#nojeans makes life more interesting, you’ve got to explore more options instead of the bland lazy one
Here are some options in order of formality –
Thai fisherman pants
Workman’s trousers like Snickers and stuff
Heavy woollen trousers (as opposed to woollen slacks, which are suit-level formal)
Linen trousers
Slacks
Beware, this sounds like a correlation fallacy. Correlation does not imply causation.
I agree that there are better choices than blue jeans, though.
/edit/ fixed typo
