The dress code for the Strongbow Legends Lounge at Tynecastle is smart casual, with no away colours allowed. This means guests are expected to dress in a manner that is neat and tidy, but not overly formal. While ties are optional, trainers and casual jeans are not permitted. Dress denims are permitted,

[William H. Bonney]

Thanks Dave.

They must have changed that recently as I've been in the lounge a couple of times with normal jeans on and no issue.

I'm sure they would be fine unless they had holes or similar in them.
