Hiking in Jeans? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm in this hiking club and they were adamant about not hiking in jeans.

Now I know they're not the best pants but I said it should be fine to wear them on short hikes and it wouldn't kill you but there are better things to wear. They added in further they will kick individuals out for wearing jeans.

Now I personally have done many hikes, even longer hikes wearing jeans with no issues. I want to know your thoughts below on this topic. Am I in the wrong here?

Jeans on a walk outside? Your body, your choice. Dress how you’d like. What I am more curious about is what made them so anal about this rule? Did some guy show up in all denim and almost die of heatstroke. Or are they just controlling people? Kindof intense for somebody else’s pants, especially if the hikes are mild.
