Because they're not practical and they fell out of style

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 days ago

Maybe because they were stepping on their own fucking pants.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Cause they're ugly looking.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago

Better than emo femboy skinny jean crap

[–] [email protected] 21 points 2 days ago

I wore a pair of jeans like that yesterday...

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

When I peed my pants in them in the 2nd grade. My parents got some for me in high school, but they were so tight I could not wear them.

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Looks a lot like my wardrobe, even the Chucks. Can't quite find a cut like that anymore, but I love that wash. And, honestly, I like it when they get tattered by the heel.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Try looking for a boot cut. It's similar, kind of baggy and the cuff is oversized to fit over boots (hence the name)

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago

We got tired of hiding our powerful haunches

[–] [email protected] 13 points 2 days ago

The last time I bought jeans they still looked like this. Granted it was 2003, but still.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago

I see nothing unique about this pair of jeans.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

I got tired of the torn up cuffs and jean cuffs are uncomfortable to walk on when you don't have shoes on.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

Dudes were tired of only ladies getting yeast infections and demanded some tight ass pants.

[–] [email protected] 29 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This isn't what jeans look like anymore? Help me out

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I just saw a high schooler wearing black ones when grabbing something to eat at the store.

[–] [email protected] -2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So what? We’ve had black jeans in this world for a long time. It’s not a new thing seeing people wear them

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Meme:

why did boys stop wearing jeans like this??

My answer:

I just saw a high schooler wearing black ones when grabbing something to eat at the store.

(I.E. They are still wearing them, and in different colors)

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Oh I see. I took OPs message as the style of jeans I.e. washed blue jeans that have baggy long legs.

Seems like most kids still wear jeans today but the style is way different. From what I have seen they like skin tight jeans, washed or unwashed. To me that would be widely uncomfortable but to each their own I guess.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Baggier pants seem to be coming back in style. Skin-tight was more of a millennial preference

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It might be by locale. I live a couple blocks from a high school and I'm seeing the opposite. Kids are wearing baggier and baggier jeans, some even near JNCO style.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Yep, skinny is for old folks now. Kids are dressing like it's the late 90s.

Because they stopped making them!

They sucked though, the leg ends would always end up getting wet, muddy, and/or torn off

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I really liked this cut, and would like them to come back. I used safety pins to keep the ends off the ground.

[–] [email protected] 28 points 2 days ago (1 children)

So you hemmed them to a more typical pant leg length?

[–] [email protected] 8 points 2 days ago

No, just the back, so I didn't step on them.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

What up skaterboi?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

How is this different from regular ass jeans?

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago (1 children)

These were the most regular in the 2010s. They are a bin narrower in the knees, and looser at the bottom. People liked to wear them longer, so that they wrinkled at the bottom.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Basically just a boot cut at the wrong length for your legs. They look better and are more comfortable when you get the correct size.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

"Why does fashion" basically.

Could everyone stop pretending like you decide objectively what you wear.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

You could not do sick kicks easily in them boys, or climb trees, I destroyed many a pair with my thick ass thighs.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

It's uncomfy
