I don't like it. With that said, My son is pretty tall and slim, and I think jeans on him look best a bit relaxed and laying low on his hips.

He has a couple pair like that but the others are a little higher and he always has on a belt.

Seriously I can't read this whole thread. People are going to wear what people wear. I don't like the look of being able to see someones whole ass in their underwear with their pants down, but it is really funny when they are trying to walk up a set of stairs and keep their cool.

There is another thread about boot cut jeans not being in style. I am in trouble because the only kind I wear are but cuts and straight legs.

This thread reminds me of somebodies grandma telling them to GO GET A BELT!

I cannot think of another thing in the history of fashion that intentionally requires the constant struggle with gravity, save for a woman's strapless dress. And speaking for myself, I'd rather look at a woman's cleavage that some guy's butt crack.

I pray for the day for one of these idiots to start trouble or pick a fight with me. I'd probably die laughing watching him try to form a fighting stance with his pants around his thighs.
Pants are fashion accesories. If they weren't, there would not be so many styles, labels, colors, brands etc.

They may as well get real long big socks and walk around with an extra foot of material hanging off your toes....What does this style signify? To me the statement is - I am poor- uneducated...not very intelligent and I am proud of being stupid.
As many insults as you can ply to saggy pants, people have to the styles I listed. Being a teddy boy signified being poor and from the "bad" part of town in England.

LOL Yes, that's what you did - merely state your opinion for yourself.

There have been many fashion trends through out the ages that impeded breathing, movement, safety, etc. Saggy pants are the least of them, trust me.

Maybe you need to look up the definition for accessory. :A fashion accessory is an item which is used to contribute, in a secondary manner.

A hat, cufflinks, scarf, etc.. are all fashion accessories. Things like pants and shirts arent considered accessories.

Oh good lord. Usually I don't really care what others wear - although, if asked, I do have opinions about what is more or less flattering. This saggy pants trend is an exception, though. Every time I see it I think how totally idiotic it looks. It's also gross when some guys wear them so low that their entire butt is hanging out of their jeans. It's practically cringe-worthy to imagine sitting on a couch, bus seat, or restaurant booth where his skanky almost bare butt just was.

My mom (80s) did a hilarious, pee-your-pants funny imitation of my cousin who still wears his pants that way (in his 20s). This happened when he was a teen and the mere memory of that moment still sends us into paroxysms of laughter.
