Let's agree they look bangin on women. Do they work on a dude? I have a pair of white Levis I like and I used to wear my white Carhartt's a lot but no so much anymore. They do look good the more messed up they get.

    There are certain few dudes with certain looks that can pull it off, but most should back away.

    Proceed with caution.

    Only if u have game.


  • One year for Freaknik I went into downtown Atlanta wearing a pair of Britannica brand white jeans with GIANT bell bottoms. "Elephant legs." That and a pink polo. I didn't seem to arouse much suspicion.

    White jeans are a lil bit hipster, and therefore douchey IMO.

    It all depends on your style and hustle...Personally, I wouldn't rock them cuz thats not my steelo, but I have a metrosexual friend that (btw, knows nothing about records or music for that matter), wore some white pants that came up to his cavs with a matching button up that you would pay $60 for at the mall with sandals and gelled hair when we went to Cancun and he got maaad assss. I wouldn't of pulled that shit off personally, but he did...If you can get away with it then I ain't mad. But for the majority record dork crowd =

    i disagree,





    a white jean can be the right jean, or trouser, if it's simple and not all armani exchange cheeseball hairdresser brett michaels steez.
    and some dudes look real good in white jeans, it just depends on how you freak em like any article of clothing. it's not a look for everyone.

    In the days of Miami Vice I owned a white suit. I must have looked like a struck match. But, as has been said, the problem is practicality. No sitting down on leatherette... No sitting down basically. No jostling at the bar with folks bearing armfuls of drinks. No eating.

    I suppose, as they say... "FAME COSTS."

    I guess if you really think you're in a situation that you can pull it off then by all means give it a shot. But I would say that in the sets I roll with it's an immediate

    White pants are not white jeans, and Cancun is not America.

    You Damn White 'bout that!

    exactly.

    if you gotta ask, then no. you need to OWN that shit. think twice and people can tell you're not sure and then you're a goofy dude in goofy white jeans....or a rent boy on his first day. you think the firecrackers in these pictures thought twice about pulling their white slacks on that morning? No.

    If you ask Billy Vera, he'll tell you HALE NO to white pants. Especially if you're going onstage.

    I agree. It can be done, but only by the select few who know how to do it. If you ain't got it, then you look like a dork or a house painter or a dorky house painter.


    White pants are a different story. It still takes game to pull it off, but as I see it there's a different set of rules.



    I await, however, and will defer to the official ruling from the homie Faux Rillz.

    One can cop some cheap canvas painter pants from any paint store.
    Theyre light enuff for the summer weather and if u got style they are just as freakable as regular White Denim. They have a more relaxed blue collar steez, w/ out the "hipster" baggage.

    they look better if they are beat up like frayed or something - not totally white. also chubby dudes should forget it. clean new white jeans are only good for the beach

    I was just thinking about this yesterfuckingday!!! I bought a new shirt and thought "should I be wearing white jeans with this". Then, I thought "I don't know if I can pull off tight white jeans". Because that's all they sell nowadays. But, I can pull off white painter pants. This is genius. Thank you. Off to the paint store.

    No

    Worded. DIrty white chucks/vans are the only white thing that is acceptable dirty. Any other white apparel should be crisp. It's white cause it's clean, that's what white does. It's like "Hey I don't give a F*ck, I know this shit is gonna get wrecked, but I'm gonna look fly as till then."

    But, different strokes for different folks, all kinds of things go on in this world. Fashion is diverse.
