Tight pants on men, yay or nay?

Also, if you wear high tops you should be punched in the face no less than 37 times per day.

87 if they're multi-colored as above.

Hey Kuya.

What if you're black?

Only black people I've ever seen with shoes like pic #4 were wearing pants like pic #4.

[Headspace]

hey man, I don't do it, but it can be done.

[Cairthenn]

Then you can steal a 38th punch.

2nd pic looks like a guy who knows how to dress well. The rest are creepy. Baggy jeans are for slobs, clean yourself up

I dunno man, you seen some of the old Jordan's?

[Kumbai]

There was a guy who came into my work today wearing epicly tight jeans... he wasn't exactly skinny either, had pretty fat legs lol. Was gross :3

The overly tight ones are ugly and just shouldn't happen. The bottom one on the OP is probably about as tight as they should be.. any tighter is just lol. Top pic is most attractive though on regular guys :3

Well, wearing 1990's jordans today would fall under the #4 pic.

[Hiryo]

#2 is the only acceptable image.
Anything else is trying too hard, sorry :\

If you can pull off skinny jeans, then I think it's OK. Most people I see can't and should be shot for subjecting my eyes to the horror.

#1 is the reason I fear skinny jeans.

there's nothing wrong with boot cut or relaxed fit jeans, baggy looks like shit but if a guy is in good shape the jeans can look really hot when they sit just below the hip.

Tight pants are uncomfortable to do anything but stand/sit, but if you've got a muscular butt and a large package they're a pretty decent way to show off the goods lol.

I've got two pairs of "skinny" jeans, but I know damn well enough to get them so they fit to look good, and not stupid.

In my mind, there's the bad kind of skinny jeans/tight pants of the variety that American Apparel (where else?) sells. Unless you weigh 120 lbs or less or have serious chicken legs, you end up with sausage legs - that is, fabric so tight, it makes your thighs and calves look like sausages in their (pants) casing. That's not good, but damned if some guys want to look like they will blow away in slight breeze.

Pants that fit "skinny" or "slim" should be tighter around the butt, crotch, and thighs to show off that you've got some muscle and other good bits going on. Obviously you don't want them vacuum sealed to your skin, but one should have a good range of motion. Unless you're wearing baggier pants, you won't be doing any squats or splits in them anyway.

If you're slim to athletic in build, wearing baggy clothing just makes you look fat, weak, and dumpy. Not everyone has tree-trunks for legs and gym rat abs and pecs, but if you're in good shape and feel like rocking the style then get some pants that show off what you've got.

Oh, and just as muffin tops are pretty gross on girls, the same goes for guys. If you've got a gut or some serious love handles, spare the skinny Nudie jeans. Man-muffin top is not something one should show off.

PS: I should say that I live in a part of Canada that has roughly 3 black people per 50,000 residents so my local sense of fashion doesn't intersect at all with that demographic or 'urban style'; can't think of any other way to put it. People around here either do the hippy- or working-man hipster thing, or are decked out in North Face and MEC gear. You can probably guess where my style originates.

my biggest complaint about boot cut jeans is that most manufacturers cut them wide in the lower leg, but them leave wayyyyy too much material in the crotch/thighs. Ideally for me at least, a boot cut jean should have a wider opening in the leg, somewhat tight in the thighs, and a shallow crotch to show off the goods/elongate the legs, and they should sit somewhere below the waist. Gap's boot cut are the only jeans I've ever found that fit all those criteria, and they're EXTREMELY flattering on most body types actually, too bad they're like $65 for a pair.

[Cadsuane]

Baggy clothes are for slobs. #2 is quite tasteful, #4 is only halfway acceptable on the model due to skinny fairy legs, also lack of bootleg or straight cut is mostly not acceptable. Tapered jeans are just too faggy and scene, sorry Kuya. If they become disassociated from hipsters and 20 years pass by after which they're marketed as breeches which is what they actually are, maybe not. Other two are comically bad, which is what they're intended to be I suppose.
