I’m in this hiking club and they were adamant about not hiking in jeans.

Now I know they’re not the best pants but I said it should be fine to wear them on short hikes and it wouldn’t kill you but there are better things to wear. They added in further they will kick individuals out for wearing jeans.

Now I personally have done many hikes, even longer hikes wearing jeans with no issues. I want to know your thoughts below on this topic. Am I in the wrong here?

    If you’re into hiking you get hiking pants that are made for it. You can tell the difference and they are absolutely worth the sticker price for the good ones but idk for someone just getting into hiking jeans seem better than the other pants they are likely to have (sweat pants, PJs, etc.)
