There’s enough room for a Mancooler Fan!!!!!

 

The picture doesn’t really show a good representation of how baggy they are. The only thing we can see is how big the waist is. My pants waists are always too big, but that doesn’t make them too baggy.

You really need chuck them on with some boots and a jacket to check how it is. If you’re struggling not to walk on them, too big.

My post was tongue in cheek, mainly because I hate tight pants and also because I thought the pic was pretty funny. I’m with Andy; only when the pants are catching under the edges, when riding, are they too big smile

Don’t most pants have those cord things in the pockets for walking? Or aren’t people tucking in the boot storm cuff?

IT just seems so weird when you can see the highbacks. Don’t like the look at all. Having said that, people like what they like and if they like it then good luck to them!

Tight gear is just plain uncomfortable, no matter how good/bad it looks!!!!! Havin said that, the baggy pants worn around ya knees is just as bad as the stove pipes!!!!!

Guys, just wearing baggy pants doesn’t mean you are trying to be gangsta.
I’ve worn baggy pants all my life. They are better to skate in too.

Everyone recommends you snowboard in loose fitting pants because they allow a lot of movement. It’s Practical.

Also there is a difference between hip hop culture and trying to be gangsta. But I’m not going to go there.
