    I have 2 pair of super cozy joggers I just picked up and almost wanna go and get like 6 more for backups lol. I know when I need new pants, these won't be on the racks. I have a few pair of stretchy jeans that are actually wearable without too much suffering I'd like some backups for but they cost $50 and I can't afford that now.

    It's funny because your comment reminds me of that old image of a grocery store shelf in Cuba full of tomato sauce and people were all like "Only one brand? We have choice in Amerikkka!" and I was like "It's fucking tomato sauce. It shouldn't even need one brand!"

      My two favourite pairs of joggers are over a decade old by now. One is on the verge of needing repairs. The other has been held together by sashiko for a couple of years. They're still preferable to anything I've found in stores for a long time.

      Really bugs me that joggers became skinny and/or without cuffs and always with pockets too small for my hands, nevermind a phone or wallet. Useless clothing.
