Why did it become fashionable to tuck your pants into your socks?

As you know, fashion is ruled not only by fashion designers, but also by time and famous personalities, for example, hip-hop stars. This is exactly what happened with the recent trend of tucking socks into pants.

Nowadays, seeing a guy or girl with their socks tucked into their pants is far from new, but where did this trend come from? Initially, the story began with hip-hop dancers who wore very wide trousers and during the dance, so that they did not interfere, they had to be tucked in, plus, at the same time, high-top sneakers from trendy manufacturers came into fashion, and in order to show off them, it was excessive long trousers were mercilessly tucked in. This trend began in the 80s of America, then disappeared completely and today, as we know, the fashion world takes a lot of borrowings from the past.

Where did this trend come from?

And even now, this trick is often used by hip-hop dancers during rehearsals, after which they simply forget to return everything to its original form and can go home like that.But young people, who strive to distinguish themselves from everyone else, did not even need much push to adopt this trend and now in every city you can find a fashionable approach to the usual wearing of trousers.

And if in our country it is still rare to see this, then in America almost every third of those who follow the world of fashion walks the streets in exactly this form. The main thing in this trend is to preserve the original idea - to show others not only your spontaneity and originality, but also high-quality sneakers and socks from some cool brand.

How people react

And, of course, the most interesting topic is people’s reaction to this. It is impossible to argue that this is a rather strange trend, but, like any other, it only seems abnormal at first, and then people get used to it and begin to do the same. It’s worth remembering the reaction to inflated trousers, especially among guys. Initially it was ridiculed, and a few months later it was treated not just as normal, but as the most stylish decision of all centuries.

Tucking jeans into socks is considered absolutely normal for Americans; it is difficult to surprise people there; even world stars prefer to periodically appear in public in this form. But in Russia, so far they are skeptical about this and only a few decide to do this, while the rest can only photograph them, uploading them to the pages of forums with ridicule. Although, these ridicule cannot be called unreasonable, just remember that among our people such a “trend” has existed for a long time, however, it is used for the following:

• escaping ticks while walking in the forest;
• so that the pants do not get in the way while working;
• to avoid getting your feet wet in rainy weather.

There is no point in doubt, a few more months will pass, and every third person will walk exactly like this, without fear of looking funny in the eyes of others. All that remains is to give people a little time to get used to it, and don’t forget - everyone has the right to the opportunity to “express themselves” as they see fit.
