Friday Style Debate: The Jogger Pant Phenomenon…
I try to keep my views out of the debate as much as possible but this week I’m giving myself a mulligan as I think this could be a contentious one. I’ll open by saying I have not been a fan of this look from the outset – from both a personal perspective as well as from a general stylistic point of view.
That said my view point was opened somewhat this week as I saw a friend and two clients wearing the style – all three executed the look very well and it got me thinking as to what they were doing that made it work. In each case they were fashionable but clearly casual and more specifically they wore them trainers. One with Run-DMC inspired Adidas high tops and two with Nike Frees. Which brings us to the images above and the fellow on the right – fashionable though clearly casual and looking great. As for the image on the left – it simply looks like he forgot his pants and had no choice but to throw on his joggers. In other words confused.
So – for success do the joggers have to be clearly casual in nature? Or is the dress jogger allowed to replace a proper pant? You know where I stand – I look forward to hearing your opinions.
Let the debate begin…
