    Pleated pants are getting harder to find, which is a shame. I prefer the look.

      Pleated pants are back in. You’ll see them more in Gen Z fashion right now - so maybe back at Jos A in about 2-3 years.

        Alright, @xenon, if not Jos A., what stores I should visit to find pleated pants?

                  Just go right for the skinny jeans, Ax.

                    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                      Visited a Men's Warehouse and a Nordstrom, neither stocks any pleated pants. (Nordstrom has pleated pants online as demonstrated by @xenon's link, but none in the brick-and-mortar store I visited.)

                      Also, "slim fit" seems to be in vogue these days. I see more "slim fit" in stock than "regular" or "classic" fit. As if Americans have gotten slimmer over the last decade. :man-shrugging:

                        Isn't slim fit a style that has come over from Europe? Germans in particular always seem to have suits that look slightly too small for them. I rather doubt that the look is improved by the journey across the pond.

                        I was only joking
