    • Thanks! This is helpful. I have the opposite problem because I’m 6’3-6’4”. I can wear the Cushman XL set in sleeve fully uncuffed, but any shorter than those sleeves would not work.
    • "Sweatpants" is a relatively recent Americanism for what I've always called tracksuit bottoms, whether of polyester or similar (Daley Thompson-style) or cotton jersey (sweatpants). Anyway,  sweatpants is what I'm talking about. 
    • What would one consider a trackie in 2025?.. i haven't seen a Daley Thompson or Goldie Lookin Chain-esque trackie for years.. it's mainly sweatpants / drawstring pants.. yuppie types have been dressing them up for the office for some time.. worn with lofas, sports jacket.. knitwear and such, they can cost a small fortune, (£1000+) but if you saw a crackhead wearing them you would assume £20 from Sports Direct.. Tell us more of these fit ideas.. isn't it just denimz.. sweats, tees, jackets and pumps like the rest of us? You don't know that for sure.. she could be normcoreing like a mofo.. "i had one of them 2009 era denimheads at my checkout today".. she'll be saying on the middle-isle WhatsApp group.. When i go to the Tesco near work, i'm so threadbare that security clock me instantly and assume i'm either homeless or a shoplifter.. little do they know, i'm cultivating a sufu accredited WH jacket Viva La Nonsense!
    • It's funny to hear talk of putting on "real pants" to work (and not manual labour), where the real pants are jeans. Until the last thirty or forty years people would have been saying the same thing about putting on a suit. For that matter, there are still plenty of blogs around now where men will tell you that jeans are inappropriate for anything other than leisure, or even that men over thirty (or forty, or whatever arbitrary number they pick) should only wear chinos and "slacks" (does that term sound just as comical to other Brits?). I find them really entertaining actually.  I find it interesting the way that trends have shifted over the last twenty years so that jeans have shifted a place up the formality scale, and leisure wear (in the UK, read "tracksuits") has come in to fill the place they vacated. The people who sneered at young people or perceived commoners for wearing jeans forty years ago are now sneering at young people or perceived commoners for wearing trackies. (None of this is a comment on anyone here,  just some thoughts inspired by the discussion.)
