Why do people wear jeans with those big size tags on them?

It’s a broken link. I really hate seeing people wearing their pants, “prison punked” style.

[Dr. Sivana]

I haven’t seen that in Phoenix. Are they doing that in Connecticut? When I left that state they were still wearing their pants around the knees and lost their shoe laces.

Do you mean that distinctive tan waist-and-inseam tag on the back of every pair of Levi’s? When I was in high school, it was left on to show everyone how slim you were. (This was back when we weren’t a nation of behemoths.) But now, showing off a 56” waist? I suspect the wearer no longer gives a damn.

I bought 3 pair of Levi’s around 1985. They were on sale and two sizes too small. For some reason I assumed I would lose the extra weight. They are still brand new.

Last time my Daughter’s family visited, I remembered them and told her my Grandson, could have them. He would have to grow a bit.

To my surprise She he didn’t seem interested.

I don’t consider a 56” waist all that large

thanks

I cut out the 56 and sew in a 30 and no one knows the difference.

What are you talking about?

[JBW1949]

I don’t see that it matters about what the tag says...

All one has to do is look at the person wearing them...

They are either slim, nornal or BIG...

Do you know why cowboys have their name on their belts?

So they will know who they are when they pull their head out of their azz. ;<)

But now, showing off a 56” waist?

Levis has gone LGBT

If they have gone metric, that 56(cm) would be 22 inches.

[Scrambler Bob]

OK, but do you inflate the bust size on your bra?

[Scrambler Bob]

56” ?

I erased the 1 off the front.

You got to buy them large.

Then wash and shrink, some.

Then wear them to stretch out where needed.

Back in the day.

I’m talking about a revolution.

[proxy_user]

You might be surprised at the modern collector value of unworn vintage Levis. Do they have rivets and an orange tag?

[SkyDancer]

My dad says the jeans today look like guys are wearing “butt bags”

[muggs]

Maybe he didn’t want them because they are Levi’s and Levi is anti 2A.
