  • cool...

  • Good to see people still responding to this ... keep wearing the leather and we'll make it 'fashionable' to others (we already know it's fashionable!) Still had no negative comments from people about my leather pants (which I still wear every week) since I last posted on here 12 months ago. So ... to anyone worried about what other might be thinking, remember that the chances are they're either not thinking anything at all or just wish they had the guts to wear them! It's your life ... live!

  • ROFL! 4:43 - 5:03

  • Great video!

    Any Idea where I can find slim men leather pants ???

  • @oOoDaEnGoOo no specific suggestions. but may I suggest finding leather pants that you like based on the quality of the hide, then if they need some work, take them to a shop that does custom altering, like any drycleaner, which usually have the expertise to do whatever you want, like making them form fitting

  • I agree with what you have to say about leather pants 100%!!! I have searched high and low for a pair just like the kind you are wearing in your video. 501 style with no seam at the knee (kinda snug)... where do I purchase them???

  • Were I live, original 501's are about as expensive as leather pants. Not trouble there.

  • I was in a drama class in my full black leathers and was role-playing an evil black leather-cladded cocky, arrogant, greedy, aggressive kidnapper. I GOMed my victim and boy, did I instantly feel the massive black leather boner rising! What a feeling!!!

  • @blacklthrpants2002

    That sounds great. Would love to see you as a bad guy in full black leather!

  • @GreenLeatherCop Improvised or from a written script, how do you want it bud?

    

  • You cannot say there's no difference between denim and leather 501 pants! of course there is. Leather is more sexy. You just love the feeling of it, its brightness, even its smell. Many people do associate it to gays or bikers. They are fools. Leather is warmer, more comfortable than any other kind of material... and u can have a nice look in it, be a man or a woman. I'm straight, have no bike... and wear leather pants, even in office. The most I got was "wooow" and "all you need now is a bike".

  • @natan1234 The truth is, ALL men would LOVE to wear leather pants, and MOST men are just too shy to do so. Not talking about price -- leather pants are 5-10 times more expensive than denim. And they are worth the difference. Denim 501 is just "hasbeen", once you have tasted leather, and compared the look and feeling.

  • If you're tryin to up your sex appeal just do some exercise and lose some weight.

  • I basically wear leather pants all the time (except when it is really warm) and I have heard every stupid comment out there already. Leather pants may not be everyones taste, but they are far more comfortable then denim jeans. Problem is, however, that people associate leather pants on a man with gay/biker/alto/rockstar because those groups wear them on a slightly higher profile. Search youtube on 'leather pants men' and allmost all you get is gay guys showing off their buts...

  • @Gooikes Hey, I encourage ALL straight guys to wear them. Male actors do in public and on screen and they have no problem showing off their leather boners in public. Why should the rest of the straight guys if these male TV stars don't mind? Go out and get a pair and put them on!

  • yea i''m getting them done by a morrocan tailor in the village in new york city...

  • its just wanna another material to make clothing out of. and people often say "oh you're just trying to be a rock star". jim morrison got the idea from marlon brando. native american have made pants out of leather for alot longer than denim jeans have been around. so yea ive decided on getting a pair of leather pants for myself.. they're gonna be made of kid glove leather.. and they're also gonna fit like my 511 levi's

  • @OlBluesMan90 Wow, those pants are gonna feel GREAT! You will not want to take then off, even to go to sleep. Do you know where you're gonna have them made yet?

  • and for those of you who continue to have problems it or don't think people should wear it.. go fuck yourselves.. maybe you'll get hit by a car and be reincarnated and learn something from this life your currently living lol.. you kept your cool until then.. gotta love it..

  • @OlBluesMan90 nicely stated! love it! thanks.

  • I love leather pants, but I'm gay, so it is kind of a gay thing, which is fine by me.

