in preparing this post, there were a list of lame jokes and titles that i came up with. of course, all of them did not meet the final cut (geddit, geddit? final cut!). so some of those titles include 'start panting', 'pant-demonium' and 'penning about pants'. anyway, pants are another article of clothing common to men. a pant in general is a piece of clothing used to cover legs. pants can be made of any material but mostly they are made of cotton, nylon, denim, wool, spandex or polyester.
today there is a great variety of different types of pants for men. for men pants are the most important article of clothing as unlike women who can wear dresses and skirts, men only have the option of wearing pants with shirts. still, men’s pants are simpler and fewer in types then women. here are some types of pants used by men:
1) trousers
trousers are straight pants made of cotton, linen, polyester, wool or nylon. usually trousers are made for formal purposes and are worn below dress shirts. trousers have their pockets stitched inwards and can vary with the width of the legs. trousers are widely classified into two categories: pleated and flat front.
pleated trousers: these pants are one of the classiest type of pants. these pants have pleats in front and are highly sophisticated, elegant and trendy. pleated trousers can be worn on any occasion whether it’s a dinner, a wedding or a job interview. the best thing about pleated pants is that they have never gone out of fashion. These simple pants go along any dress shirt.
flat front trousers: as the name suggests, flat front trousers are flat from the front. these pants were very popular once, particularly in the 1970s. these pants are made for those who have a slimmer body shape. shirts are usually tucked under the pants when wearing these pants. while buying a flat front pant one must be sure that it fits him perfectly.
2) jeans and denims

jeans and denims are, by far, the most popular types of pants for men. these are casual pants worn under polo shirts and t-shirts. there is a large variety of jeans and denims available in markets. apart from formal occasions jeans can be worn anywhere, in fact jeans has become dress code for informal occasions.
3) cargo pants
cargo pants are the most comfortable of all the types of pants. these pants are loose and baggy boasting an extremely comfortable and cool look. they are perfect for outdoor activities such as trekking and hiking. cargo pants are made of a hardwearing fabric which is stitched via hard stitching allowing free movements. mostly cargo pants are worn with polo shirts and t-shirts.
hope you are not panting over your pants!
