I do not mind them on anyone.
Then again I do not know much about fashion. As I walk around downtown at lunch it astounds me that suddenly half the males feel the need to wear the dress pant version of skinny jeans with super tight shirts. Some of these hotshots are now sporting the "flood" pants with the light brown shoes and stupid goofy socks..
They all have the same look. Tight pants, low belt with back fat and the gut being held back by the overly tight shirt. (and maybe a stupid looking beard) I am not sure how some of these people can even bend over or sit down in their office chairs without cutting off circulation.
It is especially awful when the person in question is 20-50 pounds overweight, and they still chose to wear "slim fit' clothes. This reminds me of the muffintop era.
In protest we should start wearing overalls again (maybe Gopheralls) like the farmers used to do, but in the professional workplace. It would be about as appropriate as these clown clothes the Hubert White crowd is wearing downtown now, and a lot more comfortable.