  • At grade 9 when I started wearing a leather jacket for school, a lot of people had a problem with it. Mainly because it is a small town and everyone dresses the same, like hoods. After awhile people started to imitated my style of clothing by getting fake leather jackets. When I told them that a average leather jacket costs at least $200.00 they wanted to buy my jacked off for $40 bucks.

  • Exactly, rise above the stigma. Btw, you are very verbally resourceful, adorably hot, cool from head to toe, and fantasy-inducing (you perfect bootman).

  • I love the look of Leather pants, I want a pair of my own. But I despise the stigma attached to them. It's bullshit through and through. rock the cow skin sir.

  • Great video and LOVE your harness boots. What size do you wear?

  • I have been searching for a pair of real black leather levi jeans. Do you know where I can get a pair dude? Any info you provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

  • @blacklthrpants2002

    LeatherUp and Jamin' Leather have Levi's - style leather pants for sale.

  • i think the issue, is people think its kinky and feminine to wear leather other than a leather jacket. Im wearing black levis jeans right now and love them, but kudos to you for doing what you like!

  • @pineappleisawesome1 thanks for your suggestion/comment. I think you're somewhat right as there are clearly more women that wear leather pants but traditionally leather is a masculine attire which contradicts that belief.

  • I wish more straight guys would make videos about wearing leather as youtube is full of too many gay leather videos and I don't wanna watch them at all wouldn't mind seeing some sexy women wearing leather pants though lol I'm gonna make a video about wearing leather Sportriderseattle you have inspired me to have confidence to wear leather thanks mate

  • @Deano86t Good for you. Take a stand and wear it in public mate.

  • am about to pick some , honestly i dont really care at all for what people may think or say [i know its hard to believe] but i i think it looks awesome then thats what it is.

    gotta have the confidence to have the final say.

  • i'd actually like to know about the harness boots you're wearing. What's the make on them, and how high?

  • I am a guy who is 26 years old and i love leather. I wear a leather jacket with gloves in autumn/winter but wear with caution because a lot of people i know hate leather and thinks it looks ridiculous. No way would i wear trousers in public. I feel very comfortable in them and they feel awesome. But i wish i had the balls to go out and show people. I love dressing in head to toe in leather in the comfort at home. I wish more and more guys will wear leather trousers and show them off outside.

  • @alchomy666 I'm glad to hear you're out and about in your jacket/gloves. I suspect the people you know that hate leather, likely hate it because they are Pro-life for cows, lamb or whatever animal your jacket come from. This truly has to be the most immature reason for hating leather. Animals are not being killed for your clothing, they are first being raised for food. And in the whole process of killing the animal it only makes sense to use as much of the "product" and maximize its use.

  • @sportriderseattle Thanks for the feedback. Also I wish one day Leather trousers will be in fashion. :-)

  • @alchomy666 They are in fashion, but some guys are just too timid of wearing them in public. They wear them at home during sex. It stimulates the erection very easily, no ounce of thought put into it.

  • @blacklthrpants2002 It does not !! It's just cool to look at, that's all.

  • @sportriderseattle agrees too, those r just excuses. Human hav the tendency to use discriminations as a way to empower n bash others, they do so to group themselves as self-proclaimed higher status of normality. It's just pure silly. I got a pair recently and my friends love the way i pull of the look, as being an asian i'm 6ft tall and i hav the looks too. I'm gay but my str8 friends they doesnt know n they too wish to be stylo as me but they just never hav the balls to do it.

  • @sportriderseattle They often challenge the fact that am i over-dressed in a warm climate in asia, actually i was quite concern before buying a pair of real leather pants as i had a pair of PU leather pants n that one is truly unbreathable and hot. But when i got my pair recently, it's actually not hot at all (the Ross episode in FRIENDS is over dramatized), it stays exactly as how my normal denim jeans does. Cant wait to flaunt it during this x'mas, it's definitely a privilege to wear them!

