Seeing people dressed sloppily in public is a bummer to me. Being well dressed elevates society, and in America in most places this is almost completely lost. Being well dressed shows you care, it looks nice, it’s sort of a sign of respect for yourself and others. People having no consideration for aesthetics or beauty in their dress whatsoever is sad and disheartening, much like walking around a city with very ugly architecture as opposed to a beautiful city. People need beauty.I guess that gets at my point- why are sweat pants (or similar comfortable clothing) automatically considered 'sloppy' and not something acceptable to wear in public? Again, not trying to pick on your views personally, as this is the current societal view. Whereas slacks or even jeans are ok, even though I've known plenty of people I'd consider sloppy who regularly wore both.
Maybe that's more of a rhetorical question, but it's a social more I hope eventually fades away. Over the decades, jeans slowly became acceptable professional work and social attire for men. I'm hoping it continues in that direction.
