Mac, Jeff -- dudes, get with it! I enjoy and/or agree with almost everything you two post around here, and you seem both in your ways to be stylish fellows, but on this one JLahrman and I aren't sharing some late-breaking news, or going out on a limb: no one, I mean no one, needs to wear anything but a flat-fronted pant. (And this is coming from someone who, as JM knows, loves the look of the old Cary Grant and Fred Astaire and, I'd add, Gene Kelly -- I even roll up my pants at the bottom cause it reminds me of Kelly in American in Paris. I even tuck my sweater into my pants - my flat front pants). Why? Because on a heavy set fellow the pleats don't hide anything, and in fact just make one look even heavier; while on a slimmer fellow, the pleats add an unnecessary -- and most often incongruous, given our more pedestrian pursuits in the modern era -- element of 'class'.
Just looking out for you guys, hope you don't mind...
