Question Trousers Falling Down

What is it with these kiddies who wear their trousers halfway down their 4rses?

It makes them look idiotic, stupid and ridiculous.

Do you buy them like it, or do they have to be actually falling down?

Words fail me .... is it some Gangsta thing like innit?

Stupid. I saw one lad's drop to the floor leaving him stood in his undies in the street a while back. The crotch down by their knees makes them look like a 2yo with a full nappy, and those sock hats are just awful. And who the foo decided espadrilles needed to come back !

My neigbour's son (soon to be ex as he has scored himself a council house) walks about like that!
He has to walk a certain way to keep them up, which makes him look even more stupid

He obviously thinks he looks good, Christ knows why!

Its just letting them get use to a fast release system when they get banged up, so Leroy can show them where the soap goes

It's like a few years back when girls were wearing wrap-around skirts, but were terrified someone might see their upper thigh, so walk around with one hand clasping the skirt together Either don't wear it, wear a short underskirt beneath, or fasten the opening with a safety pin, but FFS what does it matter :

Default Lechery

Leching is inversly proportional to age, when young you just do it, but as the years tick by the spirit is still strong, but the taught lines leave. So lechery is the only thing left!
I have a 62 year old friend who is the most lecherous person ever, also 1.55m tall and 100Kg!

They do look bloody daft, but at the end of the day, it's just a fashion, something which thankfully will die out.

It certainly is a rubbish look.

I believe the "official" name is saggin. Quite a few places in the US are trying ban it, particularly schools.

Yep it came from the US jails years ago prisoners wore baggy uniforms and belts were banned,so on some the trousers wouldn't fit and hang down below the waist.Then the US rappers started wearing pants/jeans etc in the same way/style,and now you see kids in this country doing it.If you ask most of them they probably wouldn't even know it came from the American jails,it wasn't even anything to do with fashion.

This has been a style for at least 10 years - you've only just noticed?

Don't worry about some youngsters trousers coming down, OAPS like yourself have just as much trouble hitching their's up!

Makes it easy to spot idiots though, it's like a giant neon sign which tells you they're retarded.

I'd imagine Pete's elasticated jeans don't have that problem.

From someone who is 50+ that really takes the biscuit!

I imagine they wear their trousers like that as yet another blow in the fight against authority.

Pity they don't realise what a load of prats they look!

Luckily this is a civilised part of the UK down here so we rarely see it.

Fecking drives me mad this stupid fashion. I make a point of shouting at the them to pull their trousers up and get a fecking grip !!

I now sound like my dad

Did have to laugh at that burgler who tried to do a bunk from his car but because his jeans were so low down he couldnt run away very fast and the cops just strolled up to him and nicked him..****

Isn't the visible ****-crack the reason for the death of the WYIOC ?

The version I heard was that "Mummy" objected to a comment that "Sonny" looked like a tramp...

R.I.P.

Originates from US prisons apparently. They make you remove your belt as you might hang yourself with it otherwise, so your trousers ride low.

Gangsters or gangster wannabes then started wearing their trousers like that on the street to denote

a) They have been to jail
b) Show of solidarity for a mate who's doing time
c) Because they're proud of their bottom/boxers and want to show them off??

Is that why gangsters call each other "Homie"
