Ugly.

Oh, wait, that wasn't what you are going for. They're overalls.

No one above age 8 wears them.


Not according to Target. They are currently hanging in the women’s denim section (at least at the Rockville store). Recently, my 11 yr old DD’s best friend got a pair. Apparently they are making a comeback. I’m almost 50 and they were popular for girls when I was a teen/tween.

Put your son in that and watch him get beat up. Let it go - no one wears them and I’m not sure where this obsession is coming from.


Adult women wear more fitted denim overalls a lot now. Well, the stylish ones anyhow.

Seriously? You know that big area between the east and west coasts? Lots of farms.

Nope.

Only if they are shorty shorts, fun colors/fancy detailing and being worn by teen girls.

In the US they are called overalls, or sometimes coveralls (but usually coveralls have a front zipper and sleeves.


Those are called rompers:

If you call an Osh Kosh store and ask if they have overalls, they will understand what you are talking about. I loved those for my daughter when she was little.

I live near an art school and see a lot of overalls on college students.

Profitable? No. But yes, of course there are farmers.
