I wonder if they're just bowing to the inevitable decline in the availability of khaki pants (for women, at least). I found exactly 1 pair at my store. Found another pair at Old Navy, but am not willing to spend much more than they charge for khaki pants because it's just not worn anymore. Used to be you could wear khaki pants with other outfits, now you just...obviously look like you work for Target, no matter what you wear on top.

Or you work in an office, though offices are getting away from it at least in my neck of the woods anyways.. Dark neat jeans are quickly replacing them.

I do work in an office, and I can't remember the last time I saw a woman in khaki pants. The closest are light brown jeggings/skinny jeans with boots.

Universal Thread...sounds like a name the SBux drinkin' soccer moms will be drawn to.

 

[IWishIKnew]

Well, that is their primary target demographic, so...

The pun runs in their marketing department must be epic.

Denim should be allowed year round as well as shorts for backroom members

Well you have to occasionally come out to the floor just like the rest of us who work primarily off stage

We try to avoid that. But my issue is that it's easily 10+ degrees hotter in the backroom

Target has been red and khaki since before I was born. When I was in jeans in December I easily got asked more often "do you work here" than when I was wearing khakis.

I'm at a solid color pants with khakis preferred store so a lot of people don't wear khakis year round.

I should get to wear shorts, because it is 30 degrees high on the wave near the ceiling...

I'll always remember our contractors coming in in Jeans, and 20 minutes in on their Scissor Lift, hollaring over to me on the Wave up in the air..

"How the hell do you deal with this", while wiping sweat in their eyes and thinking that this "Is gonna be a long wet, 7 weeks".

I wish I could wear jeans to work! Too bad TPS's are explicitly exempt from the ability to wear jeans.

 

[Interface23]

Didn’t see anything saying we could wear denim in February at my store. Sad...

 

[Kartman]

Just wear it, then tell them that you read here that it was now allowed.

Bam. Problem solved.

Living near a major metro area i can say the TPS wear jeans more than the ones at the store I'm at.

Give them time. It's for all stores.

I think only PMT is specifically mentioned.

 

[SmilesWI]

Can we wear jeans if we work overnight completely during closed hours? I’m working an overnight shift for a one time project and it might be kind of messy so I was hoping to wear jeans

Not everyone's.....
