Why Do People Wear bootcut jeans?

[bailey_187]

whenever i go to certain clubs i always see guys dressed in boot cut jeans

who still thinks they look good?

obviously some people arent botherd about how they look and thats cool if thats them but im not on about them kind of people. people im on about probably think they are "good dressers"

thse people will spend lots of money on G-Star or some other rebore shit brand thats expensive but wear weird looking bootcut jeans, often over those tiny plimsol shoes :lol:

[Quail]

Perhaps I don't actually know what bootcut jeans are, but I imagine they'd look pretty ridiculous over plimsol shoes. If you're going to wear bootcut jeans, wear them with... boots? Sometimes skinny jeans are difficult to get over my boots so I can see why they might be practical.

Loads of "fashionable" outfits look pretty ridiculous. The people you're talking about will really cringe when they look back at photos of themselves in a few years. :lol:

[the last donut of the night]

skinny jeans ftw dude

[gorillafuck]

Google images tells me that bootcut jeans are the same as bell bottoms. Is this correct?

[Wanted Man]

I never need bootcut jeans because I don't wear boots. Surely one of the ugliest trends in men's fashion: those low little boots that they all wear at the moment. The only thing worse is men in Uggs (or anyone in them, for that matter, but men wearing them are especially bad).

[The Fighting_Crusnik]

I wear boot cut jeans because they're comfortable :D

[Il Medico]

Perhaps I don't actually know what bootcut jeans are,
They're slightly wider at the bottom to fit over boots.

[Il Medico]

Google images tells me that bootcut jeans are the same as bell bottoms. Is this correct?
No where near as big.

[Quail]

They're slightly wider at the bottom to fit over boots.
That's what I was thinking of. They don't flare out too much do they? Like this:

[Magón]

I never understood why anybody wore them in the first place. Just wear normal jeans. :rolleyes:

[The Douche]

Straight leg, slight taper, slim cut. One or two cuffs. Selvedge and raw.

Only correct way to wear jeans.

[Il Medico]

That's what I was thinking of. They don't flare out too much do they? Like this:
http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcTnuipt5NzoPin7GxHycm75zkHT_vbE9 wJlR3QiAw2FmUApSRJS Yeah, they're just a little baggy at the bottom if you not wearing boots.

[Political_Chucky]

Just stick with some 501's and you'll be ok:cool:

What is that monstrosity?

[Angry Young Man]

My bf dragged me into topman the other day and trust me, they were the least stupid trousers there. There's one designed to look like a carrot or something and there are arc trousers. And worst of all, they were selling braces (suspenders to Americans. Strips of elastic that you buckle onto your beltline and wear over your shoulders.) Hipsters are not allowed to wear braces. I have proof that I've been wearing them a while. And there are supposed to be three buckles! Not four! It should make a Y-shape on your back

[Aloysius]

Jeans are jeans, I don't care what they look like, so long as they fit.

yeah yeah this is what im on about

who the fuck think that looks good? :laugh:

[KC]

People wear boot cut jeans because:

1. They are an idiot and don't know anything about jeans.
2. They are wearing boots.

98% of the time it's #1.


I never need bootcut jeans because I don't wear boots. Surely one of the ugliest trends in men's fashion: those low little boots that they all wear at the moment. The only thing worse is men in Uggs (or anyone in them, for that matter, but men wearing them are especially bad).

WTF are you talking about? Oh and Uggs surprisingly makes slippers that are comfy as HELL (and don't look like shit).



Google images tells me that bootcut jeans are the same as bell bottoms. Is this correct?

Bell bottoms flare out at the bottom. Boot cut jeans are tapered from the knee down to be able to contain boots.




BTW whoever posted JNCO's wins the innernette. :D

[Angry Young Man]

Why do they not tuck their jeans into their boots? Are we not talking about hi-rise boots here? Why not!

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

who gives a shit?

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

you smug fucks, evidently
with your posh fucking skinny jeans
and your ridiculous fashion snobbery
fuck off the lot of you

[bcbm]

sounds like something a bootcut jean wearer would say

[Quail]

with your posh fucking skinny jeans

Skinny jeans don't have to be expensive or posh, you know...

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

fashion snobbery is a form of classism

lol, hows the plimsols and bootcuts bruh?


this aint a snobbery thing. like i said, most man wearing bootcuts also got on some shit but super expensive G-Star shirt and Superdry plimsols

[bailey_187]

no its not. you want it to be so u can have a rant.

Fuck you I look down on people for how they dress all the time.

