Either you will entirely disbelieve this, or believe it only skeptically. A recent research suggests that wearing jeans after a certain age is really not good for outward appearances. As astounding as it sounds, this study is steeped in statistics and surveys. Fashion advisors have come with this, and you may choose to go your own way, but here is what they have to say.
A survey by CollectPlus in UK aimed to look at the connection between denims and age limit. In order to do so, they surveyed almost 2000 people across the UK. The result of the survey claimed that people 53 or plus should opt out of jeans.
The logic behind the result – older people were hard put to find their best fit. As people get older, trying on and finding “the one” when it comes to jeans, becomes increasingly difficult. This frustrates a lot of people and just wouldn’t be worth it, as per the findings. Trying luck online can have the same effect. Returning an item that does not fit would only end up costing more.
Fashion experts claim that jeans may not suit everyone, especially after a certain age. But hey, wearing what you’re comfortable in is the important bit, right?

Definitely disagree. The key is finding the right-fitting jeans and buying in several different shades (if offered). I found jeans with a bit of stretch that fit well and are as comfortable as sweatpants. Score!

Perhaps the problem isn’t with the fabric but with the manufacturers; they need to make clothing that fits the demographic that wants to wear it. There are smal and large people of all ages creating a “cut-off”age is absurd. I am an extremely small woman well over 53 and wouldn’t give up my jeans for anything!

Are you insane? I’m almost 80 and I wouldn’t give up my jeans for the Queen of England should she be silly enough to declare me too old to wear them. I live in them. Cut off jeans in the summer even. How silly can an article get anyway?
