The Gemara says B'feirush that it's Assur for men to wear pants.

WIY: Without being specific about the topic, I believe the Gemara is Niddah 13a. It says B'feirush that "Michnasayim" are Assur for a man to wear. See the Aruch Hashulchan (in Even Ha'ezer 21, I think,...

Sam2: your "mareh mekomos" for the prohibition of pants for men must be erroneous. Aruch Hashulchan ,Even Ho'ezer 21 does not have a S/K 13 and I quickly perused the gemoro in niddah 13A and 13B that...

Sam, there are people who wear boxer shorts because of that Gemara. The limud z'chus for those who don't is that being used to it from childhood, it doesn't have the effect described in the Gemara....

I wear regular pants on Shovu'os as this is the most comfortable way to be clad to get thru Shovu'os nite learning. Also the least likely to get stained should I accidentally drop some cheese cake.
