    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.

      Remember when you used to get your shoe stuck in the ribbon of fabric that would detach in a loop from the bottom of a leg. For some reason it was always only one leg.

    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.

      Well these days we have the stretchy ones. Originally I disliked them, as not real jeans, butI started to like them as soon as I got fat.

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

      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.

        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.

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