is this real?

I think it is safe to say that there is not much in fashion that I am abhorrently against. However, I am drawing a line at fashion sweatpants. That phrase in itself is an oxymoron - meaning this trend should have been stopped at the idea process. I don't think I have ever seen them on a runway before Spring/Summer 2010, and it hurts me to see it.

I mean, is there really a point to wearing furs, leathers and sky high heels if your final piece is $1,000 pair of elastic waist band sweats?

What do you think about these pants? Are you willing to try them out or  do you share the same position as me?