  • @alchomy666 hey man I wear womens leather pants and leather jacket and some times gloves,I don't give a shit what people think,most girls I know love what I wear.I wear leather all the time,I love wearing it in the city during the day,yes I get some funny looks,but i get a lot of good looks too,you should wear what you want and don't worry about what other people think.I was like you once ,but now that I wear leather all the time I feel good all the time,and girls love the feel of it.

  • @MySickofitall Many thanks for the reply. I have been chatting to leatherblaze, and he has given me alot of support and incouragement about leather trousers. My girlfriend cant stand them, if she loved leather, it would be so much easier. She wears leather gloves, and a jacket once in a blue moon, but i really hope one day she will wear leather more and more. I slipped into the trousers for a joke as i was getting ready to go out one morning, and she wasnt impressed. They are only trousers!!!!!!

  • @alchomy666 I dig your last statement there --- more guys in black leather...

  • Oh and also I might add the pants your wearing and some of the jackets you were I really like let me know if you ever get a face book are myspace.

  • Your right they are just pants and I think that people need to stop the stereotyping on everything it seems these days that just because you have a hobby are you like something like leather pants are jackets that is is a gay fetish will I am straight and I enjoy leather just as much as anyone else so I agree with you 100% and by the way the pants the David was wearing was leather there were dress leather.

  • I'm a straight guy and thinking of buying my first pair of leather pants. I have some questions. One- are they hot temperature-wise to wear? Two- do they do the cliched fart-noise-squeak whenever your sitting and fidget? three- im thinking of buying from a site called rockinleather. it has good and bad reviews. your thoughts? thanks SO MUCH for you help!

  • Well said... what IS the deal? You're a gentleman. I wear my leather jeans out and about all the time, and nobody really seems to take any notice. Those who do notice, it's really funny to see their eyes drop, then there is that nano second where a hundred pre-judgements and common-sense counter-arguments are flying through their brains. Because they wish that they had the guts and the individuality to wear them too, but they're scared conformists.

    Oh, and that's such a sexy accent ;)

  • @TheAdventurer1969 very well put! the majority of those weird looks are by those individuals that would love to be as daring as those of us that wear the leather.

  • The dogs will bark but the caravan moves on.

    You can't please everyone so please yourself.

    The people who count in my life are the ones who can think for themselves. People who are not manipulated by religion and lying politicians.

  • Where do you even buy leather pants?

    I wanna buy some X_X

  • Good on you mate for making this video i'm sick of people thinking a guy is gay just coz he wears leather pants girls wore those leather leggings a few years ago and didn't get called lesbians the narrow minded people that hate on leather pants are just jealous I bought myself some leather pants the other day i'm a straight guy and I think they look awesome i'm gonna wear them out in public on tuesday I don't care what other people in public think haha

  • Sportrider Sir you look amazing buddy love your leathers and videos

  • Love your pants, specially the ones you're wareing, look great on you!

  • SHIIT I WANT YOU IN MY BED WITH YOUR GIMPSUIT NOW

  • @Wellfan2K7 Mmmmmmm. that's a tempting offer! :-) You sound like my type of person!

  • I like this guy.

    I like wearing leather pants. They look good, they smell good, they feel good, and they sound cool. And they last a long time. I wear them when I'm riding a motorcycle, when I'm doing yard work (they're thorn proof!), when I go to a party, we go to a concert, when I go to a bar, etc. And yes, I am gay. And proud of it.

  • tHE EXPLANATION COULD BE EVEN LONGER THAN THIS BUT AT THE END, IF A GUY'S WEARING LEATHER PANTS IS OBVIOUSLY AN STREAPPED MINDED PERSON, SOMEBODY WHO ASSUMES HIS BODY AND SEXUALITY WITHOUT ANY COMPLEX. i WEAR MY LEATHER PANTS PROUDLY AND IM STILL SURPRISED WHEN SOMEONE ASK ME IF I FEEL NOT EMBARRASED IN PUBLIC...OF COURSE NOT! I DO ENJOY THEM (30 PAIRS)

  • Jim Morrison wore leather trauzers

  • Just saw the video and i agree, just think its raining Denim gets soaked Leather it just rolls right off.. plus they look so much smarter the denim..

