This was done mainly due to the grunge era..popularized 1st by Kurt Cobain's Nirvana. He made it to where (even in this day in highschool kids clothing) poor kids could get away wearing their dads beat up hole ridden levi's. The bigger the jeans the better. All you needed was some cool sweater or mini tee to accompany it and some vans and you were in!

Baggy jeans actually came about from Amerian prisoners who had their belts took from them to prevent suicide. I have been rocking baggy trousers all my life and will continue to do so!

ok the baggy pant did come from prisons but and they did take their belts to prevent the prisoners from killin themselves. but the really didnt need the belts bc they gave them clothes that fit, but the baggy pant came from the prisoners that were available for sex from their other prison mates.....maybe that changes your point of view on how cool they are.....now that you kno where they came from.....

The first Grunge band was the Melvins. Formed 1981, on SUBterranean Pop records, only to become Sub-Pop.

PS- The Rave scene really kicked off the baggy stuff. We had "Phat Clown" pants back in '90-'92. Other brands were FreshJive and Sjobeck. These were SO BAGGY! I mean they were able to fit 2 people in them.

The people writing about how great skinny jeans are were obviously born in the 90's. If you were alive before that you would remeber how horribly uncomfortable jeans were when there was only one fit.

I was big on the Kikwear and JNCO jeans back in the day. Also, I remember in the third grade, my grandmother got me a pair of Lee Pipes!

I remember in high school people were considered to be really square if they wore tight jeans. I'm waiting for baggy jeans to come back in style for girls...they were really comfortable.

I fell that the fashion game has took clothing back to the 1980's. I could not stand those nut-choker pants at all, the only thing I like'd in the 80's was Lacoste, and dats it. And it's like they brought back the 80's but in the greenest way, me personally, I'm Jamaican who lived in Rochester, NY most of my childhood and in the 90's I lived in Miami, FL & Norfolk, VA and I like'd baggy jeans better and custom tailored Italian suits. And the whole style of baggy jeans had the airbrushed graffiti on da fit and have patent leather on both regular & leather baggy jeans and it was great style. I believed that in the early 2000's have combined all the styles at once, and I'm only 32 and I think fashion needs to have every style that suits the consumer.

Exhaust Jeans started it all in 92' ... baggy jeans were the shiznit... dont ever forget, the best style to ever come out!!!

Not much of a fan of baggy or skinny. Just plain straight leg jeans never go in or out of style. Had tons of JNCOs, purchased at Gadzooks. By 1997, we had them so baggy they literally covered your entire shoe, as if you were floating. We called those hover pants. I had some that were 24" around at the bottom of the leg. Redonkulous.

I was born in the 90s and I can't stand skinny jeans! They look so bad. I adore baggy jeans, it started when I was 7 and I saw this gothic-looking girl with big baggy trousers on and I thought she was beautiful! I pestered my parents to buy me some and I have never looked back =D

Kurt didn't even start the baggy jeans trend on purpose. He was very thin and he would always wear tons of layers of clothes, baggy jeans probably just helped hide how thin he really was.

baggy IS ghetto people they make the body look unproportional drag on the ground, rip, and collect dirt not to mention a lot of people who swore by their baggys are now biting once again and switching to skinnies all that "theyre too tight" talk is BS from people whom follow the crowd and have never bothered being uniue with their style

I absolutely adore baggy jeans! Maybe it's because skinny jeans look horrible on me, but anyways. ;)

Not my favorite look. I'm little and they make me look like I'm drowning in them. If you are stocky, skinny jeans look terrible.
