So, why do you think that there is so much controversy about athletic/athleisure clothes? It seems to be a raw nerve with some people, but most of what I get is just vague reactionary complaining that “they are not appropriate” or “I don’t want to see them”. I can appreciate that some people think that they look ugly, but lots of clothes are unpopular without discussions of banning them - such as corduroy suits, crocs, Hawaiian shirts, etc. It seems like obvious advice that if you find a person’s clothing distasteful, simply don’t look at it, and the problem is solved. I get very skeptical when people go into “fashion police” mode.
I am a complete sucker for these sorts of clothes, so I don’t relate. But even clothes I don’t like I tend to not be so bothered as to complain or campaign against them.
