does anyone own or still wear those house shoes?
a girl friend of my has a son that is 5 and he had those house shoes on it just made me laugh and think of the past. i havnt wore them since the school.
OK, that said what is a Mom to do? Every pair of pants I buy my 3 YEAR OLD seems to be low waisted even sweats. My husband ends up hicking her pants up so high she ends up looking like Erkle(sp). She is a big girl so I have to buy her 6x or size 8 clothes and shorten them. I would never wear pants loke taht and I hate that I can't find appropiate clothes for my daughter.
besides I hate wearing shoes....socks too. Especially in the house.
yup. i still wear my house shoes. in black though. some habits are hard to break.
I am surprised your not wearing the Steelers Crocs ,they are sold at SUSQUEHANNA sports store.
The company I work for we are shipping Crocs around the USA and other countries.
I still love my house shoes and have wore them since I graduated.

That is the most ridiculous story I have ever heard.

Don't know about that, but here in SC had a major problem with the kids wearing pants so loose that they would fall of them for shock value. One day a cop pulls over a car with 4 teen / young adults in it, all 4 are wearing those type of pants. Cop proceeds to have them exit the car and put there hands on the hood of the vehical (sp). As one cop starts to pat down the people the other cop has his gun drawn and tells them to keep there hands on the hood. Well one of the guys ended up with his pants at his ankles with every one driving by got mooned (which he turned around to pull them up only after making sure it was ok with the cop. The news paper report said that the driver was pulled for speeding, all 4 were arrested for drug use, and the guy who lost his pants was charged with indecent expoxer (sp). The only charge the defender couldn't get dropped was the indecent (he got something like 5 years in jail).
later from the local resturant grapevine we find out that the prosocuting attorny drove by at the time of arrest with his 5 year old daughter in the car and she saw the guy with his pants down, just as he turned to pull up his pants. he admended / changed the charges to one more. The charge had to do with showing himself to childred (making it an act of an adult expoxsing to a minor) which carried the mandantor sentance that he got...
So yea in a way they are busting down on it down here. even if it is by a creative means....
p.s. walmart was sold out of belts for about 2 months straight after he got sentanced... (and for the most part don't see the underware in public around here anymore) but it is a small town..
There are many reasons I would like to see modesty restored to our society. And aren't there certain places that are starting to make laws against showing your underwear in public? Or something like that?
state my case? I said in the bar I work at. These are adults and they have the right to wear anything they want. Yes, some girls should look in the mirror before going out in these type jeans. Others wear them to perfection. I would not like my young Great nieces wearing them as they are 12, 14 and 16. They are inappropriate for this age group. I do not drule over these fine young ladies in the bar, although I have dated a few.

PS... I am a active man for my age, or just blind and horny. I haven't figured that out yet.
Yeah, Linda! Since when?!?!
I think you need a new pair of eyes. Yours seem to be distorting things a bit. Either that, or Mr. Murf put a curve in one of his famous mirrors!
Did you ever have one of those nights when something was just nagging you in he back of your brain, and you knew that the only was that you would EVER get to sleep was to let it have it's say?
Well, I did. And it all got said in a blog entry based on the whole "appropriate clothing" angle that this thread has taken over the last several posts.
Its the entry in my blog called "Testosterone and Responsibility". But it's brutal. My toes won't be right for DAYS after being stepped on so much.
So read away, if you care to. But be warned... it ain't pretty, it ain't comfortable, and it MIGHT just sting a little.
Since when are you fat?? I don't think that people view you that way, at least I don't!
I did see that movie...ha ha ha. Sad thing is whether we speak of them or not...they are out there and all around us. Too many parents today aren't involved...we can of course relate to that..but what's even worse is... alot of the mom's dress the same way.
We've all got boobs and derriere...but modesty and self respect are apparently only given to a select few.
did you ever see that movie The Village? with the "ones we don't speak of. hahah Anyhow, I forgot to add....those little thirteen thru 25 year olds are someone's daughters too, I as a dad...that is if i was a dad, 
would be mortified to hear people like Larry and even all the younger guys cat calling and drooling over my little girl, where are the parents!~!!!!
You go girl...I agree 100%...but then we already knew that didn't we 
me and my big mouth.
I personally am sick of seeing women's derriere cracks hanging out, it used to only be when they bent over...now they don't even have to bend over. It is disrespectful to wear that stuff, it shows they don't care about the little boys they are corrupting or the men that end up with unfaithful thoughts. I think it is sick to display yourself like a piece of meat, they have magazines for that crap. So keep your low risers to yourself and please keep track of your crack!!! Jack I love that show, and that quote is perfect...I totally will adopt that when teaching my own daughters.
ok being from the jersey shore (until i was 12) sandy beaches are best barefoot... no flip flops or any foot ware...
like i said before, the only time that i am with out shoes now is when i am behind the wheel... barefoot i can make anyone think that a stickshift is a lot smoother the any automatic, with shoes you would know you are in a manual car for sure... i know its sad but true...
As far as the low raise jeans (and daisy dukes as well)... I think (and like) the more that is left to the imagination (less revealing) does more in the appeal process of me. I realize i might be the exception to the common rule, but if we were all alike then who would be different / and there would be no variety in life....
Also, having a teen girl, this topic is of particular interest to me. Clothing is about showing personality and reflecting WHO she is; not about drawing unwanted attention or making her look like what no parent wants their child to look like!

