Trouser Crisis.

[aqua]

for what it's worth I think you can pull it off you've got a clear YOU style anyway and I don't think it will clash with it

 

[mrs quoad]

Utility kilt = awesome!

 

[felixthecat]

I agree with Aqua. I think it'll look great

eta Please say you have chunky calves - its not a good look for skinny legs!

 

[El Jefe]

i have been told i have the caklves for a kilt (former prop forward, innit?)

 

[geminisnake]

any suggestions appreciated.

Don't think you'll appreciate this one but I'll post it anyway

Hammer time

 

[moose]

I think you need a bit of fake leopard fur trim on yer sporran

 

[AnnO'Neemus]

Kilt.

But be warned that after a few drinks all the women will be wanting to check out whether you're a true Scotsman.

A friend of mine was. When he lifted it (he was also a bit of an exhibitionist) all the womenfolk expected him to be wearing something underneath. He wasn't. Cue girly squeals.

 

[butterfly child]

The kilt rocks.

TBH though, any trousers worn over that cage-y thing is going to look a bit.

Have it on show, and be proud.. people will all want to know what it's about anyway and it's pretty impressive in a twisted way.

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

utility kilt. The moustache kinda makes my point

i think te kilt rocks mate

i'd grow a moustache actually

 

[Kanda]

I've just reminded Ju she owes you a kilt

 

[Tank Girl]

i'd grow a moustache actually

yeah, i think that moustache is brilliant too

 

[cliche guevara]

Remember those tracksuit bottoms with poppers down the sides that were popular on the continent around a decade ago? That, but with your favorite jeans

 

[ShiftyBagLady]

oh this thread is not what i was expecting.
i thought trouser crisis was a euphemism, like wardrobe malfunction.
disappointed.

 

[Paulie Tandoori]

yeah, i think that moustache is brilliant too

and it would give you something to twiddle as you waited for the bus eh?!

 

[Clair De Lune]

Mr, you have a fuck off piece of metal in your leg, you could go round with nothing but a feather up your arse and nobody would notice.

 

[MysteryGuest]

I within 2 weeks of you going out dressed like that there'll be twats walking around Shoreditch wearing utility kilts complete with fake knee cages.

 

[Gromit]

£150! That would buy me a lot of jeans.

 

[El Jefe]

£150! That would buy me a lot of jeans.

and me, but we've established why jeans are no fucking use to me

 

[El Jefe]

kilt's arrived. I'm a bit um and ah about it, but I think it needs lots of adjusting and playing with - so many straps and velcro bits etc - and trying with different tops and footwear. Beautiful material and cut and everything. Biggest problem is that it finishes EXACTLY where the brace starts so it looks a bit odd.

 

[subversplat]

Heeey that looks a bit like my frame. I'm going for baggyish combats/shorts and jeans with one leg cut off

 

[El Jefe]

jeanswith one leg cut off

but even getting the top half of the jeans over the frame is tricky - it'll mean undoing the inside leg and then fitting poppers or velcro or something, surely? Or have you had a better idea I can copy

 

[xes]

Strippers trousers have poppers up the inside leg!!

 

[subversplat]

Just pull them over with violence I think. My frame is lower Tibia thoughso not much wider than my upper leg. We'll see, I'm still on the inside at the mo

 

[El Jefe]

OK, Fling The Abuse

i look pale and pasty cos I don't get to go out.

 

[Tank Girl]

cool

 

[El Jefe]

really? i think it will actually look better without the brace, which fucks the way it hangs a bit

 

[El Jefe]

but it beats fucking Bermuda Shorts

 

[Crispy]

It's good
(you've totally got the legs for it)

 

[El Jefe]

i've got till Monday to send it back

 

[Looby]

It's great. I know it was really expensive but you could get PieFace or Tanky to take it up half an inch so it doesn't hang over your brace. You can always take it down again when the brace is off.
