Can grunge be stylish again? At least it was comfortable.
Just be a lesbian, you can grunge all you like and it never goes out of style.
Yeah, but I just like cock too much.
Transbians have entered the chat
(I'm just shitposting, fuck who you wanna fuck, in case it needs to be said)
The whole athleisure thing of the last 10-15 years has been great for dressing comfortably everywhere.
Grunge was never stylish. That was the point.
I just want Jnco’s that aren’t $300.
Is that really what they cost now? When I was a teenager I was astonished that they cost...I want to say $60-$80. That was so expensive to me then. So I never owned a pair despite wanting to for years.
I had the luck to get a pair of 32” jncos in ‘97 I think, maybe ‘98, and I remember them costing over $100. The bigger you went the more expensive of course.
But yea, they still make them. Just checked their website and it looks like prices have come down. Last I checked, about a year and a half ago, they were starting at around $300, but I’m seeing them in the $130 range with the 32” starting at $180 and the 50” going to $260. This is great, I might buy a pair later this year.
I suddenly don't hate my frugal ass self for spending 100$ on a custom piece of 100% hemp clothing for the first time last week. No way could I ever see myself spending > 200$ on a single pair of jeans
Yeah I think I remember the $100+ ones too. Might have been some on sale on occasion for less but I definitely envied everyone else who got them!

When you were a teenager the dollar was most likely worth a lot more. 60-80$ 20 years ago is 300$ in todays money
Yeah, maybe a good point
