Guys, Stay Away from Sagging Pants, Please!

When it comes to men’s fashion faux pas, one of the biggest ones is the ever problematic sagging pants. Guys, let’s face it. This is probably one of the worst “trends” out there, for a wide number of reasons.

First of all, it started in prisons. And no, it wasn’t because it made you look cool and like you were a grade-a gangster. Nope—it started off showing certain men who was “available.” In short, the origin of sagging pants was a signal to other prison inmates with amorous intentions. Not quite as glamorous as one might think. But, these same people still wore their pants this way after they got out…and, probably embarrassed, they just said that it was a sign they’d been to jail.



The point? This is a problematic way to wear pants. First of all, if your house was on fire, you had one exit and your pants were falling down, what would happen to you? That’s right—you’d fall right on down. The problem with this is that most people don’t realize how dangerous it is. It certainly is in the above scenario.  

Secondly, it’s annoying. Guys, when you’re walking slow because you have all the time in the world, alright. That’s completely normal. When you’re walking slow because your pants won’t allow you to go any faster…this can be a slightly more annoying scenario. Men’s fashion has a few faux pas—but this has to be the most annoying one. Let’s face it—if you want to look nice and mature, just pull your pants up. This men’s fashion faux pas won’t make you look any more mature.
