Loose Fit Jeans Making A Comeback This Spring

Though skinny jeans have become a recent men's fashion phenomenon - helped in no small part by NME-friendly bands like the Strokes and Razorlight - it is not a look for everyone. Depending on your build, skinny jeans can make you look dangerously skinny or almost like a court jester.



Luckily, for those who like to dress according to popular trends, yet don't like the idea of looking like they're wearing their girlfriend's jeans, loose fit jeans are gaining popularity; giving wearers versatile clothing and the additional comfort not afforded by skinny jeans. Good loose fit jeans should be casual, yet formal enough for the office and trendy enough for a night out, making them the perfect addition to your wardrobe this spring.



When trying on a pair of loose fit jeans, it is important to get the right fit. The length should be enough for the jeans to comfortably reach the floor when you're not wearing shoes; jeans that are excessively long are really just for teenagers. When it comes to the waist, bear in mind that jeans tend to expand with body-heat and shrink a little with the initial washes, so a comfortable, yet slightly snug fit should be acceptable. The jeans should also fit comfortably around the thighs, but again, don't go overboard and do expect a little expansion and shrinkage with the initial wears and washes.



The main thing when looking for loose fit jeans is to avoid buying the low-slung, baggy jeans which are popular with skaters and snowboarders. There are several retailers offering trendy loose fit jeans that can go with any occasion and not make you seem like you're trying to recapture lost youth and look like a teenager again.



When it comes to selecting the right finish, it really depends on the look you're going for. A darker finish will generally look more formal, but a general trend for jeans in the last decade has been for jeans to have gone through some sort of bleaching and/or have a distressed look to them. If in doubt, then a trusted friend or the shop assistant can help you out. Another tip is to wear what you'd expect to wear with the jeans when trying them on - just to be on the safe side.



So if you're fed up with the proliferation of drainpipes in men's fashion and are looking for a timeless, yet trendy and versatile way to spruce up your wardrobe this spring, loose fit jeans are the right choice for you.

Character?

The Minnesota Vikings traded Randy Moss because they wanted character individuals on their team. Well that's what they lead us to believe. Did they really trade Moss for that reason or did they want to dump his salary?
We believe there were other reasons for trading Moss.
So has trading Moss led to more character on the Vikings?

Lets take a look at some facts:

Mike Tice - Tice was fined for violating team rules when he scalped Super Bowl tickets. How does this show character? How is this being a good role model for his team? Why would his players follow the rules if their coach doesn't?
Obviously this type of behavior doesn't exhibit character and isn't good for his team.
This type of behavior is terrible.

Onterio Smith - Smith was suspended for the season for violating the NFL's substance abuse program. Wow, what a character individual to have on your team.
Smith was caught in an airport with a contraption called a Whizzenator.

Cruise Ship incident - Some Vikings players are being investigated by the Hennepin County Sheriff's office for allegedly taking part in sexual misconduct, prostitution and drugs (startribune.com).

The Vikings are really showing themselves to be character individuals.
the Vikings are 1-3 and are playing terribly. So how do they try to rectify the situation?
Instead of dealing with their terrible play, they decide to go on a cruise.

It's amazing that the Vikings can't tackle the broad side of a barn but they allegedly know how to get hot and heavy with some strippers . Maybe they should spend more time on the practice field and less time getting in trouble.

So this is the type of character that Mike Tice is after? I think these incidents make Randy Moss look like a Saint.

So why did the Vikings trade Moss? I think there are a few reasons:

1) His Salary - The Vikings wanted to dump Moss's salary even though his contract was relatively recent. When the Vikings signed Moss they actually believed they could win a Super Bowl. When they failed to win the big game, I think the Vikings felt it was necessary to trade him.

2) Some Vikings players were jealous that Moss was receiving all the press. I think they were jealous of his superstar status and didn't want him to receive all the publicity.
I think they hid behind the character excuse so he would be traded.

3) Too much negative publicity - I do think the negative publicity did play a role in Moss being traded. They probably thought they could deflect this negative publicity by trading Moss.

Randy Moss isn't with the Vikings and the negative publicity continues. The Vikings need a character re-adjustment and they need to hire a head coach who can lead by example and instill it in his players.
It's obvious that the Vikings lack the character that is needed to be successful in the NFL.
