Are skinny jeans and chinos for men back in fashion?

Skinny jeans (or chinos etc) for men. Are they back in fashion? Saw several men yesterday wearing them. Not looking good either, and I usually pay less than zero attention to what men are wearing so it was notable.

I think men are far less subject to whims of fashion. Chinos have never gone away. The jeans were just what were at the top of the pile. Do you mean people who looked like they were otherwise trying to be fashionable?

@Bluegreenbird yeah, a couple of them in particular looked as if they'd put some thought into what they were wearing, rather than just thoughtless clothes. I think they were more notable because women aren't wearing them right now.

Funnily enough I was noticing yesterday that none of the men I saw were wearing the awful wide leg trousers that some of the women i saw were wearing.
.
And what's more a lot of the guys looked really good in their clothes.
As did the quite large number of women also not wearing the awful wide leg trousers .

Interested in this thread?

Ah @Farewelltothatid I like the wide-legs that women are wearing. Not wearing them myself, because I'm very averse to change. But I wish I was more adaptable.

Chinos have never been out of fashion for most men (insofar as they care about fashion).

Skinny jeans I think are still history.
