Spent my entire adult life so far finding the perfect (PERFECT) slim fit jeans and trousers and suddenly bam, everyone's wearing the baggy jeans I wore in highschool.

@JamesLeung 5 месяцев назад

Haha just keep wearing what you like man! Anyway, slim is coming back this year 🙌

@oasisbeyond 3 месяца назад

Wear slim normal or buyba size up. So if 28 buy 29.

@Pavel__Shin 8 месяцев назад

Hi James! Wanna thank you for the Carhart Jane Pants introduction. I have about the same frame as you, 175 cm and 65kg, so I got the same Carhartt Jane Pants size 28inch and they fit perfectly. This is the look I was looking for bootcut legs with slim and high rise. It's great that you demonstrate that female clothes may fit a man's style, not many fashion influencers do that!

@JamesLeung 8 месяцев назад

as a 5'8 guy i don't feel like this trend suits me, the wider proportions really accentuate a shorter frame

@JamesLeung 8 месяцев назад

I hear you man. If I was shorter I probably wouldn’t go super baggy - maybe just a loose fit. But still with a cropped top, it could still work!

@Spudurmun 8 месяцев назад

I'm 5'8 too and a cropped top does help balance things out

@UnimportantAcc 8 месяцев назад

5'7 here and i honestly find straight fits wide enough

@alkibiadespapaparaskevopou8278 8 месяцев назад

Make sure the trousers are towards the high waisted mark, especially if you have a longer torso and shorter legs. I am 6.1 but my height is not ...all legs, and I find that a high waist not only balances the torso to legs ratio but gives the illusion of more height.

@enan1468 8 месяцев назад

Im around 5 ft 8 too. Loose fit and wider trousers suit me well. I go for mid rise or high rise trousers and with cropped top, my legs look longer. The trousers also sit and break over the shoes.

@HarryHas 8 месяцев назад

@pistolen87 8 месяцев назад

To clarify, you shouldn't use your total body height, you should measure from your shoulder to the floor. I'm 190 cm tall/3= Top 63.3 cm long, bottom 126.66 cm long. Measured from the floor, my pants will sit 6 cm above my belly button. The length from my shoulder to the floor is 168 cm/3=56 cm long top, 112 cm long bottom. This measurement is basically right at my hips, where my pants sit. Still, I find this measurement a bit off for untucked jackets and shirts, I want them to be slightly longer than right at the hips, so I use the golden ratio (1,618) that generates a bit different results than the rule of thirds. 168/1,618= 104 cm. I.e. the bottom of my jacket is 104 cm from the floor.

@JamesLeung 8 месяцев назад

Dang yeah good point man, I should have been a bit clearer 👍 I use it as a guide but I don’t mind if it’s exact, so like you said sometimes I’ll have pieces a bit shorter or a bit longer

@pistolen87 8 месяцев назад

@@JamesLeung Yes, it's an easy and useful rule to use when shopping. I have altered the length of several shirts and jackets because they were too long, so I've thought about this topic a lot.

@royceburger7929 8 месяцев назад

Can you simplify this? My comprehension is a bit low😅

@pistolen87 8 месяцев назад

@@royceburger7929 Measure your body from the floor up to your shoulder. Divide that length with 1,618. The result is the length of the bottom part of your outfit.

@tenfootalice 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for for the vid! 👍The usual advice re: choosing a pair that fit you properly makes complete sense to me, but I still shrink a bit when I hear it, because I'm yet to find a pair of jeans that I can wear without a belt! My quads grew rather substantially when I was 16 due to my swimming training. I have narrow hips (for a woman) and a narrow waist, meaning that anything that fits me around these areas I can't fit my legs into. I've not club swum for absolutely years, but the other stuff I do means that those thighs aren't going to lessen in size significantly 😒

@JamesLeung 8 месяцев назад

Ah yeah that sounds quite difficult to find a pair that will fit! So you might be better off sizing up and then getting a tailor to take in the waist?

@tenfootalice 8 месяцев назад

Ugh. Again, sensible in principle, but I think I'm cursed - The last time I took some items to a 'tailor', they managed to completely bodge the job. These were a pair of jeans and a pair of velour bottoms that I needed shortening. They couldn't even manage to do what I presume to be the most basic of tailoring work without making a complete mess. Maybe surgery is the answer 😄

It took me a little time to convert my fitting jeans to a more baggy size. I just couldn’t get used to it, but I persisted because I started to feel the slim fit jeans were so outdated and I wanted a new look, eventually I got more used to it and now all I have are wider pants and wider jeans. They fit me much better.

I have experienced it in the late 80s and 90s while listening to New Kids on The Block, thinking I wore the coolest style on earth listening to the dopest music in the world... later I knew both claims were wrong and I don't need to revisit it, to me straight or slim on the thigh and straight from mid tight down to the hem with some break on the shoe is timeless and probably the only pant style I will wear until the day I would be raptured or laid down in a casket

@balazs7235 24 дня назад

I remember when I was like 13 and I first tucked in my shirt/tee. I only remembered tucked in tops as being nerdy, but I had this idea that it might look good if the fit is good. My friends were looking at me, like what the hell am I doing. That looks weird. Then slowly everyone realized that it actually looks way better and more stylish. My best friend even commented, that after a while, he started doing it too and realized it looked so much better. 13-14 year old me was PROUD! He would be even prouder now, knowing how far I went, wearing skirts, Rick Owens Kiss heels and such without hesitation lol. Embrace that inner voice in you!

@nym5qu17 7 месяцев назад

heavily disagree here, sleek shoes look way better with wide pants than chunky ones. the contrast is very flattering in most cases and helps to balance the visual weight/heirarchy. You can either de-emphasize the wide pant with chunky shoe or emphasize it with a more narrow one.

Hi James. I really like that baggy jeans are back in fashion! I personally love if baggy pants or jeans are shortened/cropped and it works really well with skinny shoes fx a pair of converse.
