On behalf of all norwegian climbers, sorry for the tightness of the trousers on our representative at the BMC meet in Cornwall.
We tried giving him a suitable pair, but he insisted on wearing his little sisters trousers.

Climbing has a long and distinguished tradition of offensive trousers, so I doubt there is much to worry about.
Will the colours make peoples eyes bleed?

You just want to see vikings in tight trousers!
How do we know the post is for real?
Norway is full off Trolls. (I saw a documentary about Troll hunting in Norway. )

I saw that documentary too. I got the impression most of them didn't have internet access.

We should really get a UKC opinion piece up this: "from the lycra of the 80's to modern day hipsters: climbing trousers, how tight is too tight?".

Tried some of those ABK trousers on the other day.
The designers seemed to have forgotten to account for two important things.....
Testicles.

I'm not sure I'm ready for the imagery associated with the Skinny Jeans Group Test that we are (thankfully) not publishing...

You forget The Thing... all 'extraneous' body parts should get removed by the super keen to maximise performance.

You forgot the Bell-bottom jeans of the 70's. You couldn't see your bloody feet but you looked fab!
