Doing Asian-Style jeans

[sebbie]

Ha Ha 60 inches from head to toe. Actually I am amazed at how well these fit,..just as if they were made for me! in the summer, an aqux or seobean brief would be nice under the jeans.

OK - sorry for question - was sure it was a typo
(do you say drainpipes for the narrow ones in the US?)

[sebbie]

hadn't heard that term

[Byron]

This is from Strasbourg last year but the term goes back more than fifty years to the days of the Teddy Boys:

The shoes to go with them were https://encrypted-tbn1.gstatic.com/i...aht2rFCnQKvtKn

Those shoes are a bit wide for narrow-cut jeans..makes a guy look like a duck.
Adidas Samba indoor socker shoes work well, or just a simple canvas shoe

I've been a fan of narrow and tight jeans since I was only a wee lad...I thought they were way cool.

Teddy means Edward - the fashion started as a recreation of the elegance of the Edwardian period but then diversified all over the place - and the sartorial combinations came (often shockingly) thick and fast.
Nothing new in fashion of course - just wait a few years for a trend to reappear (I still await the massive hair quiff and the drape jacket collar in velvet)
