When You Can Fit Your Head in the Leg...

This title may sound all sorts of weird and potentially kinky, but trust me, it's not. I just heard some rather... disturbing... news, and here is a hint.

Yes, JNCO jeans are making a comeback. You may be thinking to yourself "You aren't even from the 1990's... HOW DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THIS?!?!" Like any normal human that doesn't know about something, I googled it. I did know a bit about these jeans from seeing them in pictures such as the three above, but I never knew what they were even called. From my research, I learned that these jeans were popular among rave, hip hop, and goth culture, and that there are three styles:

1. Guys
2. Girls
3. Mammoth
1. The mammoth jeans, as well as the guys jeans, have leg holes so big, you can fit your head 100% in them.

 Of course, I still see my fair share of people (unfortunately) walking around in these jeans/fit of pants. It is rather fascinating how  in a span of 20-25 years, we went from loving these jeans, to being confused by them. As you all are probably thinking, I was one of the people that was confused, and had questions such as:

• Why would someone want to wear these? they don't flatter anyone.
• How were they made, did the designer just cut a trapezoid and cut a triangle from the base opposite of the waist 
• What was the purpose of the wide legs? Was it the "bigger is better" theory?
• Who within each of these crowds would wear these pants?
• What was the purpose of the enormous pockets? 

And lastly

• What caused a change of taste? We went from the wide jeans to skin-tight jeans. 

I am curious as to how today's teens will handle the potential comeback of these pants, and will the same groups be wearing them as they did in the 90's.
