JNCO Jeans Are Back??? (But Actually Never Left & Actually Were Never Cool)

The Gents discuss the life cycle of arguably the worst fashion fad of the 90's: JNCO Jeans. Pants so baggy they looked like denim teepees, with styles named wack-ass shit like "Pipes" and "Kangaroos" because of how big and stupid their leg holes and pockets were. These jeans were perfect for kids who wanted to look like skaters, but whose moms wouldn't let them because it was just too dangerous. Apparently, the brand relaunched in 2019, but did they ever really leave? And were they ever actually cool? (No, and no).

On the polar opposite end of the spectrum... Jason takes great pains to explain a fashion trend that is MEGA COOL and yet EXTREMELY UNCOMMON. And that would be the chunky hoop earring on men.

Tune in to hear the only other man who consistently pulls this look off!
