JNCO parachute pants, a Korn shirt, wallet chains, and ball-chain necklaces were the uniform of that time period. Gen-Z mushroom tops also have nothing on the all around close shave with long front bangs.

    @TimeSquirrel @siipale @BudgieMania parachute pants need a comeback. They were the most roomy and comfortable jeans ever

    The only correct dimensions for pants are the dimensions that allow you to steal a second pair of pants underneath them

    Dude, those styles are all coming back. Maybe not the Korm shirt, but the 90s styles are coming back, and early 2000s are coming back in some forms, but I assume we’ll see a return to those things soon. We’re already seein. The weird ugly early 2000s sunglasses, we’ll see low rise jeans come back eventually…it’s all cyclical.

    As a mid-millennial, though, I don’t see many people making fun of gen Z styles? Which of them are people making fun of?

    I don't understand why anybody wouldn't use a chain wallet. You don't have to worry about your wallet falling out or getting pickpocketed.

    Does it actually help with pickpockets though? I feel like if anything, it advertises its location, and with a good strong yank the fabric loop is attached to would just rip out.

    I've never had it stolen, so...perhaps?

    Where else would it be? Don't right-handed people store it in their right front pocket? And since most people are right-handed...you're going to be correct most the time.

    with a good strong yank the fabric loop is attached to would just rip out.

    That would be a helluva strong yank, though, and it would certainly be much more difficult than just lifting the wallet out. Nothing is going to be 100% secure. It's about making the theft as difficult as possible.
