Modern jeans are terrible. I need your help/advice.

Some people have acidic groin sweat and it rots cotton at a fair old rate .

What???
never heard of that

maybe I have acidic knee sweat

I am the OP of this thread and I've found the solution - Slim Fit. For a long time I didn't consider them coz I expected they'd be similar to skinny. But no, they actually fit! A revelation!

And so the question is: what cut of jeans fits the arse like a slim but affords a little bit more room for the legs?

I going to make a presumption here as I don’t know your gender. But I would suggest your missus’s stretch jeans.😉

Don;t tell me flares are coming back!!!
I only threw my last ones out a year or so ago

TBF I only ever wore them with wellies and for gardening so they were tucked into the wellies

but they were waist 32 inches - which means the waist was over my hip bones


they were cool at the time!!!

Hmm, we're getting into odd territory here. I am a fella. Banish any ideas that I want a tight fit per se.

*In the 90s I did suggest to my then girlfriend that she try men's jeans. She did and was well chuffed with them.

Ahem, a little more room

I haven't worn jeans in literally decades. I just don't get on with them and can't be bothered shopping around until I find the 'right' brand/cut/fit whatever. I just find them too heavy, too stiff, too ungainly. I buy cotton trou off the rack at C&A, good enough fit and right leg length. No messing, job done.

I hardly wear anything else

unless I am going out for dinner with someone special
(i.e. my wife)

and even then she often tells me to just wear a clean pair!

Yep, jeans in the garden, jeans in the office (ie at work), jeans at rest, jeans in the pub. I just change the colour.


I'm a sort of anti-accy.

May possibly apply to many of us on this thread
