*Those red trousers*

msmancunia

Looks like Marmite - you either love them or hate them. It's even got in the Guardian ... http://www.guardian.co.uk/fashion/2012/ ... d-trousers

AND there's a V funny website which I can't paste as the swear filter will probably change it but is something along the lines of lookatmyf***ingredtrousers.com

Anything to add, Rick Chasey?

*even* got in the Guardian? I'd have thought the commie hipsters* that read the Grauniad would have pioneered red trousers.

* I might read the Guardian. I do not wear red trousers however

I've been wearing my red/burgundy trousers yesterday and today as they are easier than jeans to do up one handed. Blue moleskins today as I'm at work.

Perhaps it's only Grauniad-reading bien pensants who give a rats about the colour of their trousers?

The writer has it right.

I like to sit in between the Euro indifference, the King's road chin, and the hipster wankerishness.

And yes. Avoid double denim. Always.

Aren't red trousers only to be worn by people that have sailed across the Atlantic?

Springsteen did not pull off the look.

To consider him as someone to take sartorial cues from is to have particularly low self esteem.

C'mon, the do-rag hanging from the rear pocket of the faded and torn jeans on the cover of 'Born in the USA' was a seminal fashion statement.

"edgy and dull, like a freight train running through the middle of my skull hmm hmm, baby I'm on fire"

Oh yeah!

Mind you, recent stuff smells like a pamphlet from Home Security used to give a vagrant a bed bath.

Now, back to red troosers. Have you sailed the Atlantic Rick?

Not the best picture to use. The blokes look like they got dressed in the dark.

Mrs BBGEek has crossed the Atlantic, can I now wear her pants?

I'm afraid I associate red trousers with hoorays, Kings Road, rugby shirts and other intolerable things.
Unacceptable.
