We've heard of leggings, Jeggings, MaJeggings, Jorts, JorJeggings, and Pajama Jeans, and now, ladies and gentleman, meet Jogg-Jeans. They're jeans you can jog in, because they're actually sweatpants designed to look like denim! How hideous incredibly clever. As Diesel puts it, "Jogg-Jeans are a unique fusion of of design and groundbreaking new fabrics that combine the iconic style and durability of denim with the relaxed attitude and comfort of jogging pants." This attitude and comfort comes at a price though: Jogg-Jeggings range from $195 to $290. (Did we mention they're not real jeans?)


But look at all the ways Jogg-Jeans can enhance your life:

• You'll need to worry about gaining a few pounds because the elastic waistband has a drawstring.
• You can hang around the house in your sweats all day yet still look pulled together in denim-esque when you greet the hot UPS guy.
• You can confuse people at the gym about why you haven't changed into athletic attire—ha ha! But you have!

OK. Before this gets further out of control we'd like to put a moratorium on an more jean hybrids and their ridiculous compound names. Please, for the love of fashion, let's just wear REAL JEANS this fall.
