Can someone tell me what's wrong with wearing khakis?
- Thread starter RUSK97
- Start date
You guys didn't get the memo - men are supposed to dress like the world's greatest soccer players, Cristiano Ronaldo and Gareth Bale
My Buddy Jake...from State Farm....swears by them.
You want to know what's wrong? You really want to know what's wrong? I'll tell you what's wrong. The LAST time I wore khakis,they were called suntans,I was in the Army. That's what's wrong!:sunglasses:
Did you forget where you are? Anything and everything is a reason to find fault.
Come on man!
Nothing wrong with them at all. They do make you look either nerdy or preppy, however.
Now Jean shorts... those are some weird Florida thing. Don't wear those.

Oops. I thought he was talking about the Civil War. :)I didn't realize they wore those in WWI.
And the thread with coach photo had some Jake from State Farm jokes. It was all in good fun. Posters who were were cheering the picture as showing the coaches having fun admonished those making fun of the khakis. Just a typical thread on Scarlet Nation. If we can't laugh at ourselves, everyone else will laugh at us and our D+ grade we just received from USATODAY.
And the number one reason that Khakis are wrong........Harbaugh swears by them!!!!!
Don't know about others but mine is a joke...Remember it was a big deal and his wife was interviewed at one point about it when he was in SF
Dantonio, Swinney, Saban, Stoops--all wear tan khakis on sidelines. Urban Meyer too.
I like cargo shorts, they're very functional for me. Pockets for sunglasses, wallet, phone, keys etc..Comfort and functionality are important to me.
I used to feel the same way but then...
...realized this is true. They do come in handy.
Not a big fan of the hood look.I think some were expecting something more like this:
Please list the coaches who aren't wearing khakis on game day? These manufactures need some new offerings.
sometimes if you don't shake off enough afterwards you can get a damp spot visible on khakis that isn't seen on dark pants or jeans
I do too, didn't know that cargo shorts were also looked down upon...what are the anti cargo shorts people wearing...jorts?
Harbaugh broke new ground when he combined the "It's so hot I take off my shirt but still wear long pants" ethos so often portrayed by the shirtless jean wearing perps on COPS with the Dad/Coach Khaki look. The man is a genius.
Khakis are fine for work. Chinos are more in fashion though now if you're younger.
Plenty of people still wear cargo shorts, but you have to mix it up, if it's a fancier spot, non-cargo shorts are better bet.
Also jean shorts are back, but they should be fashionable and not overly baggy. They should be tighter at the knee.

this should have been on Harbaugh's Christmas list - -
I agree with your post, but would just like to point out that both RUScrew85 and NOTINRHOUSE liked it. That is all.
WARNING - not safe for...anywhere
You ought to be banned for that picture. That's just nasty.
Cargo shorts/pants are completely unacceptable for anybody.
Jean shorts are not back. Not even in at Citi Field.
Khakis are ok for work if you have no style and don't care much about how you dress, but you won't embarrass yourself unless they have pleats.
Chinos are your best bet for casual pants as they are a little dressier than khakis. They don't have visible stitching, are lighter, and aren't as baggy as khakis. They still suck though.
Dress slacks are the way to go.
