Buying a guy jeans?
Hello everyone. This question is more for guys, or for females who have faced similar circumstances. I'm open to any answers, but I really need a "personal experience" perspective, not an opinion, from a girl ;]
My boyfriend wears AWFUL jeans. Now, I'm not complaining, 'waaah I wanna change my man and he wears loose jeans'. No. He's worn the same jeans for five years. Literally.These jeans have missing pockets, are ripped beyond recognition, and have paint splatters from his job (which is putting it nicely. There's more paint than jean in some cases)
I don't have issues in that he still wears them. It's the fact that he wears these jeans when he go out on dates that bothers me. Would it be out of line to buy him new jeans? I know his size, and what brands he likes. And I wouldn't be forcing him to throw out jeans he loves- I know that men refuse to throw anything out that they think is comfortable (my dad's the same way, as is every other male I know). I just want my boyfriend to look nice when we're out!
So, guys, would you be mad if your girlfriend bought you a new pair of jeans and asked you to wear them when you were on a date?
We've been dating for almost a year, he's 19, I'm 17. Thank you!

My ex-did the same thing. I took him shopping to get a new shirt. At first he was mad but soon got over it and became thankfull. Soon he was wearing his new shirt to much.

I think if I did that for my boyfriend, he'd be flattered that I took the time to think of him & even spend my money on him.
I don't think your boyfriend should see a problem with it. Just tell him that those are the jeans he should wear when going out, and that the ones that are his favorite are for the house or a friend's or something.
If you want to go ahead, I agree with what someone mentioned below. I'd buy him a whole outfit. Probably just a button up shirt and shirt to go under or something.

I thin I can help you here.
When my fiance and I started dating 5 yrs ago, he was wearing jeans that were too tight in all the wrong places. (If ya knw what I mean) and helped him out.
Here's what you got to do:
If your relationship is a good one, be mature about the pants situation. There's no reson to get n a fight or anything, just sit down with him, and tell him that you really love his style, but say that when you go out on dates, you want to look nicer then EVER. Then suggest that BOTH of you go shopping to buy 1 new outfit EACH.
Buy him a whole outfit instead of just a pair of jeans. That way its less about "I don't like your jeans here's a new pair" and more along the lines of "wow lets get this awesome looking outfit! We are gonna look so fresh tonight!"
And then let him help you pick out an outfit for you. That way the focus isn't all on his style (and you get new clothes.lol)
Doing it this way will be less harsh and more fun!
Hope this helps!! =]

My boyfriend is the same way. Baggy jeans that are so old they rip a little more everytime he bends his knees and he wears them out! I think I've gotten 4 new pairs of jeans and he hasn't gotten any in the time we've been together. I'd go ahead and get him some new jeans. I always tell my bf he needs new jeans and he agrees so he's not offended or anything. Maybe you can get them as an anniversary or birthday gift or tell him you went to the mall and they were on sale really cheap so it doesn't sound like you went out of your way..it was just something you thought of as you walked by. They're not going to be old and comfy so just put them in the dryer to get the new jean feel out of them.
