It's pretty rare I was just curious. Typically I will run errands in sweat pants or whatever they are called these days
I just don't understand why people wouldn't dress at home. Why go around in pajamas, or equivalent, all day? Is this a European thing, where you dress super-casually at home, then change your clothes whenever you go out? Is life devolving to the point where everyone will wear nothing but underwear at home, and feel perfectly comfortable making a quick run to the store in the same state?

Just call me old-fashioned, I guess. I'm perfectly comfortable in jeans at home.

Ahhhhh. *light bulb moment*

The late spouse had a pair that were festooned with the prism logo from the cover of Pink Floyd's "Dark Side of the Moon".

Since the OP doesn't seem to know what a real leisure suit is:

Simple; because we dont have to. If i have no plans to go out then i'll throw on a pair of sweats and a tshirt maybe a pair of tennis shoes for me to take the dog out and go check the mail. However unless i have to go to the store or anyplace that has a "no shirt no shoes no service" policy im wearing comfy veg clothes around the house.

Because they're comfortable. If I'm not going anywhere, I'm in yoga pants at best.

Who cares what other people wear around their own home?

If I am going to Wmart it's evening and I need 1-2 things I may since I work from home.

Even when I do I try to make sure they are "decent"plaid pattern. I saw a few women shopping in them with bunnies and stuff on them.

Just curious
I don't feel particularly comfortable leaving the house in any kind of leisure wear or exercise gear. I'll do it just to go to the gym or yoga, but I don't like it.

Maybe I'm old-fashioned, but I don't like going out in public not being properly dressed- that is, "real" pants and a shirt.
