Bright Colored PANTS for Boys?

I'm shopping for BTS, and noticed on GapKids some pants in bright colors.

Noticing the trend of colored pants for girls, but do you think this will catch on for boys?

Will your boy(s) be wearing colored bottoms this year?

They can have their own sense of style, but of they want to go walking around looking like little girls that id where I draw the line

Neon colors are so in!!!! My sil and I were just talking about that tonight! The boys are all wanting trucking neon colors and fricking skinny Jeans!!!!! HELL TO THE NO!!!! Are They going to be walking around looking like little fems on my dime. I refuse to buy that crap

So they are forced to strut around in mom's sense of style rather than their own just because they are too young to make their own money?


Reminds me of a story that my DH still gets upset about (not really upset but ykwim).  When DH was in jr high he wanted a buzz cut that was so popular at the time.  His mom refused to get him one saying "it's just a fad, it looks ridiculous, you'll get tired of it".  So he was never allowed to have his hair cut that way.  The really funny part about his story - IT'S HAIR!  IT WILL GROW BACK!  But she thought it was horrible and she refused to get him a cut like that.  Well, for the past 10+ years I have been buzzing DH's hair for him.  He's got it now and his mom just had to get used to it.


Unless it's obscene or against dress code, I do not see the point at all in refusing them their own style with hair and clothing.

IDK, I clicked on the link, and they really aren't that bright.

My son has several really bright soccer/gym shorts that he wears pretty regularly. I love his bright, bright green shorts. He looks great in bright colors. Usually he'll pair the bright shorts with a white or black shirt, and so it's not too loud but still looks nice.

LOL. I was expecting the colors in post. They don't seem so bright to me. I think DS would wear them. He loves tie dye.

Yeah, I didn't see how brown, tan, rust, and khaki were that controversial....LOL
