Current fashion trends you hate

[HejiraNYC]

I'm not understanding all the hate for skinny jeans on guys. As with anything very fitted, it all depends on the relative physical fitness of the wearer. If you have skinny legs, but a big gut and wide hips, skinny jeans are not for you. But if you have a good booty and big calves, skinny jeans can be your friend. Being on the shorter side with a small waist and big thighs, I kinda need skinny jeans or jeans with some kind of stretch to them. The only alternative would be to buy "relaxed fit" jeans that fit over my thighs, which means they are big and baggy everywhere except for the thighs, which is not a flattering look- they are almost like bell bottoms.

I must not get out a lot because I don't see a lot of the skull trend on the street. What really irks me are those "retro" T-shirts emblazoned with fictitious sports team logos, e.g., "The Manchester Tornados." How douchey is that? I never see people on the street wearing them, yet that's all you see in the stores.

The overall thing that irks me is that it is virtually impossible to find anything out there that is properly tailored. I can't buy shirting and suits off the rack; anything that doesn't stretch has to be custom made. Everything else seems to be cut for guys who have narrow shoulders and big fat bellies, i.e., the typical American man. Invariably this means I have to buy stretchy things that are a little tight around the shoulders and chest; otherwise, all of that extra fabric will hang around my midsection like a muumuu. I hate that!