    I do own a pair myself they feel and look fantastic..

  • There are no better pants or jeans for any MAN to wear than Leather, any place and any time. Hey Guys start wearing your leathers! No longer fashion, required! Start wearing them!

  • Great Vid, more people, and men, need to loose their hang-ups and start wearing leather. There is nothing more comfortable to wear. They look great and are so comfortable. Start wearing your leathers!

  • Right on brother ! People in America are very homophobic and need an enema stat! I am a straight tattotted leather wearing hair stylist and get crap on a daily basis. That does not stop me from making great money, hanging with the hottest women in my town and having a kick A time. America grow up!

  • i have a very nice pair of 5 pocket zip front that i have only had the balls to wear maybe once or twice and that was at night and to a club. now i am going to wear them to a goth club. do you wear yours during the day doing your daily activities or are they only for clubs and night. peeps that criticize can't pull them off. ( JMHO) just my humble opinion

  • What are you worried about? Just wear what you want. I'm a straight guy and regularly wear my leather jeans (I have both black and brown jeans) and never get any negative comments. Straight or gay ... wear what you want and be afraid no more!

  • @MultiPauletta I have leather pants and jeans, that is all I have for pants right now. I wear them out in public too. I do not give a damn what people thing if they think anything about me. I do not give a f**k what they think. I love wearing leather. If it makes you happy, then do it. Hell! I even sleep in my leather.

  • vous etes un gentil gay

  • Nothing wrong with wearing them.I have the same problem, have a pair but have only ever worn them once.I think if it's not fashionable then you dare not wear them.However if fashion dictates, as I hope it will some day.They'll be hip.

  • are you gay? je je je je! you are gay? you feel when you wear leather pants? feeling morbid? I have not wanted to buy some but do not dare because I am afraid to be labeled gay! you advise?

  • Wow it is amazing how many people feel this way. I am straight , got a pair of Nice soft leather jeans off eBay that fit great, but at this point would not dare wear them out of the house. I love the feel of wearing them. No way I have the guts to wear them out.

  • I'm right there with you on that comment.Shame isn't it.I love the feel of them too.

  • I am a male and straight. I love my leather pants. I dont care what other people say or think. At least I have a mind of my own and can think for myself. Unlike others who have issues with guys with leather pants just because someone told them that it's for gays or something.

  • Right on dude, I wear Leather pants all the time also, wear em to work once or twice a week.

    they are comfortable and last forever.

    Cheers Mate

  • Great rationale! I'm going to get a transcription and put it right up there with the Gettysburg address. Thanks for your courage to come out for leather pants. One thing you didn't mention, though. Guys straight or gay, young or old - look terrific in leather pants!

  • Leather pants are an amazing image. I'm a male, STRAIGHT, with no issues against homosexuals. I wish the world would get their heads out of a certain place and realize that leather pants aren't just for females. Bikers wear them, rockstars in the 70s-late 80s wore them, nothing wrong. If people waste their time talking about them on males then that makes them pathetic. Fashion is fashion, everyone has different taste in it. Pants are tight!

  • Thank you for bringing up this issue. I bought my first pair of leather pants in 1998 and I do like the look of them. It certainly is attention-getting just because of the way the material looks-- that part I am fine with. It's the stereotyping of men who wear leather pants that is annoying as you pointed out. This wasn't so bad when I started wearing them in 1998 but today I get the sense that there is more stigma attached to men wearing them. This doesn't stop me but it is annoying.

  • I never worry about what people think or say. I am not any particular stereo type. I love wearing leather jeans that I purchased from Ultimate Leather Co., UK. They were custom made and fit perfect. I love the feel of leather next to my skin and the look of leather. Because I do not wear underwear and leather can not be washed like other materials, I have worn them only for short periods around the house and locally.

