I need help buying pants

[Guest wildpegasus]

So I wrecked 3 pairs of pants the other day and as a result need to replace at least 1 or 2 of them. The problem is I hate pants that are too tight around the legs. I tend to have a little bit of a problem as the waist will fit fine but not the legs as the material from the pants will be too tight around them. That's great and all for showing off the BUTT but I need something that's light, durable and nontight. Something that's not restrictive when you're exercising though they can't be too loose either. Can anyone help me? I was looking today for pants but couldn't find anything to meet the criteria.

How do you wreck 3 pairs of pants in 1 day?

 

What a strange man, you are.

I don't know. I found it on a teenager sight when I accidently clicked on a link. People in a different thread were guessing from around 16 to 26 I think. She sould be 18+ because everything on that site was supposed to be.

Well, I put a bunch of clothes in the washing machine and went to put in some detergent. However it was empty so I just picked up the container beside it and put that into the machine. It had a picture of clothes on the back of it so I didn't really think more than twice or 3 times about it. The liquid I put in the machine was bleach.

 

 

I can't believe nobody has declared this thread pants free yet especially since Bob Barron's arrived. I guess there musn't be any deathvalley readers here. I can honostly say I'm not wearing any pants right now.

 

Back to the topic at hand, this is something that's frustrating for me. I still have an awesome pair of dresspants that fit the bill perfectly but I don't know where those came from.

I can't believe you mistook bleach for regular detergent. Christ, even I know the difference.

 

Go to Old Navy or Target or something. I get most of my clothes from either place.

None of those places are around here. If I ever see one of their stores though I'll make sure to check it out.

Just about any atheletic pants will fit your critera or shorts...

 

And you should word that a little better "I wrecked 3 pairs of pants"...creates an entirely wrong interpretation but I'm sure you wanted us to interpret it wrong anyways.

YOU BRING ABSOLUTLELY NOTHING OF VALUE. NOTHING.

It sounds like you're going to have to find a store that sells pants and go try them on. Its not that hard.

Damn, that was going to be my answer...

[Black Lushus 0]

I don't get what he's asking for...try boot cut or carpenter jeans if you don't want the legs to feel tight...is that what you're wanting to know, WP?

[the max 0]

Maybe he's too lazy to try them on as well.

Whoa, whoa, whoa - slow down. Let me write this stuff down.

Maybe he thinks if we talk about pants enough, a pair of them will materialize around his legs!

 

 

DENNNNNNNNNNNNNIMMMMMMMMMMMM

But if you buy them and they turn out to be wrong, don't wear them when you go back to return them. You'll slip and fall in mud, thus ruining the very pants you were going to return.

In fact, you're better off never wearing the pants ever, since they'll be ruined.

 

My pants ruin story:

 

In honors chemistry, a girl squirted my pants with sulfuric acid. She said it was water. She was wrong. As I was lifting boxes off a truck for a fundraiser pick-up day, my pants started crumbling.

My pants ruin story:

 

I was in the lunchroom in 9th grade, and I was going through an 80s phase, so I was wearing white jeans. They bet me I couldn't do 100 sit ups, so I said "Right now, bitch!" and I got down and had somebody hold my feet. I had just eaten so on every sit up I farted right in the guy's face who was holding my feet. Everbody was laughing, but he kept holding them and I just kept going. 100! I won, but apparent;y I had also been shitting in my pants. This was why the guy didn't move when I was farting on him, he wanted me to humiliate myself.

Big shit stain in my white jeans. Hundreds of people around. I took my shirt off and wrapped it around my waist. Like I said, I was in an 80s phase, so that worked. I walked out and went the fuck home. Got detention for skipping class, but was it worth it? Hell yeah.

Curses! I thought sulfuric acid couldn't be topped! Damn Milky

[Black Lushus 0]

no story will ever top that of a teenaged or older person shitting themselves...

It's pretty much a lost cause trying to top him. Whatever story you can come up w/, he's got a fucked up 1 that'll outdo it.

If you wore the jeans you were going to return when you went to the store...

 

What would you wear when you left the store?

[Black Lushus 0]

yeah, usually when i return clothing I'm not wearing them at the time...

Do you have an REI in your area? If so, that is wear you want to shop. Not only do they sell the highest-quality brands (I have a pair of North Face Paramount convertible pants that sound like the kind of thing you are looking for), but you can return ANYTHING, at any time, for any reason. I've worn shirts for a couple of months, then decided I don't like them and brought them back for a full refund. If you wreck something, just bring it back and get another or get you cash back.

Well, this is a Seinfeld reference, you see. And that was the gag on the show. Kramer gets asked the same thing, and he says: "Elaine, are you listening? I didn't even get to the store!"

I did and nothing would still fit right. That's why I came here for help. I've wrecked a lot of pants over the years thanks to working out (I've got a good gym story here but it's too embarassing to let out), nails sticking out of boards and barbedwire (the absolute worst for wrecking clothes)

I don't wear jeans. I've always hated them except when women are wearing them.

 

I currently take 32 inch pants for the waist and I'm 6 foot 1 inch tall. I'm not sure what my leg size is. The problem is I don't want the pants sticking to the legs too much when you're wearing them. Pants that would really let you do stretching without restricting you is what I want.

I love that episode! Can't wait for it to come out on DVD.. Must be a later season though.

Did you try stretch pants?

If you've got some cash to burn, you might want to try soft shell pants. Pants made of materials such as Polartec Power Shield and Power Stretch, Gore Windstopper Trango, or Schoeller Dynamic combine toughness and durability (they are typically made for mountain, ice and rock climbing) with 4-way stretch comfort, wind and water resistancy (typically they are treated with a DWR finish and are made of a windproof fabric such as those I named). The big disadvantage to these sorts of pants is cost: cheaper models such as the REI Mistral or North Face Apex pants usually run between 75 and 150 dollars. More expensive ones such as Arc'teryx Gamma or Mountain Hardware Alchemy pants cost between 200 and 300 a pair. Though if the Alchemys are anything like the jacket of the same name then they are probably worth the money.

Thanks for taking the time to write that out.
