yeah pleats are so gross, so are those generously cut billowy style oxfords that Brooks Brothers and the like sell (JUST WEAR SHIT THAT FITS, DUMBY)

pleats can be cool but they also can get out of control real fast, sans pleats is def a safer approach
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 June 2013 15:41 (ten years ago) link
so i guess leave pleats to the experts is prob the best approach

i don't like pleats on regular cotton twill khakis because they just look stiff and wrinkly, but if you're talking about wool suit trousers where the fabric actually has a nice drape then pleats can look great

i have a tweed suit w single pleats and you hardly even notice them especially w the jacket and all

Based on my observations of people hanging out in the sun today, I can report that FUN SHORTS haven't caught on in Cambridge yet. Was tempted to vanguard a pair of these, but the shop didn't have my size:
