Is the re-emergence of JNCO jeans the dawn of the apocalypse? #45

I really wanted a pair back in 2001, but my mom wouldn't buy me any.

khandelwal commented 9 years ago

You needed your mom to buy you clothes in 2001? In 2001 I was a junior in college: failing classes, trying not to starve. Kids these days go to college with credit cards. I only had cash back then. I hear there are digital currencies now, I do not know what that means. I think it's like free money. I do not have any. I am stuck working this job.

Anyway, I do not know what JNCO jeans are.

But, girl - I know you bought some last week. Attach a picture here, and I will definitely have something to say.

Now that a particular brand of denim becomes a "thing" in every generation since we moved past the basic Levis/Lee/Wrangler options, I don't think JNCO's are any particular "horseman."

Quick, somebody check what brand of jeans @vz3 is wearing.

If you wanted them in 2001 and not 1995, then you're probably lucky your mom didn't buy them for you anyway.

Listen, y'all. I am from Mississippi. We are always a little slow on the trends there.
