A person who loves power dressing at work may have a wardrobe full of suits, separates, statement accessories and other fashionable items that make them feel confident, but they also know for a fact that there's nothing more liberating than changing out of their pants after a long day at work.

Nothing beats the safety our homes offer, after all. It's a place where there's no one to judge us for what we are wearing. No wonder many people who live alone are secretly guilty of dropping their pants as soon as they stumble through their home's door. This no longer comes as a surprise, since people across the globe have a shared disgust toward having to wear uncomfortable trousers, especially at work.

Good thing, No Pants Day exists. Celebrated on the first Friday of May each year, this occasion aims to encourage everyone from around the world to ditch their pants, throw on their fluffiest robe and wear their comfiest pair of slippers so they can enjoy fresh air touching their bare skin.

History Of No Pants Day

The exact date of the day’s introduction in pop culture remains unknown, but it is believed to have taken place sometime around the late 90s. The day was initiated by a small band of college students in Austin, Texas. The dropping of pants publicly was a bold demonstration of their joy after their final semester ended.

Eventually, what started off as a college prank gained roaring nationwide popularity in 2000. Its fame cut across the national barriers and began to be observed in other countries including France, Sweden, Australia, Finland and Britain.
