We're these gentlemen turned away? I don't think Africans invented pajamas. What are they going to claim next, cowboy boots?

A new bar in Jersey City, N.J., is already racking up a bad reputation — for displaying a dress code that was interpreted as “racist.”
The Ashford is a highly anticipated addition to the up-and-coming area, but its debut seems to have fallen flat during the first week, based on some reviews. And although a number of people have posted some semi-flattering comments about the food and interior of the speakeasy-style eatery, others couldn’t get past a sign that was posted outside its front door.
“Confused with the dress code,” a Yelp reviewer named Sam K. wrote. “My blonde female friend was allowed in with loose sweat pants but for some reason the other guys in our group (who happened to be black and wearing normal looking pants or at least we thought they were), were not allowed in and told by the bouncer they do not let people in pajamas in.”
Sam went on to write that the official dress code wasn’t hung outside the restaurant until after their visit, and that only stirred up more confusion, as it stated “No gym sneakers” even though some white men within the group had been granted entry wearing just that.

Pants up
Don’t Loot
Black Lies Matter
I’m thinking they are trying to avoid a certain clientele by having a dress code.
Now they could get sued over alleged racial discrimination, and could end up out of business.
“Letterman Sweaters ONLY”
They have a dress code, they have to consistently enforce it across everyone.
They can have one and more power to them, but it has to be applied across everyone.
Girls in pajamas are always welcome.
This guy doesn’t get it.
Idiot.
Blondes’ in PJ’s WERE ALWAYS WELCOME in every bar I was in.
This happened in New Jersey?
up-and-coming area = shiathole
Dress codes apply to men, why do men complain about this?
The place is HELPING YOU OUT FOOL
Follow the dress code
No droopy poopy pants be racist, Yo!
“This happened in New Jersey?”
Why is that surprise?
As if that cesspool had any standards to start with.....
I was at a place Saturday for the first time, quite upscale. I noticed a dress code sign. Immediately thought “well, they’re trying to keep out the rapper / hanger on element.”
Its actually helping these fools out
If they come dressed nicely, the women will go here as well
Guys don’t understand this are idiots
“Now they could get sued over alleged racial discrimination, and could end up out of business.”
Or let them in... and go out of business.
If they come dressed nicely, the women will go here as well

But will the hoes stay away if there’s a strict dress code? /s
If patrons can prove it the bar is in trouble.
I'd like to see full body photos of people standing next to the sign to see if they meet the criteria.
As noted before, the girls are always welcome in their pajamas. Pretty much worldwide.
The guys wearing droopy crap? Ixnay. Pretty much worldwide.
Bars want to have the girls visit, because where the girls are, the guys will follow. So I’m sure they are more lenient with dress codes for the females.
How many men want to go to a bar with an all male clientele?
