Red Jeans. 

A jawn with primarily nautical roots has found a recent rise in popularity, to the point of coverage by NPR (I would like to link to the clip, but it is, regrettably, unfindable). With the Wall St. of the past fading, and the traditional business attire along with it, professionals are searching for the middle-ground between a suit and and upscale business casual.

As the East Village goes, so goes the nation. Loathe the hipsters if you prefer, but understand that you will look like they do now in a few years. The trend-setters brought the nautical prep look to the forefront, red jeans and all. Enjoy looking at them. Wear them if you must.