  • Well, the difference between leather pants and non-leather pants is that leather pants are...leather. They're shinier and because they catch and reflect the light more, they garner more notice. That's all fine, and you look great in your leather pants. But they're just a little special, that's all.

  • I'm also wearing leather pant :-)

    and i'm a straight guy...

    I love wearing leather pant,yeah!!

  • how much did your jeans cost? write back :)

  • Good video, thanks for posting :)

  • Fucking A

  • Do your thing and do not pay any mind to what people, expecially other men say or think! I wear my leather pants all the time.

    Bootjock59

  • What you say is wise. I don't understand why blokes wearing good fitting black denim levi's DO get by when guys wearing leather are aften treated otherwise: stigmatised (for example as gay if they aren't).

    Girls in leather pants are not called lesbians. Am I missing something?

    Well this is only an issue in the UK / US as in other countries it's of no importance. You will get a compliment (or not) for the 1st time you wear em and then no one takes notice, maybe from time to time if you look gud

  • want to see more videos of you in levis and the zipped up leather jackets u have

  • Great!

  • I agree 100% with you bro. I never understood the big deal drama towards guys who wear leather pants/jeans. I wear leather jeans when I go out at night, clubs, concerts, etc. I don't get much negative reaction, but I think it's because I'm hairy, have long hair & a beard, people think I'm a biker or a rocker.

    But hey, I wear spandex too. It seems guys who are more clean cut get more negativity. Fuck the nay sayers. Guys look great in leather. You look great in leather bro. Keep it up.

  • Who cares what they think? They look hot and feel sexey to wear!

  • I've never understood this either. Now if you really want to catch some shit, just wear a kilt. I wear one when I'm hiking and some folks are cool with it and others insist on calling it a "dress". I agree with you: "Fuck 'em!"

  • i wonder if guys wear anything underneath. My mate lived in scotland for a few years and he was made to wear a kilt because he sold scottish memorabilia in a shop. His boss told him specifically not to waer ANY underwear underneath!!! Even though he wasnt scotish but polish. Hahaha hilarious it was when he was telling me that!

  • dam i wish i was brave enough to go out n buy then go out leather pants

  • Well stated from start to finish, buddy!! I think leather pants are very cool on any guy and to those that wear them, more power to you! You've got a great sense of style. Cool boots, cool pants and you're just a cool, straight-forward guy whose not afraid to state his point. I get flack for wearing cowboy boots because I'm apparently "not the type" since I'm not a cowboy, a country musician or attending a country line dance festival. Give me a break! Great job and great pants!!

  • Interesting and curious. I got my first pair of black leather pants in my early 20's. Fuckn' loved 'em. Did not ride a bike at the time and was not openly gay. Still, the reactions of others...'what?...LEATHER PANTS?!?'...and such made me feel like a bit of a freak when I wore them. I felt that I needed to have a good reason to wear them...more than just to look like a hot, sexy stud. Folks just seem to feel uncomfortable to see guys wear leather pants. I wish more guys would :]

  • I agree M8-----> TOTALY !!!!

    I am from Belgium and it is the same overhere....it is just stupid how people react , let us wear Leather and enjoy the feeling of Leather !!!

    Thank you for this vid!!!!

    wes

  • I think most guys that have a problem with leather pants secretly yearn to have the balls to wear them.....In the end, all that matters is how the actual wearer feels when he wears leather pants....

  • this guys is sexy he can wear his leather pants over to my hosue anytime.

  • Wow I feel the same. Sometimes people just need to let things go. Its not their body and its CLOTHES. Just live your life and let people live theirs, right? I loved where you said, "fuck yourself" it was really sexy and you looked hot when you were seemingly mad.

  • IF a guy shaves his head he's percieved to be either a skinhead, a Nazi, gay, or a cop.

    Americans are STUIPD

  • ah.....what the hell does this have to do with this video and leather? hum

    And shaved heads and Americans? I suppose you have not been to every single city within the USA. Seattle for one has a hell of a lot of people that shave their heads and I don't think that anyone really thinks about your stereotypes.

