AIBU for wanting the Ski Pant 80's trend to come back.

[JoanWilderbeast]

They're so much more flattering than leggings :)

completely man made fibre ones

Ah that made me think "thrush" as soon as I read it , but I did wear jeans so tight they made me numb over my hipbones so I'm not a voice of reason

Useless when you are tall with really long legs like me. Constantly get pulled down by the stirrup.

and exposes your bashful clam.

They were awful because they went out from the knees down as opposed to fitting like leggings.

Got excited with your heading....suddenly imagined myself in double thickness lycra, with braces and a red stripe down the side....skiing down the Zugspitze 😂

I loved ski pants!

As a child I remember loving a pair jeans that were sort of baggy with extra zips as a design feature and elasticated ankles. I’d wear them with a red batwing jumper and just know that I looked fabulous!

No, just no.

@0isaLimitNotaTarget I can relate! I remember my friends and me having to lie down on the bed to get our jeans zipped up, then walking around stiff-legged all day.

Ronhillnrunners. I own several! Have been known to cut the stirrup off if bought those by mistake.

Mine looked just about okay on my 22 inch waist and non-existent hips. I think if they came back now, the stirrups would snap from the strain of being at the opposite end of my current arse/stomach configuration.

Do you remember bodies? Like baby vests with poppers in the crotch? And you wore them under floaty dresses or teensy mini-dresses. Loved them!

Ohh my teen dd has some of them. Wasnt impressed to find out her old fart of a mother used to wear them too. I havent thought about ski pants in years

I wore my ski pants with a long shirt and big strechy elastic belt with a butterfly clip! Or a massive reversible padded jumper waa hoo colours on both sides but like wearing a quilt outside!

I used to buy Heavenly Body. They were so comfortable and flattering.

@JoanWilderbeast

Yes, exactly that *@RubysArms*. The 80's was a reboot of the original 60's trend, forgot to add.

Yes I remember my mum wearing them in the 60s!

How much do you reckon they would cost now? £2.99 down Sunday market use to pay for mine.

Definitely vvvu. They were the ugliest things, even when they were in fashion.

Love a pair of leggings, but I have never ventured near ski pants. That whole ridiculous looking space at the back of the knee, but tight around the calf - just wierd.

Yes they were a bugger to do up if you’d had too much to drink.

I remember the Ron Hill leggings; I lived in them and a baggy jumper.

No I don’t I think they were hideous! but I do wish low rise ‘combat’ trousers would make a return, they were so versatility particularly in summer you could wear them with trainers or flip flops and a nice tight vest top so cool and comfortable. I really struggle with summer jeans/trousers these days skinny jeans or trousers in summer are so damned hot, bring back the combat!

Nothing could be worse than the leggings and dress combo apart from ski pants.

Combats were fashionable last year. Though probably not low rise

I want a huge batwing sloppy jumper over ski pants and slouchy boots.

I'm not sure but anything but leggings (apart from grey jogging bottoms, especially worn by men who think you should notice the size of their manhood).

Did anyone have a frankie says relax tshirt and a Wham choose life one.
