Yoga Pants: The Real Story
Since their popularization in the 6th century (BC) by Iranian horse riders, trousers, generally referred to today as pants have made their way from Iran to Greece, from Central Asia and India to Europe and finally to the Americas and beyond. Once a privilege and symbol of standing, power and prosperity to the noblemen and women of the day, pants have evolved from a luxury to a necessity. They are now a world-wide phenomena, available to virtually every man, woman and child of any socio-economic status on the earth.
Whether to serve an utilitarian need or to make a fashion statement each and every pair of pants has a point and a purpose and a home in our hearts. Some are created to withstand elements, others environments. The way you look at the place of work is different than how you look at the club and your pants can make or break it. You may not be able to judge a book by its cover, but what about a person by their pants.
Every pair has had their moments in history, their occasions of glory and others have epically failed. Some have reached a novelty status. Remember bell bottoms? What were they thinking? Even so many have tried, few have survived. It’s really and quite literally a survival of the fittest. Corduroy, capris, chaps, boot cut, slim fit, khaki, business, casual, business-casual, wool, cotton, skin tight, rayon, leg warmers, sequence, jogger, and, let us never forget MC. Hammer pants. That was a man of magnificent pants!
There is one, however, a hidden gem, or, diamond in the rough if you will, in this world of the seemingly limitless leg coverings that has quite possibly survived the longest and has for centuries passed below the radar. Possibly it’s because they have never demanded to be known. For many years these britches were worn in private and hardly ever ever saw the light of day. Though some may have hidden them away they were never a secret. I’m talking about Yoga pants. Yoga pants are the new sex. They have been in the corner of everybody’s mind since time immemorial, everybody’s been discussing them, about them, wanting them, living their lives just to get one simple fitting, just one leg slipped into a nice, soothing cottony, spandexy or blended pair of deliciously comfortable Yoga pants or other Yoga apparel.
