I'd define skinny jeans as anything that has less than a 7" hem (and fit the entire leg with a similar amount of slack.) Anything under a 6" hem is probably too skinny.

Yes. Spare fabric makes me nervous. Too tight not good for dudes though.

I think skinny jeans are fine if the guys who wear them are actually skinny. Meaning its not skin tight on them like how some regular guys wear them and walk wierd because its so uncomfortable.

19cms were based off the original cure.

Skinny jeans are fine, as long as they don't cut off circulation to the package area/thighs/calves and don't make you walk funny.

There is a weight/height limit to skinny jeans, please do not attempt if you do not meet the criteria. If you have over a 32 (maybe including) inch waist, you should not be wearing skinny jeans. If you have a standard (not stackz) inseam of 30 inches or under, you should not be wearing skinny jeans
