Fashion or Fashion Victim?

[mishalak]

It is one of my favorite games. I love different clothing, I love trying new things, but sometimes an experiment goes horribly wrong and Fashion turns to "What the hell was I thinking?"

I finally ran across something I have been thinking would be a good idea. Jeans with a pouch for the male equipment. But the execution looks a bit different than I imagined. The company is actually one right hear in Denver called Sport Jeans. Perhaps I was thinking of something slightly edgier looking than is displayed in the photos. I might buy a pair and see if they were worn slightly tight if the look might not improve.

Edit: The consensus seems to be "Victim" and in this case I agree with the group think. I'll simply have to learn how to use my mother's surger and build my own jeans. I'll probably steal ideas for the crotch area from the 2(x)ist contour boxer brief if I can figure out how to make those measurements work with a fly and in stiffer material.

They're not particularly 21st century... they look like old-style fall-front sailors trousers, only with one side of the front stitched up.

[mishalak.livejournal.com]

Yeah. That could still work if they looked more... dangerous.

The current Navy Enlisted Dress Blue Uniform features the 13-button Broad Fall trousers (http://westwing.bewarne.com/fourthquestions/images/13buttonpants_lg.jpg) that are a wider version of what I was thinking of. A more reasonable narrow-fall version can be found at Jas Townsend (http://jas-townsend.com/product_info.php?cPath=1_4&products_id=478).

I think their proposed leather jeans would be more... ...successful.

Then again, they would be competing with codpiece jeans (http://www.mr-s-leather.com/cgi-bin/mr-s/L61.html). It's not going to be a vanilla enough design to be everyday wear, and doesn't have any of the advantages of the codpiece...

I have to agree with the codpiece part. And I love their stud photos, where I'd like to see what they look like for real life too, i.e. with a shirt on. For me, a guy with tastes that run to comfortable rather than stylish, they look a little off to me. But then I;ll admit I have little style.

And is it just me or does the shirtless guy have the perfect cowboy body?

[mishalak.livejournal.com]

Well I might have done picture of them, but I've decided it was more "Victim" than "Fashion". So I'm going to build my own jeans.

Interesting. It might look better if the waist were lower.

[mishalak.livejournal.com]

That's it, that's what is wrong. Cut them low and they'd probably be cool. Brill suggestion!

[housespinner.livejournal.com]

Oh my! Wow...that...looks...interesting. :)

[mishalak.livejournal.com]

Yes, that's a phrase for it. The internet is an interesting place, intit?

Thank you for the porn. It brightened my evening after a day of wrestling with the WIP, wherein they are talking instead of shagging.

[mishalak.livejournal.com]

You're quite welcome.

Those jeans look as though they might be popular with slightly-long-in-the-tooth hustlers along Santa Monica Boulevard, in West Hollywood, but I'm not sure that's the Look you're aiming for.

[mishalak.livejournal.com]

Yeah... Good idea, less good of a look. Because really jeans are built for Ken Dolls, not men. They ought to have some... ease in the crotch for delicate parts. Those jeans just aren't what I'm looking for though.

[gomeza.livejournal.com]

Actually, I've occasionally had an interest in jeans with a pouch too, but I'm not convinced the Sport Jeans are really what I had in mind. For one thing, they don't seem very... pouchy.

And I'm definitely not motivated enough to sew my own.

Hey, where does one get 2(X) briefs in town?? My wife bought one pair on a trial basis, I like them, and now she can't remember where she got them. I'd rather not pay shipping...

Ah, questions I can answer. I always by mine at stores like Nordstrom Rack or Off 5th Ave. They usually have them marked down by about 50% or so. Totally worth it to me since I'll probably be out there shopping for other marked down good stuff. The OFF 5th is in the Colorado Mills mall. The Nordstrom Rack I visit is out near the Park Meadows mall, but over by the Costco and the Best Buy. I know there is another Nordstrom Rack up at Flat Irons mall. And the Needless Markup Last Call out at Colorado Mills also has 2(x)ist underwear, though generally their discounts aren't as good as I remember.

Ross doesn't consistently have them, but occasionally they do so if you're a Ross shopper it is worth going over the check their men's underwear section.

Thanks man!
