Without more info, I would technically say that no one is wrong here but the rule is stupid. You’re the best judge of your hiking ability so if you like to hike in jeans and know you can do it, go for it. I personally don’t like to hike in jeans, they’re usually too hot and heavy for me but I don’t care what others are wearing. Now, you mentioned it was a club and more formal clubs usually have rules and might have a dress code for one reason or another. The rules might not make sense to you but if you want to be in the club, you need to follow the club’s rules. To take it further, is there a written list of rules that everyone must abide by or is it just a verbal understanding of the rules? If it’s written down and you agreed to the rules to join, then it’s on you for not following the rules. If it’s just a verbal arbitrary agreement on what the rules are then it’s on the club for not spelling it out in the beginning.
