Tight Clothing; Yes? or No?

Post Reply New Topic

I'd say I wear the tightest of clothes. Only basketball shorts, t-shirts, and sweartshirts!<sarcasm. sarcasm. sarcasm>

Depends on the clothing material and time of year. I can tolerate more tightness on my lower half than upper, but other than socks (so they'll stay up), I avoid tight things in the summer. In winter sometimes I'll put on black spandex thermal tights under my pants for an extra layer. I don't like tight fitting anything on my torso, nor can I stand being "bundled up" with gloves, scarf, et cetera even in January. I do have some ski masks I'll wear in lieu of scarves and if I need an extra layer up top, I'll pull my hood up over the ski mask or wear a "Heidi hat" over it. I'll keep my hands in my pockets rather than putting on gloves (which I don't own any outside of disposable medical/cleaning type).

For me anything that leaves indents builds up in bothering me. Socks, watches, rings. Also depends on how stressed I am. The more stressed the worse it is to the point that some nights I can't wear even much of any type of clothing to sleep in because it bothers me so much, no matter the temperature in the room.

Heeeeellllll nawwww. I hate tight clothing with a passion.

I am so picky about my clothing. Not just tight clothing. Although it's true that I hate tight clothes, I can't stand other things, like my ankles being exposed in a pair of pants, or my wrists exposed in a long sleeve shirt. I can't wear a shirt that's tight around the shoulders and arms, or around the chest either. The waist is okay though...

If I go longer than two days after shaving my legs, I can't wear pants and can't sleep at night. The prickles make me throw tantrums until I can go take care of them. I hate the feeling of harder fabrics on my legs, so cargo pants that are normally baggy are hard to wear. Socks are okay, but shoes aren't. I'd go everywhere barefoot if I could. I can't wear tennis shoes or sneakers most of the time, and prefer either boots or sandals if I have to wear anything.

Basically my wardrobe consists of one pair of jeans that I sort of wear, one pair of very soft stretchy dress pants, and very soft, loose shirts. It's a miracle that I even have clothing that I can stand. On some days I'll go through four or five different outfits until I find the one that doesn't make me irritated or make me freak out. My sensory processing is very bad when it comes to touch and feeling. I can't even sit with my shoulder against someone else's. It throws me into more tantrums.

Here in Seattle you see skin tight, ultra thin jeans on half the hipsters. Looks kinda confining to me; but hey, that's the style, along with facial hair and a 6 pack of IPA from QFC.

Tight clothing is okay when you have the body to pull it off, not so much when you don't. The style growing up where I was from was very baggy which I kept going way too long. I'm not into skin hugging anything but I got that stuff that fit and I think I look a lot better relative to before.

I need tight clothes. I feel uncomfortable if clothes are loose. I also can't sleep without a duvet pressing onto me.



Edit: Not tight clothes as in skin-hugging, but I need to be able to feel them!

If clothes are too tight I feel restricted, but that's a movement thing not a sensory thing.

I don't mind tight clothes, but I like loose clothes better. Especially gym shorts.

Occasionally I'll wear skinny jeans, but it really depends on the weather. If it's hot, then no. (And I get hot really easily.)
But if it's the dead of winter, then sure.
I also looove yoga pants, but I don't wear them that often. I should.

Tight shirts? No. Just no.

I don't like my clothes tight. I prefer things that are loose but I have issues when things are too long or too baggy as well. It's hard for me to find clothes I feel comfortable in.

I prefer loose fitting clothing. It hides parts of my body that I don't want people to notice. It makes me look androgynous.

I like loose clothing myself--but not too loose.

I hate tight-constricting anything!! !

I'm a short man. If I wear baggy clothes, I look awful.

Tight pants, baggy shirt, long socks and a sweater

I like tight pants and underwear, and my shirts have to be just right- the middle between tight and loose. My socks also have to be long and fairly tight.

I dislike tight clothing, feels like I'm being constricted.

For me it depends on the material.

Some materials feel good tight (and horrible when loose), other materials are the exact opposite.
