, use em.

No.

Athletic wear in an athletic event, no problem. But this look is just flat nasty. Also not a fan of the super skinny guy jeans with the great big feet at the end.

Sorry - guess I'll never be a fashion fiend.

ROFL. And exactly my thought. They look faaaaaaaaabulous! I'm pretty content as a heterosexual knuckle-dragger, thanks.

It's the emasculation of males in our society and fashion only reflects this trend.