  • right, shaving your head doesn't make people think you're a skinhaed anymore (for a long time now) it's very casual, but wearing leather pants when you're a man still bring the same silly question (is he gay, does he think is à model...), without that, i'm pretty sure many guy would wear leather pant.

    nice and smart vid

  • People who buy and wear leather pants usually think they're something pretty f*ckin special.

  • we certainly are special!  Do you wanna join us?

  • I agree with you. I live in small town Iowa. I don't do it so much here, but when I go out in other places I break them out. The others can go 'f' themselves if they don't like them.

  • I feel like hes gonna put me over his lap for a spanking lol excellent vid

  • Why do heterosexual people have issues about men wearing leather pants? Easy? Almost all heterosexual people are bigots.

  • ah, but I don't think its just heteros. Let's not single them out for this one. It's not like we see alot of gay men out and about in their leathers.

  • Thanks for saying that.

    I'm a married hetero guy in Canada and I wear my black leather pants often; today at my office in fact. Granted, living near Quebec, which is French, helps.

    Do I care if anyone thinks it's wrong? No. In fact, one female manager here wears black leather pants/skirts often, but has never, until today, seen my leather pants. She saw me just as she was entering the elevator and her smile was completely positive, almost like a "hey you too!" kind of thing.

  • right on dude!!

    I'm a straight leather lover but your 100% right

  • dear lord!!

    leather pants are just pants (that happen to be much more comfortable than regular jeans)

    back in the late 70s & 80s it was so common for a guy to wear leather pants. today it's almost a crime to be seen wearing. for the dudes who do want to wear them GO AHEAD!!!

    castillianwagon500 (is that a cadillac?) is right what he says about others who wish for it, but are prisoners in their own mind and body. i bet they secretly stash leather somewhere in their homes!

  • you looks really good in your leatherpants!

  • i do too

  • What a great video. I completely agree with everything you say.

    Well Said!

  • I don't see why there is a hassle about leather jeans. Your right, jeans are jeans denim or leather. Those who have a problem with this It's THEIR PROBLEM. Usually people who have problems with this type of thing secretly want to do what they resent. They resent others exercising their personal freedom because they are afraid to exercise theirs ! Leather jeans are especially nice in very cold weather with strong wind.

  • Agreed. I have the same suspicion: i.e. that those who voice a "problem" with leaher pants most likely wish they had the nads to wear them.

    What I hate so much about this issue is the "emperors clothes" aspect, meaning that even though leather is something that most people like [jackets, shoes, couches, wallets, etc], because there is a cultural "thing" about leather pants, most people can't, or don't want to, bring themselves to see that they are just pants made of leather - nothing more.

  • you are a very hot man.. thanks for the video.

  • Hey I think there should be more guys out there like you. I too love to wear leather pants, for the comfort and the look. But like you say, it attracts so many comments(mostly negative) and looks. Here's to more guys like you.

  • Check out the vid below. The first guy to wear leather pants. Nothing gay about it...LOL

  • I'm going to just say it: Denims flatly suck [they're potato bags!] and Dockers suck 5 times harder [unless you're a golfer, and why in God's name would someone choose to dress like a golfer?!?].

    There will come a time when, like with the once maligned leather jacket, when people finally get past the stereotypes that are older than most of the people themselves.

  • what kind of leather pants are those?

  • they are BLACK leather pants. hehe. but seriously, the ones that I am wearing are "The Original Leather Line of New York", they are probably atleast 20 years old. The other leather pants I show are from Germany and don't have a maker's label.

  • Those leather pants are 20 years old! I would have thought they were brand new. They look that way. That's one more advantage of leather pants over levis. They last forever, levi jeans don't.

  • I would rather wear leather pants instead of the levis.

  • Agreed. Leather pants are much more comfortable. Besides, my wife gets much more playful when I wear them.

