Jborosara Posted March 21, 2013 #26 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Personally, jeans do not belong on a cruise. This has been said many times, but lots of people look sloppy today. Save jeans for working in the yard. As long as the dress code says they are ok, they are ok regardless of what anyone else says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merriem Posted March 21, 2013 #27 Share Posted March 21, 2013 As long as the dress code says they are ok, they are ok regardless of what anyone else says. That is one reason we do not enjoy the large ships. People look like they are at Walmart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know what to say or how to respond to this.... Rude is never in fashion comes to mind. I wear jeans on a cruise and I assure you I look just fine.... But just for the record, exactly what is wrong with Walmart? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeaBag Posted March 21, 2013 #29 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Actually we were at Wallmart yesterday and the people were dressed very nicely. Maybe it was formal day, dunno......:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NLH Arizona Posted March 21, 2013 #31 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Personally, jeans do not belong on a cruise. This has been said many times, but lots of people look sloppy today. Save jeans for working in the yard. It is one's personal preference if they chose to wear jeans or not since it is allowed by the cruise line, but to call people that wear them sloppy - WOW! I've seen a lot of people looking better and more fashionable in jeans than those that are wearing other outfits on my cruises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merriem Posted March 21, 2013 #32 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Just IMHO...that is not rude. As a society I find that many, not all tend to look sloppy. You would think that on vacation people would want to look nice. I do not care for the formal attire either, no ball gowns or tuxes, but a good country club casual is a pleasant compromise.

We do dress to the nines on formal nights, but the others we will mostly be in jeans. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merriem Posted March 21, 2013 #35 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Don't worry, we won't see you. Did our last big ship in June, but we are in the same state. Why does this get people so upset, it is an opinion, and we all have them. So sorry that this caused you to be stressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PBPirate15 Posted March 21, 2013 #37 Share Posted March 21, 2013 i love to dress up especially on cruises.... Probably i overdress. But, dh is super casual. So tonight we argued over whether he can/should wear jeans in the mdr or specialty restaurants...i say his jeans (normal jeans, not dressy but not torn) are too casual. He says half the guys will be in jeans.... Thoughts? Also, does dh need a jacket or tie in specialty restaurants? Hope not.... As i can't seem to even get him out of jeans! At least i will be looking fab! Lol just see what you started lol jk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NLH Arizona Posted March 21, 2013 #38 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Don't worry, we won't see you. Did our last big ship in June, but we are in the same state. Why does this get people so upset, it is an opinion, and we all have them. So sorry that this caused you to be stressed. An opinion is "I really don't like jeans and don't think they are appropriate on a cruise", being rude and judgmental is saying people that wear jeans are sloppy (which is false) or inferring that all people who shop at Walmart are sloppy (which is not true). Well, I certainly hope you don't cruise on Crystal (a small ship), because I cruise with them as well. BTW, I never get stressed because of judgmental or rude people.

koolforkatz Posted March 21, 2013 #40 Share Posted March 21, 2013 The guys that do the tux thing?? if they really enjoy wearing those monkey suits, ???? Most of them are coerced by their better halfs and go to the cabin and change as soon as they can after dinner to get normal again.;) My husband does the "monkey suit" thing and I do not coerce him and he leaves it on all night. I have suggested he just bring a suit, but he loves wearing it and he looks great in it. We are "slobs" I guess, who wear nothing but jeans all year round since we both work at home. This is our chance to get dressed up and we both enjoy it. Each to their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for me a cruise is a vacation and I hate getting dressed up, so if I have to wear something 1/2 decent I go with dockers - I find them more comfy than jeans.' A very sensible response. People should really just mind their business, enjoy themselves, as dg wrote, this is a vacation. What others are wearing should not ruin the enjoyment of the cruise. If another wishes to wear jeans, and that makes them comfortable, that is entirely their business. I'm certainly more concerned with the slobs and rude cruisers, especially the one's whom are hogging(reserving) the pool lounge chairs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big_G Posted March 21, 2013 #43 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I wear jeans everywhere but on a cruise. The khakis are way more comfortable. By the way, I needed a good laugh today so thanks for starting this thread. Anyone that get's their underwear (sorry) in a bundle on these proper dress threads is just providing entertainment to the rest of us. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare uktog Posted March 21, 2013 #44 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I would love to wear my jeans anywhere - but after my lovely Celebrity cruise last month I cannot get them on, even if I go for my best ever muffin top look :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flames9 Posted March 21, 2013 #46 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Not sure why Anyone cares what others wear?? But I will wear a suit to keep my wife happy--keeping other cruisers happy is not my concern,lol Yes I am polite--I don't smoke at all, I'm not loud,lol--I simply mind my own business. As long as people are clean, don't stink of body odor, all is good!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CathyCruises Posted March 21, 2013 #49 Share Posted March 21, 2013 I just asked DH if he ever had, or would he ever, wear jeans at night on a cruise ship. Emphatic NO. He is wearing them now, wears them everyday at home, but does bring nice pressed khakis or slacks for non-formal nights, generally worn with a long sleeved shirt, and a dark suit and tie for formal nights. We also pack in 24" suitcases, one each, and our last cruise vacation extended to 6 weeks. So the excuse of, 'well, I don't want to pay extra baggage fees' is just nonsense IMO. If we can do it, anybody can do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
durberville Posted March 21, 2013 #50 Share Posted March 21, 2013 Haha! This thread is getting funny! Personally, I love seeing a man in a nice pair of jeans....and a man in a nice pair of jeans with a jacket? HAWT! *grins* My husband won't wear them on Caribbean vacations because he thinks they're too heavy and uncomfortable. He usually packs light coloured dress slacks or khakis. But for all you guys who do? Rock on with your bad selves! *winks* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
