What is your opinion on these cargo trousers? (picture attached)
They are by Polo Ralph Lauren. I just want to know if these are in trend or do they make you look stupid?

Do you like the pants?
I have and love these particular pants
@Acne Cashmere Scarf Go army? Never in my life heard of Go Army....
But I guess you are right regarding the price. They cost me £60. Should I return them?
@Walmart the Conqueror I like them and I like the brand, but I still cant justify spending £60...only if they were £30/40 I would have kept...
@mattw2 Also the pants you showed me, they dont have ribbons or drawstrings on the waist or hems....Are these stupid to have? Basically I dont wanna look like an idiot if its not stylish.
that's just the website name, they're military surplus
I do like cargo pants but I wouldn't buy them from an army website as if I am going to war lol.
But I understand your point that I can find similar for much cheaper and about the same quality?
I don't think these particular cargo pants look that good. The drawstrings etc are fine, but the overall cut is a bit meh.
They are relaxed fit....something which I now opt for rather than skin tight.
they give the effect of beach pants imo except not as wide as i'd imagine
So do I, but I still don't think these are well cut. They're occupying some weird uncanny valley between chinos, joggers and cargos and I don't like it.
i personally do not like the drawstring but that's a matter of personal preference
whether it's "stupid" looking or not is up to you and how you feel about them
people may judge you for drawstrings but they may judge you for anything else, you've got to decide how to respond to that, especially for something that you like
Hmm, I think you are right. I shouldn't go for a mash-up of different types in one product. It's better to have one single style.
@zeometer They are called beachcomber, so I guess they are a clothing item more suited to summer given by the name? Not what I would be looking for....
Also I do think the drawstrings on hems and waist might give a feminine look, I rather want something more masculine.
This is a return for me, thanks for helping out guys and not wasting my money !!
masculinity takes many different forms, none of which are more valid than the other
it seems you arrived at a decision which is nice, but i wouldn't discount your personal tastes just because they don't fit a certain view of what men "should" wear
Yea, that seems agreeable.
As long as men don't wear something outrageous like a skirt or bra!
Cant also get too complacent in a world where women want to destroy mens masculine style.
hey man, what do you mean by this
Hey mate, shut the fuck up you absolute wanker :blushcatto:
I feel excluded, im nonbinary and also want to destroy mens masculine style!
Hell yeah mate
infinite bud you better choose your words carefully