  • I agree with your whole story

  • well said,it seems that everything is gay now,you want to wear leather pants ?? oh my god you'r gay...you want to wear a short denim jacket ?? or something a bit bright in color ?? you must also be gay...truth be told,to be a guy is not fun and we don't have much choices, it all depends how you wear it (i think),i'am a straight guy,wear leather jeans occasionaly and i totaly agree with you.

  • I'm also a straight guy who's enjoyed wearing leather jeans for a number of years. I think they look cool and wish they'd become more of a mainstream fashion again like they were in Europe a couple of years back. I get those looks and comments like the rest of you do. Now I know why. Youtube is full of gay leather fetish videos that make it look like wearing leather jeans must be a gay thing. Wish more straight guys would post leather jean videos to combat the stereotype.

  • thanks for your reply Leatherpastor,sadly it's all about fashion,it probably would help if some high profile guys(celebrity,sports)would wear leather jeans in a normal fashion way....i guess it would help a lot,anyway happy to know that i'am not the only one....

  • Yes, you're probably right about high profile guys needing to wear leather jeans to help jumpstart the fashion trend. The problem is they do from time to time, but then people say, as sportriderseattle puts it in his video, that "you have to be a celebrity" to wear them. The average joe on the street who enjoys leather jeans need to wear them too to help break stereotypes.

  • Yesterady, I saw an African-American man in his mid-40s at the grocery store in leather pants and a matching leather sweater. He looked really sharp. It reminded me of how the black community is so much more accepting of leather fashion on men than Euro-Americans are. That's an interesting contrast given all of the average joe European men shown on TV wearing leather pants in other YouTube posts. Wish white guys in the USA could get rid of this fashion stigma.

  • Well said!

    I am totally with you on this.

    It's so wierd how people have become almost hysterical about them.

    Leather pants are very stylish and look great on men; more should wear them. It's just such a shame that most people don't have any style at all!!

    Maybe we should elect a world Leather Pants day??

  • personaly I think leather pants are very sexy

  • I blame Freddy Mercury. Seriously, i mean he was pretty gay and he not only wore leather pants but he wore them pretty poorly. I mean i'm not a expert on mens leather pants, but i don't think having agrandpa waistline has ever worked to anybodies advantages, couple that with the fact leather pants were already questionable, and BAM!!

  • Thats the problem, gays have been claiming our masculinity for sometime. I mean, once you claim making cowboys look gay what the hell do you have left? Conan the barbarian?!?!

    We have to realize that our territory is being pissed in by some broke dick fountain people and do something about it.

    Get some friggin Harleys and lederhosens and chicks or something!

  • Wear what you like, dude. For protection on a bike leather is best but 501s can also be darn sexy when worn with harness or biker boots!

  • I agree! I am a biker and I only wear leather pants when I ride my motorcycle along with a leather jacket. I STILL get strange looks walking into a restaurant or at the gas station. I am carrying my helmet and gloves and obviously rode a motorcycle. But people look at me like I have two heads or something. The attention is unusual.

  • lederhosens were the ORIGINAL jeans. blue jeans were a cheap substitute after the cowboy days. Afterwards the media earmarked leather pants into the pit of BDSM, the Nazi Regime, and probably most infamously homosexuality. Maybe we need badass slogan for Leather Pants: FOR REAL MEN

  • nice pants man! & Boots! HOT!

  • Bravo!

  • Thank you Thank you Thank you. Makes perfect sense to me, but like you said so many other people have a hang up with it. It is so hard for me to find a good pair because i have a 32 waist and a 35 inseam. so not too common a size in leather on ebay, and not too many other places ive looked. But thanks for the inspiration and breaking through those social barriers that are put in place for no reason at all!

  • Hey what a great common-sense video. Leather jeans are incredibly practical, they can be worn with a polo shirt or T shirt in summer, a pullover in winter, and look really smart with a dinner jacket, formal shirt and bow-tie.

