George at Asda straight with stretch, £14. You can't try them on and the fit varies a bit. I bought 3 pairs recently, 2 of which are the best fits I've had for years, the other one a bit less so, but OK and will do for gardening. Range of colours - I bought blue, black and grey. Quality is surprisingly good, bargain imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tell the missues that the extra size is required in the front and not the waist. Not sure why she keeps laughing at me though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The dastardly red Posted July 20, 2021 Report Share Posted July 20, 2021 About two years ago the incredibly skinny jeans were a thing for gentlemen. That fashion seems to have passed thankfully. Some of my London connections tell me that ridiculously massive jeans are all the rage in Shoreditch at the moment. That and crop tops for men. I always doubt that these fads will take off but then they go and become a thing. Good luck if they do fellas, you're going to look like idiots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As explained to me by one of the blokes in Dulay down Broadmead (which, incidentally is the best place for the average person to buy jeans and they have a huge selection and know their fit/sizing so just say the sort of thing you want and within a couple of minutes, they'll have half a dozen pairs for you to try). As for the cheaper materials, I was told that in Europe/rest of the world (bar, basically the deep south of the states), the clothes are fashion items, in some of the southern states they are still seen as workwear.
