Should students wear sweatpants?-YES

High school is tough enough as it is. Having to wake up early in the morning, worrying about grades and homework and getting to the bus on time, there’s little time to think about what to wear. And that bring us to the topic of sweatpants
Sometime people are just plain tired to pick out a nice to wear, and sweatpants give a nice sporty yet relaxed look. And they are very comfortable.Some people may say it looks tacky and not adult-like but we aren’t adults, we are teenage students that came to learn. Not earn a salary. Plus, i believe that in school you should be as comfortable as possible to  make it  easier for you to learn. I mean seriously, who wants to be in skinny jeans  on monday  when you have some nice comfortable sweatpants that don’t require you to jump around in your room to put them on.
On the issue of short shorts, I agree with Chloe. There really isnt a need for you to wear something that practically shows your butt. None of us came to school to see that. Short are fine, especially when it a hot spring day. Just make sure they aren’t  too short.
Another thing is, sweatpants save time. Say you’re in a sport, and you don’t have time to change. Look! All I need to change is my shirt. Time saved. Or say you’re in p.e., and you running late you don’t even have to go into the locker room, you’re already in sweats
Sweatpants, personally are one of the most comfortable piece of clothing I have and will wear. And in school, as uncomfortable as it is, we should be able to wear clothing that makes us more comfortable in a not so comfortable environment.
