Man Capris and Leather Pants--yay, or nay?

I heard an interesting survey on the radio the other day--something like over 90% of women surveyed said they would not date a man who wore leather pants. The manpanion joked he was surprised it was that low, LOL.

Yanno, I wonder if there's a survey somewhere about the trend of man capris...

Do you think the leather pants survey is dead-on, or do you disagree? Do you think man capris look hot on guys, or do you think they're creepy weird?

    I think some men can pull off the capris look. Now, let me qualify that statement - the men I'm talking about are the tanned, thin men found in tropical areas wearing Jesus sandals and holding a Corona. Other than that, capris on men are just creepy. :)

  2. I actually find the man-capris quite sexy. But the leather pants? Only if you're a rockstar. And I mean a REAL rockstar...

  5. I think both are okay when worn by the right guy in the right situation. After spending time in Spain and seeing manpris everywhere, I've come to equate them with Europeans and soccer boys. Not all bad.

  6. I'm a-okay with Manpres - we poke fun of my Fashion Forward friend B-man, but really, they're kind of cutet.

    Leather? I just have a problem with leather in general. Don't much like Jackets or pantaloons. Too much cow, the ex vegetarian in me gets queasy.

  9. I have seen pictures of Naveen Andrews and Spike in leather pants. I can get behind leather pants on the right guy. Or vampire.Whatever.

    Manpris--okay--kind of remind me of dressed up board shorts. Like, what a surfer would wear to a nice dinner out.

    But you just know that some comb-over guy with a fanny pack is going to try and pull that off wearing black socks and sandals.
