Crew. (they're actually a little too big/baggy) Thank you for the BR recs--I am going to check them out tomorrow--there's a BR right across the street from my office!</p> <p>I'm considering making the leap to more premium denim, too; I'm guessing they won't have this type of problem. I haven't ever bought a "good" pair of jeans (the old, I don't want to spend that kind of $$ until I lose weight thing), but after reading all about them here, I am thinking that it's probably worth the money to look and feel good--and I'll probably look better (thinner!) in them anyway! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327437 Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:57:50 +0000 sarah 327437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie's recommendations from BR - the Martin skinnies and the Sloan fit flares - are made with blends that don't wrinkle at all. Part of the reason I love them is that they are very well behaved all day long. When you're shopping for new pants, you might check those out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327428 Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:46:00 +0000 Kristine 327428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have that problem with cotton pants, but usually not with jeans or poly/lycra blend pants. My guess is it's probably the fabric and maybe also the fit. </p> <p>Sometimes I can tug the top of the thigh smooth when I sit to make it a little better, but mostly I've just phased out the pants that do that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327414 Thu, 07 Apr 2011 00:29:25 +0000 Angie 327414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What brand of jeans are you wearing in the photo? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327322 Wed, 06 Apr 2011 22:10:22 +0000 lyn* 327322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I notice this to be a problem in my pants made of light material, and ones that are too loose in the thigh area. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327273 Wed, 06 Apr 2011 21:03:36 +0000 Arya 327273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The only thing that I can think of, is that you may run a little hotter, body temperature-wise, and effectively end up ironing the creases into your pants when you're sitting. If the fit is relatively snug (at least when you sit), and you sit for awhile...long enough to be warm, and if there's any relative humidity where you are, then your body may be acting like an iron...</p> <p>Sorry I can't suggest a solution for the situation, but that's my best guess as to the cause of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327211 Wed, 06 Apr 2011 18:17:43 +0000 Lisalou 327211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Mo--that may very well be the problem! I'll have to start hunting around for pants with stretch. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327151 Wed, 06 Apr 2011 16:25:38 +0000 Mo 327151@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you have any stretch in the fabric? Perhaps that would help them to stretch back into shape and not just crease. I know my cotton and linen items wrinkle a lot more than any blends with lycra or elastane. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/why-do-my-pants-crease-like-this#post-327097 Wed, 06 Apr 2011 15:20:16 +0000 Lisalou 327097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I sit at a desk all day, but no matter what type of pants or jeans I wear--no matter the fabric or cut--they get these awful creases after just a few minutes of sitting:</p> <p><a href="http://i53.tinypic.com/atkadt.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i53.tinypic.com/atkadt.jpg</a></p> <p>I realize sitting all day can exacerbate creasing, but why don't all of my coworkers have creased pants, too? Is it the quality of fabric? Something else? It drives me nuts--if I sit on the train to work, I get to work looking all creased and un-polished, even after painstaking ironing before leaving the house.</p> <p>Related question: Why do all my jeans get a line/pull across the middle of the thigh? I'm quite certain I'm wearing the correct size--and even jeans that end up a little baggy get that line for me. </p> <p>Thanks fashion experts!! </p>
