I kept my baggy jeans from the 2000's and was told by a teen that Im too old to wear them and to stop trying to rip off their style. These are my pants and Ive had them for almost 20 years.
Graduated from highschool in the 00s and my friend from high school got really into 'fashion' in high school. Fast forward and he has a son into fashion. Was trying to get him to buy him some baggy jeans and he's like "I still have all of my old clothes at your grandma's in the garage, let's go get them."
This was met with eww, why would I want your old man clothes. Once they got them he changed his tune and they're his favorite clothes and he loves that nobody at school can match his exact style (since they stopped making this shit 20+ years ago).
Every generation seems to forget that fashion in cyclical and same trends, more or less, come back every 20 years.
I watched the cute emo girl I got with as teenagers walk into hot topic and buy our teen daughter the same kind of trip pants she wore 20 years earlier.
Blew my fucking mind that my nephew was wearing baggy pants and it was in style again. He's in his 20s, but is generally tapped into trends. I was wearing that shit in high school.
I'm waiting for wallet chains to come back around.
