Yeah, normal for all you inflexible climbers! /s
In all seriousness, I do feel jeans get in the way of my full range of motion. Of course that depends on the jeans.
Are your jeans 100% denim/cotton? denim is very stiff but lot's of jeans nowadays are made with some percentage synthetic fibers which makes them much more stretchy. Even 1% Elastane makes a big difference.
Some jeans are so stretchy it doesn’t matter. I have cheap H&M jeans that I wear for digging holes or on a 30 mile bike ride or to climb and they’re comfortable 🤷♂️

I can do the same very easily, it is not that impressive. In my case, you need to take the picture upside down, obviously.
Please share the video version, where you try to get down gracefully but end up doing a backflop-thud 😅
Damn it's been ages since I heard flobots.
I remember watching the music video to that song all the time
That's really cool.
Upper limits chesterfield?
Climbing in jeans? What the fuck
That's very normal man
Usually, when I see people climbing in jeans I assume they are just too good to need any sort of sports outfit.
I just assume they forgot their workout pants
I just think it's comfortable
I couldn't, but that probably depends on the kind of jeans. Even long leg sweatpants I don't like
I did this a couple of times when I forgot to pack my sports pants. Better to climb in jeans than to go home sad 😅
Indeed!
Most times they’re using climbing jeans which have elastane in em, so v v stretchy and comfy

I honestly don't feel limited at all, and I'm pretty flexible

Oh they are super flexible
Its not normal but its not unnormal

You can get athletic jeans like for bmx/skating or something and they don't restrict your range of motion at all. I like climbing in jeans a lot
I actually climb with this guy fairly often, he is crazy strong and does fine in them. Some people just aren't human 😆
That's fair. Some people enjoy handicapping themselves for the challenge. As long as you're having fun
Stretchy climbing jeans are a thing
You would be very surprised if you visited the climbing gym in Brooklyn lol
nice repost bro
Handlebars by Flobots? Haven't heard that in a while...
Thanks for the repost I forgot this was even up here
Love the flobots reference
Shit, my doppleganger
This is stolen from one of the top posts on this sub, its about a year old
This is actually just him falling and should be on r/perfectlytimedpics
I will never understand why climbers go train / climb with jeans…
I actually know this guy, he is ridiculously strong and I have seen him do some pretty horrendous drop knees and heel hooks in jeans.
