While a big yes to designers challenging the traditional idea of "masculine" fashion, but what's up with those ballooned barrel trousers and chunky sneakers! Each year has some fresh trends that push boundaries but not every trend deserves a comeback. As we stride ahead in 2025, it's time to empty out some trashy clothes and pieces of clothes that were a serious misstep.
Here are 5 men's fashion trends from 2024 we're happy to say goodbye to:

Skants Or Skirts And Pants
While the combination of skirts and pants together is a great conversation starter and intends to break the stereotype that 'men can't wear skirt'. Frankly, the look misses the balance between avant-garde, punk/ grunge vibe and wearability. It gives the vibe that men can't make a decision whether to wear a skirt or pair of jeans. And this hybrid innovation just ends up looking confusing although experimental. What is it then rebellion or confusion?
Barrel Jeans
The exaggerated volume and tapered ankle tried to offer a fresh silhouette but often ended up swallowing the wearer whole. Doesn't flatter and looks awkward. And how do you style it?

Chunky Sneakers
I love a good pair of funky sneakers really, b..but the oversized sneaker trend could not convince me bigger is better. In 2025, they have no space. Sorry, bye!

Please, please don't ever comeback although a bold choice - unless you're time travelling in the 90s or have raided a biker gang's wardrobe, don't bring it back.
