New trend in gym attire?

Over the past couple of weeks I have noticed that a number of people have been coming to the gym fully clothed. That isn't to say that I would expect them to come naked. No. I mean they are coming to the gym and training dressed in jeans, shirts and shoes.

I find it bizarre. Surely it makes sense to wear appropriate clothing both for comfort and practicality ... or maybe I'm missing something here? Maybe they think doing squats in tight jeans looks good. Yes, it is better that they train this way than not at all. Or is it? And we're not talking about newbies here either. I think it's stupid, but that's just my opinion and I'm in a bad mood.

Why do they do it?

Why?
 
LOL, my gym doesnt allow Jeans or shoes, thats stupid. Who'd want to train in jeans?
 
It’s seems to be a part of black and asian culture here in London. I don’t see many people in regular clothes in the gym but whenever I do there’s usually a little group of about 3 or 4 of them wearing their gangsta clothes, hoods up, big gold chains, all focusing around the bench doing dumb **** like half repping about 40kg while kissing their teeth

Obviously they’re too cool to shower so they never put in enough effort to sweat

I know what you mean. What is it about people like that and Benching.
 
None like that at my gym. We are nice and straight up at my gym, "hey mate you look like a clown" would probably be said.

Same here, if you show up in jeans they won't let you on the exercise floor, you have to either have your change of workout clothes or leave. They had some great drama over it with this little old lady who showed up in what she said were "not jeans, they're denim trousers!" Yeah... they made her go home and change.
 
I used to know a guy who came to the gym from work (he was a house framer) and he'd just leave on his t-shirt, jeans and workboots. LOL He was a pretty big dude though
 
I see it at my gym all the time. Can't see how it could possibly be comfortable, but to each his own I guess.