But tonight I have to wear track pants out cause all my jeans are to tight and feel uncomfortable on my new tattoo.:blushing:

[Political_Chucky]

Was that an attempt so that we would ask you about your new tattoo? I will not do it! NEVER

[Quail]

Oh, go on. I'm sure he's itching to tell everyone about it. :lol:

[TC]

It seems weird for people to both claim they don't care/know about fashion and then to obsess over what style of jean someone is or should wear instead of just taking what feels comfortable, looks good, and is cost effective, without a thought to how its classified.

you live in sao paulo, ffs

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

what does that even mean?

[KC]

Because for some boots that isn't either feasible or sensible.

[the last donut of the night]

very true. all my family's in rio, but most of my family is composed of women, and they're all kind of batshit insane. but the men are very creepy, racist, or both



it's a lovely place but if i were even a moderately attractive woman i would avoid it like the plague

i go to rio fairly often to visit family, and it's not that lovely. not sure if you know the neighborhoods, but copacabana -- where my gramma lives -- is kind of a musky refuge for middle class old people and drunks, and leblon, where the rich part of my family dwell, is just snobby as fuck. sure, it doesn't smell and is fairly clean, but it's horribly over-priced and filled to the brim with rich assholes.

and women seem to fare just as well (or badly) there as they do here in brasilia, IMO

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

fucking of course i know copacabana and leblon
yeah brazil is far more racist than the US
the sef proclaimed racial democracy is strictly divided by skin color and class
south side of rio is utter shit for bourgie pricks

Yeah, now I see a difference. The second pair of pants are way too long, looks pretty impractical if you ask me.

The first pair of pants looks too "hippy-ish" for my taste, though.

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

oh god is this still going on? if you're ever in town i'll take you down to the slums so you can tell all the starving people clothed in rags that they don't know how to dress because their jeans aren't fashionably tailored

As has already been pointed out, dressing well needn't have anything to do with money, and many people who wear bootcut jeans tend to pay quite a lot for them. G-Star Raw boot cuts can cost well over £100 despite being absolutely disgusting, and people who wear them tend to think that they are the creme de la creme of fashion. It's the same with those Ed Hardy t-shirts (people who wear boot cuts seem to often wear Ed Hardy) - they look awful and they are expensive.

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

yeah you should tell that to the people who haul shit for a living so they can afford to live in drug infested rodent ridden crowded tenements and barely feed themselves

also please note:

Thats the point...regular pants have a regular leg opening or a tapered one, bootcuts are flared, like a hippy's pants.

[Pirate Utopian]

God I hate that Ed Hardy shit. Most of those people who have that shit are pricks too.

[ed miliband]

Had a really awkward moment when I was out with a friend and he took off his sweater/jumper to reveal that he was wearing some sort of sub-Ed Hardy shit (I think it was from some sort of street fighting brand). Oh man. I made a thread on another forum asking people how to approach this, whether I should tell him how bad it looks; luckily he hasn't worn that shit since and I didn't need to say anything.

[Il Medico]

Also, people, thrift stores are your friends. You don't have to spend a fortune to dress nicely.

so it's snobbery to laugh at people who spend hundred plus quid on shit jeans? :confused:

this. not all thrift stores are hipsters' wet dreams; most, in fact, are moldy old places filled with XXL wolf camping shirts and jeans that smell like shit

[Quail]

Sometimes second hand places have nice stuff in, but it's never in my size and I have to spend ages in there to find anything.

[Dr. Rosenpenis]

if i wanna save money on clothes it's still easier to go somewhere like walmart or cheap local places in the neighborhood than thrift stores
unless you're a self indulgent bourgie lifestylist shitbag, of course

Used to go all the time when I was a punk. My friend went recently and found some nice brogues, but he's into preppy fashion.

I do go sometimes and find cool crewneck sweatshirts, like, weird ones from the 80s of various beer/liquor brands with goofy designs or weird color schemes or whatever.

There is also a secondhand shop in my town that only buys like, designer clothes and then resells them. My boy got a northface parka there for $50, I was fucking pissed, shit regularly goes for like $300. I sold that store some fake nikes and fake bapes though.:lol:

Sartorialist style is influenced by prep. You know I mean prep as in ivy league style, not like, whatever high school kids call "preppy" now. The people in your pictures are obviously influenced by the preppy style.



No because you think any of that shit you listed is stylish.

Clearly, since you hang around the sartorialist we have different ideas on what is stylish. But to deny that streetwear/urban style is "stylish", well, thats just dumb.

I have a nice pair of loafers, I have some oxfords, I have khakis, but that stuff is not my regular style.

The fact that you think an individual piece necessarily falls into a certain category is as absurd as thinking that individual words have inherent meaning outside their context.

I'll leave it for others to judge my social skills, but I either wear my hair very short, or these days long enough for a ponytail. I only tuck my shirt in if I'm wearing a suit or at work.
