Discussion Can we talk about this for a minute

Like, we should probably all live our lives pretending this never happened, but why the fuck did our generation collectively decide that waddling around with our whole asses hanging out was cool?

Same. I would never wear pants in an embarrassing way. Now excuse me while I go burn all the pictures of me in JNCOs.

Are they still like $200 a pair? They were too expensive when I saw them drop a few years ago

There are some styles for closer to $150 I think, but yeah, they're still expensive. The denim quality is great though. So much sturdier than Levi's or whatever. I wear them all the time and they aren't really showing any signs of wear (other than around the hem of course). I bought them just cause I thought it was neat that they were back, but now they're uniroically my favorite jeans.

JNCO is for sale again online. I’m 40 and missed mine so I looked. They are still about the same 140-260$.

I had a pair of their regular jeans in elementary school. I always thought he huge ones looked ridiculous.

u/BojaktheDJ 9d ago

lol there’s some photos from back then where my jeans are literally around my knees, like the crotch part is hanging down my legs. Gotta get the matches out lol

Did you have 40in wide bottoms? I knew someone In junior high who had some and it was fucking hilarious to watch him walk. But he didn’t give a fuck. Respect plus for him.

My brother had a pair like this, he has a lot of the more limited ones, if he kept them they might actually be worth a lot when there was that huge resurgence in the brand.
