When do ripped jeans stop being fashionable?
When rich people stop trying to pretend that poverty is cool and that they are relatable.
Its a weird oroboros.
Poor people wear ripped jeans because fashion has made jeans expensive.
Rich people like the urban look of ripped jeans because their jeans aren’t ripped and they want to look relatable.
Fashion companies make ripped jeans for rich people to mimic poor people wearing ripped jeans because they have to.
Everybody has ripped jeans unless you are lame and can afford to not have ripped jeans.
So there is like an income bell curve of ripped jeans.
When who ever is wearing them doesn’t look cool. And a lot of looking cool is giving zero fucks about other people’s opinion of ripped jeans.
Where’s the rip at?
Personally, I’m of the opinion that they aren’t fashionable if they are ripped to be fashionable.
Ripped jeans are supposed to be the pants that you wore until they started to come apart, and you’re supposed to be wearing them because they are comfortable, not for looks.
The 90’s as I recall
The 90s is back and has brought them back, but like extra. I saw someone walking around where literally their entire leg from thigh to calf was exposed. Looked really uncomfortable tbh.
