When do ripped jeans stop being fashionable?

    They never were. Fashion in general is just dumb.

    I never understood why deliberately weathering hats and clothes as well as making them faded or rip was ‘fashionable’. I think it is just a mockery on those that can’t afford overpriced clothing, so it’s like “here! we’re pandering to your demographic! it is cheap now!”. Then again even when “new” ripped jeans are being sold, it’s marked up too.

        So you defend what is otherwise marketable trash? Wow, so cool…

        How about you go and make rips and tears in every single pair of pants you have and see how you feel afterwards.

          Hitler was in charge of Germany in 1939, I stated a fact you wouldn’t accuse me of supporting nazis by stating a fact would you? So why are you saying I am defending the fashion industry for simply stating what a trend is?

          You don’t have to be a genius to see trends and what is fashionable. Stating facts that ripped jeans are in style doesn’t mean someone is defending it, just making observations. I am not fashionable, and I don’t care about trends, but it’s naive to ignore facts.
