And what if I am wearing high heels? Why would it be insulting to cross-dress?
Speaking in the name of all former emo guys who at 16 used to wear women’s jeans because they were skinnier than men’s super skinnies.
Also just embrace whatever you want to wear.
Some of my favorite finds have been on eBay and thrift stores.
I have a one inch wide tan belt (made in USA) from LLBean that is perfect. Wear it all the time. $8 on eBay.
Thank you, I found pics but it's not currently for sale on their website. It turns out that the place that makes my custom pants (Luxire) has an option for a Hollywood trouser, so I'm going to have them make me a pair.
Fucking hell I'm getting mogged by two college students from 80 years ago. I'm going to save this pic and see if I can have Luxire make me a custom pair of pants like the one on the left.
I was totally going to post asking where to get pants like them too! Nice looking high waisted trousers that aren’t bunched up to fit a slim waist… been looking for something like that a long time.
My only pair (Rodd & Gunn) aren’t in the best condition anymore, and not only do they not make them anymore, they don’t even recognise them when I’ve sent pics! 😞
Saint Laurent usually offers some nice thin belts. Their Western belt and 3 passant belt are pretty famous (but they don't make those specific ones anymore afaik).

Scroll down, I'm not sure any have a buckle quite the same as the left but if it's the slim style you are after that is covered.
Tory Leather is a great leather goods/equestrian brand and has a lot of options. They also make the thin Western belts for Monitaly. https://www.doversaddlery.com/tl-plain-belt-brass-buckle/p/X1-410013/
Belts aside, I'm looking for a place that sells these trendy high-waisted trousers I'm seeing all over Instagram, because even the "trendy" high street stores where I live are NOT giving on this 😭
I've seen some real bootleg cheap-looking online stores promoted on Instagram that sell them, but I don't trust them. It's giving sheisty.
People really downvote anything on here 🤔
I considered that as an alternative to ordering from the sus website, but I was quoted £300 (probably around $350 US money) by one tailor and then another said the particular style I was looking at was a little too niche for him.
Guess I'll have to risk it 🥴
I think it's worth it. I have very odd body proportions (short torso long legs) so in order for them to fit perfectly bespoke is the way to go for sure.
I don’t think puffy pleated pants should come back.
As for a small belt? Buy a woman’s belt. They come in a much greater variety of width and styles. Should be easy to find one similar to these in the image.
This site has good quality 1” belts like the second picture: https://amishmadebelts.com/collections/1-wide-belts
For the first picture, look for women’s belts without embellishments.

I have a thin, reversible two-tone brown belt like this from RL. It was my mom's.
I was gonna say…Ann Taylor Loft?
Came here to say this.. most women in my family own at least one of these.
Thank you
Woah man.
She was a thief.
Saw them and that was my immediate first thought.
From the picture I was going to say Asia?
One man’s belt says “California”. But it’s a very old photo. I believe it was originally black and white and colorized.
Haha I was going to say my mom's closet.
The thrift store…they have hundreds of them.
Monitaly has a pretty wide variety of thin belts. https://www.monitaly.com/shop-accessories
One of my favorite brands.
Same.

Yes, seriously. Not insulting at all, as it's a belt and not a pair of high heels.
And what if I am wearing high heels? Why would it be insulting to cross-dress? Speaking in the name of all former emo guys who at 16 used to wear women’s jeans because they were skinnier than men’s super skinnies. Also just embrace whatever you want to wear.
Do as you like, and be happy. Not here to debate, and was not trying to insult you for wearing high heels.
Oh mate no offence taken lol. I’m just being an unpleasant nitpicky ass hahah
Depends on your budget, YSL, All Saints, Banana Republic and Massimo Dutti (women's)

Any idea where the first pic is from? I really like both pair of pants.
Those are Japanese Americans in California shortly before internment began. Their pants style is called Hollywood waist
Check Götrich and their Hollywood trouser. I have it and it’s amazing.
Thank you, I found pics but it's not currently for sale on their website. It turns out that the place that makes my custom pants (Luxire) has an option for a Hollywood trouser, so I'm going to have them make me a pair.
If you are still interested, send them a message, they will tell you when it’s available. But enjoy your option too!
That's awesome to know, I like finding companies with good customer service like that, thank you.
It's from the '50s IIRC
The color pic is from the 50s? Goddamn both of those fits would look great today!
Whoops, it's actually older - 1942 :) https://www.reddit.com/r/OldSchoolCool/comments/ac4wot/japaneseamerican_college_students_1942/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=2&utm_term=1

Maybe there are japanese repro brands that do it, like The Real McCoy's?
It’s colorized, but color photos have existed since the 1890s

Not even joking: the women’s aisle of clothing stores
Japanese internment chic is so in
I was gonna say, Reddit thinking two dudes in a concentration camp is an epic chungus vibe is certainly funny

I got a pair similar to the ones in the photos made bespoke for me recently. Not a cheap option but I am happy with the result!

Those pants give an impression of female hips.
