Go-to-hell pants are a type of slacks that have garish colors or patterns.
The trousers have a classic cut.[1] They are worn as casual dress, but typically the only outlandish piece in an outfit.[1] Lime green is a popular color, but other colors are common.[1] Patterns or embroidered figures are common as well, as long as they are not too transgressive.[1]
The term dates to the 1910s and refers to fashion disregarding norms of good taste.[2] The pants became very popular among east-coast elites in the 1950s.[3] They came back into fashion in 2021.[4]
