Because they stopped making them and you couldn't find them and skinny jeans were the in-thing.
I fucking hated it. I suddenly had to change my style whether I liked it or not.

Probably after we got tired of walking around with soaking ankles
And absolutely shredded cuffs.
Because they stopped making them!
They sucked though, the leg ends would always end up getting wet, muddy, and/or torn off
I really liked this cut, and would like them to come back. I used safety pins to keep the ends off the ground.
So you hemmed them to a more typical pant leg length?
No, just the back, so I didn't step on them.
When the ends of our jeans looked all freyed and hemmed
Dusty, too. Washed jeans went from white to blue, unwashed from blue to brown.

This isn't what jeans look like anymore? Help me out
I just saw a high schooler wearing black ones when grabbing something to eat at the store.
So what? We’ve had black jeans in this world for a long time. It’s not a new thing seeing people wear them
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)

Whet pants
What pants?
You wear pants?
I wore a pair of jeans like that yesterday...
I see nothing unique about this pair of jeans.
They've started wearing them again
Because we became MEN
(This image was brought to you by ChatGPT)
And downvoted like all AI slop should be
I even downvoted it myself when I saw it again
Weird 4:3 looking motherfucker
Everyone hates your slop
Negative 86 at the time of this recording. That's a new PB.
- I wanna get those 3 digits
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.

The last time I bought jeans they still looked like this. Granted it was 2003, but still.
Who said I don't?
My leg length is right though..
Cause they're ugly looking.
Better than emo femboy skinny jean crap
I got tired of the torn up cuffs and jean cuffs are uncomfortable to walk on when you don't have shoes on.
What up skaterboi?
Maybe because they were stepping on their own fucking pants.
"Why does fashion" basically.
Could everyone stop pretending like you decide objectively what you wear.
We got tired of hiding our powerful haunches
Because they're not practical and they fell out of style
How is this different from regular ass jeans?
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.

It's uncomfy
Dudes were tired of only ladies getting yeast infections and demanded some tight ass pants.
You could not do sick kicks easily in them boys, or climb trees, I destroyed many a pair with my thick ass thighs.
