Occasionally I will wear a pair of well-tailored wool trousers in order to look nice. Bizarre, I know.

I've got a couple of pairs of navy chino style trousers, and some linen trousers for the summer. Do you not find jeans too heavy and sweaty when it's hot?

Lizzard, you don't wear pyjamas in bed? Far more practical than a onesie when you need a wazz during the night...

I only recently discovered that not everyone sleeps naked.

Then I pull out the lime green board shorts. And no one wants to be seen with me in public.

queen bodecia, pyjamas are for lounging around the house in. They come off to go to bed!

I've got shorts as well, but for the man about town, the linen trousers and a white short sleeve shirt is much more dapper

Please share how you discovered this - an embarrassing moment when someone slips from the sheets to put on their M&S pyjamas?

feef, the only people who look good in short sleeved shirts are the blokes in Hawkshead catalogues. Everyone else just looks like an accountant or schoolboy, depending on age.

Unfortunately not. I wouldn't be able to sleep for giggles were that the case. Just your average pub discussion..

queen bodecia, I'm sure there is nothing wrong with them as long as you don't sleep in them. OliviaDB, you mean they don't? !!

At the risk of actually attempting to answer the OP's question... I wear Skins compression leggings as my baselayer for skiing and just leave them on under my jeans if it's cold. Better than merino as the compression aids muscle recovery for the next day.

Thank you!
(Does the compression actually make a difference? I wondered if it might be a sales thing rather than a real thing?)

Hard to say definitively as it must be 10 years since I skied without them so I don't have a comparison reference point anymore. I rarely get the leg stamina issues that I used to get though so maybe (but I also work out much harder in off-season and am a much better skier than I was then which also makes a difference). The manufacturers recommend sleeping in them too and I frequently do, particularly for the first few days when muscle aches are more likely to be an issue.

Scarpa, fur man fur, that's all they need to wrap themselves in . . . . but you get excited by a reptile in cling film
Raceplate, interesting, I may have some age related questions about that later

Scarpa, in front of the fire the PJs are just fine. In bed they're overkill!

Another vote for compression leggings from me. I run a few long distance cross country races and I really notice the difference in recovery speed if I use my compression tights post race. Couldn't tell you if it actually physically makes a difference or if it's just psychological but either way they help me recover quicker. They are also are great to wear under jeans when it's a bit parky...

Masque, you're the one who was all in favour of the man fur. How else is a girl to acquire it?

I always wear pyjamas in bed, they're warm and comfy and I don't like being unclothed. Enough already.
