Big big fan of 501s/regular/straight fit jeans. My favorite pant cut may be the barista 9000s aka carhartt b01s, a fairly straight cut.
Anyways the gifs and the fits both look great.
Also really love that quasi shape.
lmao, i was wearing mine a ton while working as a barista. what's the reason behind the nickname? it was good because i could put tools in all the pockets, if the pants get dirty you can literally take a softer wirebrush and just brush off the dirt without damaging them, also it made me look like a plumber during work(i was wearing mostly workshirts, too), working on this machine. felt more professional than looking like some barista hipster in a t-shirt. i also got a matching carhartt bib, but wearing that at any work where it gets hot is fucked. like it was ok at the cafe, but in a kitchen with hot ovens and stuff it gets way too hot under that bib. now i use it at home for whenever i feel like i need a solid bib, like for messy cooking or cleaning bikes.
Ha. Damn
The reason behind the nickname…is just me being a judgmental piece of shit. I worked in restaurants forever, and about 10 years ago started wearing more of a butch look. Boots, carhartt, workwear.
Jokes on me, I accidentally manifested a blue-collar life, and have now done plumbing and currently construction.
Workwear has been pretty played out the last 10 years. It’s not like I take the time to change the oil in my own vehicle or whatever, I’m not core. In the last two major cities I lived in workwear was the kit for lots of younger people in tech and service industries.
The b01 carhartt pant is my favorite, for the cut, the pockets as you mentioned, and they are supposedly made in the USA, which is where I live. Buying things closer, is preferred, cuz jobs, environment, but I’m a lazy consumer. The pants actually wear out faster than I would hope, mainly due to washing.
I’m the industries I work in now, everyone just shops at Walmart and wears Georgia Romeos. So my carhartt getups are looking pretty zoolander.
I, probably mistakenly, call them overalls. But I have some carhartt ones and I can totally see how they’d be too much in the kitchen. They really shine when I’ve gained too much weight and am driving long distances.
What I need to have happen is for an attractive cool younger person to make kuhl pants ok.
