what are the thoughts on leather pants/jeans/joggers on dudes.

wack?

sexually questionable?

sleazy?

hot?

all of the above

lately i've been enamored by the idea of leather pants, primarily owing to the OG leather bonanza of trussardi from years past:

http://www.dazeddigital.com/fashion/article/9301/1/trussardi-menswear-a-w11

and things of a sweatpanty-faux-moto-douche balmain nature

it's reaching critical mass here at chez mac, and i'm looking to you, neogaf, for insights on how leather pants are viewed in the larger context of society.

bless,

macuser

Bleh.

Denim all day.

 

[darscot]

If your not a front man you look like a tool.

 

[freenudemacusers]

Bleh.

Denim all day.

i should probably also add I've reached total denim/pants saturation, and this would be a 'fun' item to drag out for soirees and other indulgent city capers.

 

[BennyBlanco]

hell naw

 

[commedieu]

Its a cool look, wish it breathed.

 

[Freshmaker]

If you're riding a horse, OK.

 

[SJRB]

Are you Mad Max?

If no, then no. Fuck no.

 

[Ganzlinger]

Only if it doesn't look like leather pants

 

[umop_3pisdn]

are u a warlock from a 1990s fantasy pulp/network drama.

jk I'm sure some kinds are ok.

 

[DeathoftheEndless]

Tacky.

 

[Rabbi_Vole]

Skin's a lot like leather. Just walk around pantless.

 

[kirblar]

Are you a rock star?

If yes, rock out!

If no, you're Ross.

 

[Grakl]

They look good in that pic. I'm not opposed.

 

[Razmos]

I had no idea that leather joggers were a thing. Jesus christ, leather pants looked stupid enough to begin with.

It looks like he's wearing a bin bag.

 

[True Savior]

As long as you carry baby powder with you.

 

[Count Dookkake]

I used to have a couple pairs. Girls seemed to like them. Definitely sleazy and hot.

Considering getting a new pair.

 

[LyleLanley]

Perfect summer wear.

 

[King Cobra]

I cannot see an occasion where I myself would ever consider putting on leather pants other than halloween.

 

[Currygan]

I would probably look like this, so nope

[AlexBasch]

While I'm not a bear, I have a regular amount of hair in my already thick thighs. It would be a fucking disaster.

I had no idea that leather joggers were a thing. Jesus christ, leather pants looked stupid enough to begin with.

Those look like plastic trash bags.

 

[Randomizer]

[RangersFan]

edit: damn beaten.

 

[the_sun_king]

Maybe if I were a K-Pop idol...

 

[Mesoian]

I'm fine with it.

But I'm also not going to wear them.

 

[EulaCapra]

But they give men sweaty balls!

So yes, I'm a huge fan.

those are kinda garbage-y looking due to poor material. i am aiming for more of something like this:

Are you Mad Max?

If no, then no. Fuck no.

Tom Hardy... is that you???

Is that a ToJ bomber?

Btw you look like Tom Hardy.

Dude looks like Tom Hardy, no wonder.

Is that what they are called in the US? we call them bin bags in the UK.

either way, yes, that's what it looks like :/
Fashion these days. Fashion any days. jeez.

If you are really considering getting some leather pants, I would go for some that aren't tight. But that's just me.

I don't have anything against leather jeans, though. I've seen many people pull it off.

 

[John Kowalski]

They look cool. Wouldn't wear them. I live in a sunny country so it would probably be hell to wear leather pants on any standard day.

 

[siddx]

Terrible. But leather pants are terrible on everyone, all I can think when I see them is "you have a sweaty hot box of sorrow in your crotch right now."

 

[Kittygirl]

I don't care what anyone says, even Jim Morrison couldn't pull these off.

 

[DOWN]

I'm gonna vote no on leather pants for men, but...

 

[Sai-kun]

hot/sexually questionable. which, in my mind, is really the way everybody should dress all the time every day.

 

[freenudemacusers]

I used to have a couple pairs. Girls seemed to like them. Definitely sleazy and hot.

Considering getting a new pair.

share some leather pants experiences so i can live vicariously for the moment

 

[DOWN]

Is this better?

 

[Razmos]

Is this better?

Good for flashers I suppose.

 

[impact]

"the sweat and powder have formed to make some kind of paste"

 

[freenudemacusers]

Is this better?

the op contains balmain and trussardi, as if I'm going to be schlepping about in mall matrix cosplay leathers

 

[FallingEdge]

op you look like the guy in your topic picture

 

[pj]

Is this better?

Is this two children trying to get into a bar?

 

[TTOOLL]

I'm laughing out loud at this thread, I don't know why!


btw, no leather pants, please.

 

[Dougald]

Acceptable if wearing as protective gear and you're just about to get on your motorcycle, otherwise, no. Some people can pull it off though I guess.

 

[Snuggles]

I've never seen it not look like try hard dorkiness in real life situations.

 

[……forgetit]

No one should ever wear leather pants, regardless of gender.

 

[Rabbi_Vole]

What if the skin on our legs is just leather pants and our real legs are underneath? Maybe that's why our legs stink so bad and stuff.

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

How do you even wash leather pants.

My reaction while reading OP:

I am very old.

 

[Goldrush]

Always look tacky in photo, but I actually like it in real-life. Even saw leather button-up shirt and remember how odd it was that it didn't look weird. Never had the courage to try one on myself, though...
