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.

[–] Zenith@lemm.ee 18 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Idk my husband never changed, Levi’s always had these

[–] H4mi@lemm.ee 6 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

Same. 527 is my current choice. I’m wearing a pair right now.

[–] heleos@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

Gonna turn your 501s into 499s

[–] GroundedGator@lemmy.world 3 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)
[–] H4mi@lemm.ee 3 points 3 weeks ago

Those look awesome, thanks for the tip.

My all time fav are 503, but they have not been in production since the 2000’s. I held on to my limited collection of them until they were all in a state of disrepair. I’m still hoping for a revival of the model.

Wrangler relaxed fit boot cut

[–] Flocklesscrow@lemm.ee 5 points 3 weeks ago

This is the answer, right here.

Probably after we got tired of walking around with soaking ankles

[–] caseyweederman@lemmy.ca 18 points 3 weeks ago

And absolutely shredded cuffs.

[–] FrostyCaveman@lemm.ee 71 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Because they stopped making them!

They sucked though, the leg ends would always end up getting wet, muddy, and/or torn off

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I really liked this cut, and would like them to come back. I used safety pins to keep the ends off the ground.

[–] nightofmichelinstars@sopuli.xyz 28 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

So you hemmed them to a more typical pant leg length?

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago

No, just the back, so I didn't step on them.

[–] Olap@lemmy.world 31 points 3 weeks ago (2 children)

When the ends of our jeans looked all freyed and hemmed

[–] MudMan@fedia.io 6 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] EtherWhack@lemmy.world 8 points 3 weeks ago (6 children)

I just saw a high schooler wearing black ones when grabbing something to eat at the store.

What pants?

You wear pants?

[–] lightnsfw@reddthat.com 21 points 3 weeks ago

I wore a pair of jeans like that yesterday...

[–] frog_brawler@lemmy.world 20 points 3 weeks ago

I see nothing unique about this pair of jeans.

[–] Venus_Ziegenfalle@feddit.org 15 points 3 weeks ago

They've started wearing them again

[–] RacerX@lemm.ee 13 points 3 weeks ago

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

[–] BoxOfFeet@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

[–] finalarbiter@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 weeks ago

Try looking for a boot cut. It's similar, kind of baggy and the cuff is oversized to fit over boots (hence the name)

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 12 points 3 weeks ago

Who said I don't?

My leg length is right though..

[–] Zier@fedia.io 11 points 3 weeks ago

What up skaterboi?

[–] StrawberryPigtails 11 points 3 weeks ago

I got tired of the torn up cuffs and jean cuffs are uncomfortable to walk on when you don't have shoes on.

[–] FuckFascism@lemmy.world 10 points 3 weeks ago

Maybe because they were stepping on their own fucking pants.

[–] bricklove@midwest.social 9 points 3 weeks ago

We got tired of hiding our powerful haunches

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 9 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I really wish I could find comfortable jeans like that.

"Why does fashion" basically.

Could everyone stop pretending like you decide objectively what you wear.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 6 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

How is this different from regular ass jeans?

[–] hOrni@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

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.

Because they're not practical and they fell out of style

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 weeks ago

It's uncomfy

[–] scathliath@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 3 weeks ago

You could not do sick kicks easily in them boys, or climb trees, I destroyed many a pair with my thick ass thighs.

[–] dirtycrow@programming.dev 2 points 3 weeks ago

When I peed my pants in them in the 2nd grade. My parents got some for me in high school, but they were so tight I could not wear them.
