Origin: A portmanteau of sweats and jeans.

Sweans are an invention of the fashion industry in the 21st century originally designed as a hip substitute for "Mom Jeans". They offer the comfort of sweats without the "give up on life" attitude. Due to their tight fitting nature, sweans are not regarded as pants in some parts of the world. Not to be confused with swean.

Swansea, Massachusetts 

Swansea is an old New England town that was burned by the Indians in 1675 but unfortunately rebuilt and still exists. Most of it seems to be located right on a major highway with lots of shitty stores and restaurants. The people of Swansea consider themselves affluent and smart but that's only because Swansea is next to the even shitty cities of Fall River and New Bedford. The town will frequently say that it's located right on the water but will neglect to say that water is the Taunton River which is polluted as hell. Swansea does have a nice town hall and library and a shitty school called Joseph Case High School that gave the town national headlines a few years ago when every girl in the school decided the only way they could get attention and get guys to like them is by passing out lots of really nasty porn and nudes of themselves. The slutty girls and stupid guys were yelled at and possible spanked by their mommy and daddies but nothing really happened and things are still the same.
The Indians had the right idea when they burned Swansea, Massachusetts, too bad they had to go and rebuild it.
