We're having a debate in chat if you can A: Pole Dance and B: Do the splits in form-fitting leather pants.
Yes/No?
-also debating the merits of leather pants made for, say, a specific person dancing vs. off the rack leather pants.

-Happy St. Patrick's Day Everyone! Don't get pinched!

......I don't think you could do the splits while pole dancing in leather. At least, new leather. But if there were streached out old leather pants, they wouldn't be form fitting.

Do they pinch in New Zealand?

......Oh yeah. Hawaiian chapter is up for friends to read. I may go back a tweak it.

**boggles** I have to admit that my brain translated "Do they pinch in New Zealand?" as "do leather pants pinch in New Zealand, and why wouldn't they? Maybe it's sort of like that thing about toilet-water going down the drain counter-clockwise... no, that's silly.... but..." Nnngh.....

Heh. I see how you read it that way. XD

Oh. Good. I wasn't the only one....

...oh, you are such love. ♥

But like Ytak said...disappointedly enough, if they were old, worn, stretched out leather pants, they'd be non-form-fitting.

...but then again, Kaito has magic, so wtf? Why do is have to make sense for him? X3!

**forcibly drags mind away from mental images**

Well... there's form-fitting and there's form-fitting. One thing you learn from the SCA is that Cut-Outs In Leather Make It More Flexible. Soooo, if you put LOTS of strategically-placed holes in the leather pants (shaped like whatever suits your fancy), even the tightest pants would flex a hell of a lot more.

And there's different types of leather, too. Icka? You might want to check on this, but I've been told that kangaroo-leather is WAY flexible and stretchy. Dunno for sure, though. For flexible-but-clingy, I'd personally go with doeskin.

**contemplates black-dyed doeskin pants**

**goes for a swim in the gutter**

...oh, and NOW I'm supposed to go back to WORK? Riiiiiiiiight.....

*GRINS and refuses to fish Ysabet's mind outta the gutter*

There are definitely some types of leather that give/stretch a lot; I spent a summer learning to tool leather from a leather-worker (aaaand my brain just fritzed on the correct title). I'm simply not sure if they'd give Enough...

**refuses to contemplate just exactly what 'enough' implies**

'Pinking' is what they call 'cutting little holes in leather to form decorative designs' and it definitely helps with the give; but until some kindly male pole-dancer out there decides to demonstrate for us, I guess we'll have to rely on our imaginations... and the descriptions that you and Icka write for us (hint, hint, hint).

You know, you could get an AWFUL sunburn if you wore pinked leather pants out onto a beach... owieeeeee... patterns.......

.... Y'know, I think he's just gonna wear silk drawstring pants...

[ysabet.livejournal.com]

**mopes** Damn. And I had this mental image of nice, snug black doeskin pants with little moons and stars pinked alllllll over 'em... and laced-up boots, also doeskin. Okay, must stop fantasizing. **fans self**

[ickaimp.livejournal.com]

You can still keep fantasizing!!!

It's just that if Kaito's gonna be doing something acrobatic, probably looser drawstring pants would be better.
-He'll wear the leather at a later date.... or earlier... Dunno. Ask Koizumi, she's the one running this.
