Type of clothing:
When it was popular:
Description: As I remember, over-alls came back into style. In the early 1990's (approx. 1990 -1991 - I think) Teens wore their overalls in two ways: They wore their overalls with a belt, and let the 'front flap' and 'back straps' hang straight down. The other way, was to only hook together one side of the overal straps, and leave the opposite side open. I remember that this was popular when I was in was in the 6th grade. The popular over-all styles were: light blue; or gray stone-washed; overalls, with lots of zippers and metal buttons down the sides.

Well, in my country pre-teen girls wore overalls in colours such as orange, yellow and red in 3-6th grade in the late 90s. Along with fishermen hats, they were considred as trendy. i hope that we'll see young girls in these pretty soon!

I remember in middle school it was against the dress code to wear overalls with just one strap. Something about gang affiliations... People used to sag their overalls, too, but I dont remember how they did it.

I was pretty young when these were popular and I remember I thought they were great but they were a pain in the butt when it was time to go to the bathroom because I wasn't always strong enuff to get some of those stubborn buckles undone. also, I tried to wear it with one strap and my mom would also re hook me thinking that it was an accident lol.

Overalls were cool & sexy in the 90's and they are still sexy today. Overalls and shortalls look so HOT on women! They are comfortable, fun to wear, sexy, and have a youthful/playful quality about them. Overalls are great for casual wear and are handy for work and play. They are unisexual and thus can be worn by both men & women! Honestly overalls are the most amazingly hot clothes you can wear and they are strong and last for years (in some families overalls are handed down form father-to-son or mother-to- daughter). Overalls are great because they are diffrent from the countless pairs of plain old regular jeans everyone else wears. The bib and straps can be covered with a sweater or t-shirt if you want to go for the "just-jeans-look." Overalls are great because they can be worn so many diffrent ways! I don't even own a pair of plain jeans just overalls, if I want to appear to be wearing jeans I simply throw a shirt over my bib. I LOVE overalls and am not at all shy about wearing them wearever and whenever I want. I think that their should be web sites devoted to overalls and people who love overalls and shortalls! Wear your overalls proudly!

I like to wear overalls but I hate the new style buckles. I started a "Wear Overalls To Work Day" at my job, I think others should try this. I also want to make a blog of movie stars and famous people in overalls for both men and women to enjoy.

I think alot of the people who bad-mouth overalls really like them and just dont have the guts to wear them, in fact they probably wear overalls in secret. Dont let others make you afraid to wear your overalls, wear them if you want.

Lol, I hade three pairs... One was like denim and they came up right above the knee, and they had small baby pink flowers (ahhh, oshkoshbgosh, thanks alot) and then I had purple courderoy ones that went all the way to my ankles, and then there was a sparkly black one with light pink and magenta bows all over them... I miss the clothed from the 90's. That decade had cute sophisticated stuff. Nowadays, every teen walks around like a huge billboard sporting gigantic abercrombie and hollister labels. LOL, we're like paying them atrocious prices to advertise THEM.

I absolutely LOVE overalls. I used to have a bunch of pairs in the 90s too, but sadly enough I only have 1 pair left. I really wish they would make a cum back too. I wish i had a different pair for every day of the week. They make me so horny and i think they are supersexy. I don't know-maybe i like bondage or something. Yes, I am female and i am petite and hot and nothing gets me off more than wearing my only pair of overalls. They are really tight and the sensation of wearing them keeps me wet all day. I love how the bib stretches over my boobs and just slightly reveals my cleavage. I love how tight they feel on my little belly. Girls who don't like them have no idea what they are missing. Overalls are like a no -hands sex toy ( and not much mess either). I cum in them every time. My husband looks superhot in them too. I luv giving him a BJ while he's wearing his overalls and i'm wearing mine. :D

Overalls, coveralls or bib and brace dungarees as they are called in England are some of the most comfortable clothes you can wear. The straps over your back are very supporting for hard manual work. I live in the country and wear them for all sorts of things, farmwork, walking the dog or just messing around the house and garden. The bib over my chest and the shoulder straps make me feel very horny!!!??? and hard down there!?!? Like another writer wrote they are a bit like no hands bondage. Great fun hey!!!