my wife said someone on a show called "What not to Wear" said:
Think about the top of a muffin then think about the type of people that shouldn't wear low riders and imagine how they would look.
what's that? 
At the risk of losing my "man-card", I need to submit a qualified "no-thank-you" on the low-rise jeans. There are some on whom they look spectacular, but more often than not, ... well ... they don't. For me, I'll take a nice fitting pair of boot cut western jeans and ... er ...
I'm with you on this one. If there is any evidence of a "muffin-top" type situation then the jeans should not be worn.
I will let my feet shine where ever i feel free! Thanks 
Just please keep the flip flops to the beach or shower.
you all

PS... You can put a Mink coat on a pig, but it is still a pig. Referring to flip flops come in many colors or designs.
man-card has now been revoked. I agree there are some who should pick a better jean. The ones who do have the proper "fit" in them are the ones I am referring to only.

They are for the shower or beach only. Next they will be wearing them to summer weddings.
I love womens feet, but there is a time and place for them. ...
I'm a nekkid' feet sort of guy. Growing up in Central Pennsyltucky, you didn't wear shoes as a kid until there was a danger of frostbite. I swear, growing up the callouses on my feet were like hooves. Now days, since I've spent years as an adult in a workplace where shoes are a big a requirement as pants (I know the jokes are gonna fly off of *THAT* one!) I have whimpy feet like everyone else! Sheesh, as a youngster, I could sprint across cinders and not even feel it! The closest I can get to that now is flip-flops.
[But I still go "foot-nekkid" at every opportunity!]

With my daughter who HATES them!!!!!!! (Not that she'd be allowed to wear them anyway!!!!!) 
But, I do feel your pain Markus, It is such a hassle trying to find anything butt low riders!!!!
It's a tough job but somebody has to do it.
One of them doesn't live with us though. 
long story. I know the crying emoticon looks funny but I assure you I don't take it lightly. She broke my
"as saying" anything?
Murf, being a father of four girls...God Bless ya!!!
Larry might start to like me!!!!!
Honestly as a father with four daughters I think Low Rider jeans are a pain in the derriere. When a trend is as popular as they are it's hard when shopping for jeans to find anything butt. Puns intended.
lol lol
talk about those sexy, lovely, inviting jeans. I can go on for hours about them. In the bar I work, those hotties wear then all the time and I keep losing my train of thought when they walk by or stop to talk to me. It drives me a wonderful kind of crazy.

Larry might start to like me!!!!!
...and that would be a bad thing

PS... Please forgive this post. I am just a horny old man.lol
I mean "hate" IS a pretty powerful word!!!!! 
(I'm bustin' your chops here Larry!)
Yep, you beat me to it with your PS!!!! I was about to call you out!!!!!
and my feet are very nice, from what i am told. They have so many different kinds of flip flops, very stylish. Get up with the times, it's 2007! Low rider jeans are hot, i agree w/ you on that one.
My husband actually has a pair of house shoes, and I can't remember where he got them from, I found them under our bed the other day.
women and men going out in flip flops. They are for the shower or beach only. Next they will be wearing them to summer weddings.

I haven't worn them since the milt. But before i came to the Milt i lived in LA Calif. and all of the skaters wore them, and they are called Vans. That was in the 70's, Vans are still going strong today.
Every color and print you can imagine. My personal fav, the black and white checker board style.
I am also a bare footer, and i own like 25 pairs of flip flops. Now that it's getting colder, i have to break out actual shoes,
Actually now, the house shoes the school gives out are KEDS, at least for the girls they are anyway.
But I'm with Lisa. As soon as I can, I go barefoot, everywhere. However, I think I spend more money on my pedicures than I do on my shoes!!!!!! I guess that makes sense.....if I'm going to subject people to my feet, I want them to be NICE feet!!!!
We're not here for a long time, We're here for a good time !

yeah but not the ones that we had back then I have the little chinese or asian black ninja slip ons... what can I say I love to be different.

back to the future, and noticed the Doc ( when hanging from the clock ) was wearing a pair..
Believe or not, but am pretty sure he was...
it's funny you mention that. I had bought a 2 for one deal at Walmart and it was HOUSESHOES, but it kinda made me chuckle at the time but I didn't really think about it much when we went on a trip to Hershey. My kids were playing in my old houseparents student home and Mom Laufferty leans over and says, and they are even wearing houseshoes! I cracked up and couldn't stop laughing.
make her clothes.
