Bar bans men from flaunting 'bare ankles' in jeans, sweats - New York Post

Gotta keep out the bar-barians.

A UK bar has come under fire for banning male patrons from wearing tracksuits, rolled up jeans and other ankle-flaunting articles of clothing. The Edinburgh, Scotland-based watering hole has defended the dress code, claiming they're simply holding the line against a regrettable trend, according to SWNS.

The pub posted a sign prohibiting "turned up jeans, bare ankles and shoe combinations" and "jobby catchers" (British slang for tracksuit). To drive the point home, the self-proclaimed "old skool" bar that "knows how to party" circled the fashion faux pas in red — much like the conservative dress code at Thai temples. And they're even mulling a ban on flip-flops, reports the Edinburgh Evening News.

Suffice it to say, the stringent rules prompted accusations of "snobbishness" from local barhoppers. "Ofgs (oh for god's sake) . . . people can wear what they want. Really," said one naysayer.

Another ranted: "Instead of worrying about who wears what in their snobby pup, get rid of those benches outside the pub on the pavement as you can hardly get past there, I like to see dogs cocking their leg on them from time to time — retribution."

Needless to say, the Dreadnought defended their clothing ordinance with a hilarious Facebook tirade, claiming the aforementioned couture "makes the place look scruffy," EEN reported.

They added, "if the first you see when you walk in is a group of lads wearing matching grey marl jobby catchers, we may as well have installed a beaten up bus shelter in the corner and invited folk to take a slash against it."

And for those who base their fashion choices on "Urban Outfitters staff," the Dreadnought has the bar for you — "Brewdog," per the post.

Social-media boozehounds seconded their sentiment. "Joggies are for exercise or cutting about the house, if you wear them to the pub you've given up on life already, like folk going round the supermarket in the PJs," posted one Facebook fashion critic to the company's page.

"They can do what they like. People can always choose to go elsewhere if they don't like it," wrote another in the Facebook group "We Are Edinburgh."

This isn't the first time a business has sparked outrage over their stringent dress codes. Last month, American Airlines elicited accusations of heavy-handedness for making a woman change her "Hail Satan" shirt. And The Post documented responses to some New York restaurants' fur ban while dressed in a Sable hat and scarf.

In my quest to find the perfect overlap of affordability and quality, I've tried a few different brands. I even tried picking up secondhand denim at consignment and thrift stores to save money; however, in my experience, I found that it's worth it to opt for unworn jeans because it greatly increases the amount of wear you get. (Denim jackets, on the other hand, are a great item to buy used.)
