Have you changed your style in the last 20 years?

[Landsurfer]

Jeans / shorts .. black jeans for work, blue for other times. Shorts all year round. T-shirts, trainers ....
We often joke about the military “off duty” uniform I’ve been wearing since 1975.

No. 2 hair since i went to the Falklands in ’82 ...
Although it was dyed blonde last month, Julie was doing hers and had some left over .... sort of like tiger stripes now...

I have to say I wear jeans when out and about, but the older I get the more poor fitting the seem and the more uncomfortable they get. As a consequence when im vegging at home im either in joggers - which Mrs D hates - or shorts.

Joggers ... Council House Trousers ....

Well, I own 2 houses without a mortgage between them, so I think I've earned the right to dress like I'm about to crap in my pants and want to stop the mess rollong out the bottom of the legs.

As a young buck (stop laughing) I wore Jeans except I think they were called work jeans Had a narrow pocket down the side of the leg to stow your ruler When I was at nursing school one lecturer wouldn’t allow the wearing of jeans .His described them as cheap nasty cotton with an expensive logo.This from a man who wore drip dry see through nylon shirt with a string vest underneath

My work trousers have a long pocket like you describe, along with various smaller ones which I use for gloves, knife, chisel, et c.

Even better the trousers have a second one for a spare ruler, because when you have a ruler people frequently ask to "borrow" it...

Most of my clothing comes from Millets or M&S, with the occasional hoodie and jeans combo

My style is so manly, so tough, so ready for anything, that I have even been known to buy clothes from the garden centre on occasion...

Do all engineers have rough-arses?

I’m asking for a friend who’d like to know.

Not all engineers have rough arses.
Some work is nice, posh design offices with design screens and carpets on the floor.
I'm afraid my working life has been in a rough-arsed metal bashing works.
There were 6500 of us when I stated there.
I'm pretty-much the last man standing.
I've shut a few places in my time - But that was certainly the biggest.

That is such a cool look,if you're slim (1970's skinny look) and can carry it off!

I wish I was in that financial league. Rigger boots and Dickies strides are but a distant dream to a scruff like me
