Puma

For many years now I've been wearing trousers and jeans that were purchased from 'womens' stores and shops. I always get either the bootcut or flared leg versions, and I buy them in a variety of lengths to suit all occasions, ie some are longer length for complete stealth mode when wearing heels, and some are a suitable length for when I'm wearing trainers/flat shoes etc.
I do find the cut and fit much more comfortable, and often the prices are more reasonable too.
One thing that sometimes bothers me, is which side the zip closure is on.
Mostly womens trousers close to the left, which obviously defines them as 'womens', but even when I have worn such trousers in formal situations, no one has ever noticed, but sometimes I still feel conscious about it.
However, there are also some manufacturers/stores that sell 'womens' trousers/jeans with the closure to the right, Miss Sixty and GAP spring to mind.
Some of the 'flared' trousers and jeans are wide enough to cover the whole shoe, which makes them also obviously 'womens' as it's virtually impossible to find such trousers in 'mens' stores.
But like our choice in footwear, why should trousers etc be gender specific?

Oh one other thing, I never ever get that certain disapproving look from my wife when I have even the most obviously looking 'womens' trousers on! Wish it was the same when I wear heels!