  • hey sportriderseattle, can you do a vid of how to properly care for leather car interiors? I think that would be great, since leather needs regular care and some people don't know exactly how to do it. Or maybe a vid about how to care for leather furniture, pants, jackets, etc? Btw, you looks really nice in leather!!!!

  • Man I want some leather pants just like those but i cant find them anywhere. Dude show me where i can buy pants like those.

  • I can't really steer you anywhere specific as these leathers are 2nd hand gear, which I got off ebay. So with that only recommendation would be to only bid on items on ebay if they have really good, clear and close-up photos where you can see the quality of the hide and cut...There's a lot of crap out there.

  • My best leather pants to date are Guccis bought from Ebay. They are so great, I even wear 'em to my gov't office.

    One minor interesting thing is I could tell my coworkers were just about to give me the business for wearing them until someone mentioned "hey those are Gucci!!". In an instant, it was all OK. They must think if I bought them at a fleamarket, it's just a foolist whim, but if I spent more than an Armani suit [yep...], I must know what I'm doing. In any case, who knows? :)

  • I wear leather pants for several reasons. First-I love leather and number two-to piss off those who have a problem with guys in leather pants. The more they hate it, the more I weat it.

  • A great commentary. I've been trying to understand for ever what society's hang up is with leather pants and I still don't get it. There is no logic to be had - only stupid stereotypes. Aren't we supposed to be past that?

    It's like every scenario of someone wearing leather pants is judged on a different scale:

    -A woman: mostly OK

    -A black woman: definitely OK

    -An older woman: risky

    -A white male: forget it - unacceptable

    -A black male: risky

    -Any rockstar: ideal

    -Any biker: ideal

  • AMEN! that's all i have to say... couldn't agree more!

  • Í´M weraing my lthr pants today, just because of u =)

  • you are absolutely right! i have a pair of leather pants and find them comfortable and a practical material that is durable and to be honest, damn sexy!

    though i do not yet have the confidence to wear them out which is such a shame.

    like minded people such as yourself are doing a great job of breaking the stigmas connected to wearing leather pants. be it gay or rock star.

    i want to wear what the hell i like!

    so should everyone else!

  • Why is it okay for guys to wear leather jackets, but not okay for guys to wear leather pants?? I don't see what the difference is.

  • What we simply need is for leather pants to somehow return to the mainstream and see more hot young celebs male and female in them just like circa 2000. and then many ordinary people will follow suit. ah, happy memories.

  • wow dude, amazingly straight to the point and damn right speech u gave about leatherpants

  • Hey Bud, couldn`t agree with you more. I`ve given up trying to explain peoples`attitudes towards guys in leather, at this stage, fuck'em. I wear what I want, when I want, and don`t answer to anyone for it. If there wasn`t a continent between us, I think we`d be good friends. Fight the good fight buddy.

  • well said! why do some people still have issues with men in leather pants? i wear them everyday, even to work. more guys should wear them, they are really practial and look so good!

  • j'aime bien ton pantalon en cuir, je veux le même

  • You are so amazingly handsome and look so great in leather...and the point you make is entirely true. I don't see why men wearing leather is such a big deal. They look great in it!

  • Lots of sense there... and I wholly agree with you. I'm straight and I wear them from time to time and I occasionally get the same jibes and sarcastic comments as this.

    Most of them are jealous because they daren't try the look!

  • I don't understand why some people think guys who wear leather pants are gay. I have seen celebrities like Justin Timberlake, Chris Cagle and Will Smith wear leather pants. All three men aren't gay.

  • I have a pair of brown leather pants made by Levi's. Here's the real issue: people are plain stupid.

  • Thank you Dr Leather, I have 15 pairs of leather pants, various styles and where them everyday, I could care less what people think.

  • I have 4 pairs of leather pants and I wear them when I want.

  • You make alot of sense. There are more things in life to be concerned about whether then a guy is wearing leather pants!

  • Leather pants are cool

  • fuckn' right!