Not sure what you ,think about overalls, but I ,wear overalls, in fact I ,wear overalls, all the time. Overalls are cumfortable and they look good which is important. Jeans are dull but when I ,wear overalls, I stand out from all the other people who dress the same. So the moral of my story is that I will ,always wear overalls, and to anyone who likes overalls and wants to ,wear them, I would say they should ,go for it, because you are your own person.

Liberty brand overalls I think are the best fitting and give the best feeling. I wore a new pair once with the girlfriend on a date out of town. She kept messing around at times during the morning. She made me mess them up a few times. Later on in the afternoon still out ad about she started messing around with me again when we were sitting on a bench at the fair. I ended up cum in my bibs for the 5th time for the day but while doing in it made me wet and mess in them cause the combination of my bibs feeling good and what she did to me topped it off. I had to clean up in the porta potty and remove my underwear and wear the bibs the rest of the evening. I like the way bibs feel. She does too. She had on hers at the same time. She was not clean down there either. She bought me another pair for the next day. Buy a pair of Liberty overalls and wear them proudly.

I'm 5'1", and my overalls are really, REALLY baggy on me, they're an XL, so they are really roomy, and actually totally cover my feet! The hems are really worn and frayed though, they drag on the ground when I walk, I can't help it! After a while though, i noticed that people were checking me out, my friend said that's because I looked like a really hot teenager, the oversized and too big overalls, along with my hair in pigtails :) made me look young, and that turned me on! So yeah, I love my too big, baggy old navy overalls with the ripped, dirty and worn hems!

I also still wear the same pair I wore in college. My boyfriend got me a pair from Old Navy. He for some reason bought me an XL, when I would normally take a M or L. Well, even though they're HUGE on me (and even looser now that I've lost 14lbs😀) I've fallen in love with them! Yes, I'm always readjusting my straps when they slide off my shoulders, yes my hems are so frayed from me walking on them cause they're super long, yes you can see down inside them by my waist because of how baggy they are, but nothing has ever been as comfy on me as these. I also used to wear a pair from the Gap. Those were a L, and those were pretty big and baggy on me also. I also would have the hems dragging under my shoes on those. Most of my jeans are like that, wicked long.

I still wear my old pair from the Gap. Like the ones above me the legs on mine are super long, so I'm always stepping on my hems when they drag on the ground. And they are sooo baggy on me, i like to wear without a top sometime, just gotta be careful that my breasts don't spill out of the bib and give all of the men a show!

Back in the late 1990s, several of my classmates frequently wore overalls to school. However, they always wore them with only one strap fastened. I always found that strange. For some reason, the sight of seeing another person wearing unfastened overalls, seemed to really excite me. I always wondered what they would do with the extra strap? Would they leave the unfastened overall strap hanging behind their back or would they try to hide it? Some kids would tuck the undone strap inside of their overalls. I could see how this would get rid of the extra strap. It wouldn't be flopping around behind the person's back. However, it might feel very uncomfortable if the buckle at the end of the strap ends up behind their butt, when they sit down. Other kids would just let the undone strap dangle loosely behind their back. However, this way, either the buckle at the end of the strap, or the adjustment slider, might get caught on something, like a hook or a door handle. Or the buckle at the end of the swinging strap might hit someone or something if the person wearing the overalls was running. One year, I asked for a few pairs of overalls for Christmas. I did end up getting overalls and I was confident enough to wear them to school. Some of my friends gave me a hard time, because I wanted to wear my overalls with both straps fastened. Maybe that wasn't popular? I don't know. I ignored them. They were MY overalls and I was going to wear them how I wanted to wear them.
