Well mine do a bit of both since they're tight jeans for women. The part below the knee tapers but then the bottom flares out a bit.
This is one of my favorite pics of John Kerry.
Pretty much defines him- from his jeans to the way he throws a football. The man isn't a real American.

That looks weird on dudes tho
But it's true. Okay mainly true if Reagan, Clinton and W Bush are the exceptions.
Bush looks cool...
What's interesting about that is you don't even need to see a pic of his dad in jeans to know he looks awkward in them.

In about 25 years most of us will be wearing jeans like them.

Not really. Not if the cut is done well.
Yeah the big issue is you can tell most are out of their element cause they get the big baggier jeans and frankly jeans arent supposed to be ultra baggy.
I know they pay people thousands of dollars to say hey this makes you more relatable to the common man but damn get some fashion sense involved

I don't get it. Obama is usually pretty stylish, I don't know why he wears such shitty jeans.
Bulbo, you're nuts on Romney vs Kerry, they both look like they're wearing stupidly expensive jeans and really similar to each other. In fact, it looks like they're even wearing the same belt in the left Romney picture.
Bush and Reagan are both pulling it off, going the cowboy route helps. Clinton just looks really old.

I've been into fashion more and more recently and I notice that political figures practically always look terrible when they're not in their inauguration-ready power suits. I guess that's largely on purpose like others have said but it does make me think 'come on dude, I know you can have one of your guys stop by Banana Republic or something for you one day'.

Also, dont tuck your shirt in when wearing jeans.
So... scrolling through, it looks like Republican candidates look OK in jeans and Democrats don't... not saying anything politically, just making an observation.
Republicans:
Bush - Bad ass
Reagan - Swag
Romney - OK
Democrats:
Obama - No
Clinton - OK at best
Kerry - Nobama
Someone's gotta find a pic from someone on the left lookin' BA in jeans... off to Google.

The better question is who does their shopping? Clearly that's the problem.

When you're trying to be fashionable you don't have to tuck, but when you're actually working in jeans you tuck because don't want your shirt to get caught in anything.
Bush looks good because he's a real cowboy. I think he's quite handsome.

These are one and the same. Bush is actually the most obvious exception to your first statement.
He left long enough to become a real man
It's the buckle.

Those are Magnum P.I. jeans. Bet both of those guys watched a lot of Magnum P.I.
W looks like he's wearing what men of his age might actually wear in Texas. Romney and Obama are dressed as suburban dads.
pretty sure he just fishes for that quote in every thread

look at this badass
All presidents do, and it's the stress of the job. They always get some bad city miles on them after they leave.
