Good morning! 
It’s Thursday, 21 January 2021 (W3/D21)
Today is:
For those working from home or in lockdown and isolation, it’s the perfect day. You get to wear what you’ve been wearing for the last year anyway, only today you can justify your sartorial choice.
Cooler weather (at least here in Joziburg) would be better to appreciate the comfort and warmth of a good pair of sweatpants, but don’t let the heat stop you from showing your love for the comfy clothing item that has its own day today. Besides, it’s not just about the sweatpants…
The first pair of sweatpants was introduced in the 1920s by Émile Camuset, the founder of Le Coq Sportif. The first sweatpants to be made were simple knitted gray jersey pants that allowed athletes to stretch and run comfortably.
International Sweatpants Day was created to show people that wearing sweatpants doesn’t necessarily have to be embarrassing—after all, why should anyone be embarrassed of being comfortable? Life is too short to be wearing uncomfortable clothing all the time.
International Sweatpants Day is not just about spending the day wearing sweatpants or something equally comfortable, although that is definitely part of the fun involved. International Sweatpants Day is also about giving yourself a break from the often stressful and rushed lives many of us live. Wearing sweatpants means we want to be good to ourselves for a change, put our own comfort before our worries of what other people think of of us. And that’s how we should spend this whole day: being good to ourselves, enjoying our lives without paying attention to what other people think about what we do, wear or say.
So, spoil yourself and have a comfy and carefree Thursday!
