Are cuffs going out of style?

[Fuuma]

Cuffing will always be punk as fuck. It's def a great way to wear jeans with boots. I think cuffs+dunks look is awkward tho

Cuffing with boots look good if the jeans do not in any way "break" I think, plus it's better with rougher style of boots. With sleeker pairs and tighter jeans I just let the pants bunch at the bottom.

[Get Smart]

totally agree. you gotta have zero break, even be a bit short, with boots. Also thanks for taking it a step further with the sleek boots bit, which do look better uncuffed

totally on point, fuuma

I think that body type has a lot to do with wether you should cuff or not. Sometimes, on a short wide person, cuffs can make that person look even shorter and wider. So I think it depends on the person and the cut of the jean.

slim shoes = cuff or stack ok!

hi tops, bulky shoes = stack

[cultpop 0217]

depends on the cut of the jean, type of shoe, and mood im in.

whats in style with the masses shouldnt be a factor.

Ankle freezers is the new cuffing.....

I noticed in the last issue of GQ, they show rapper T.I. wearing those new baggy APCs with pretty decent stacks over some Y-3 sneakers. I don't often rock baggy, but I'm sure wishing I could trade in my Bjorns for those APCs.

I wonder, however, if we weren't committed selvedgeists, if we'd even notice a non-selvedge cuff?

If you didn't know what it was, I'm sure you'd never notice or care. OTOH, it always sticks out like a sore thumb for me.

You people are fucking insane sometimes. I cuff my non-selvedge Crates and I don't cuff my RRDS. Why? Because that's the best look for them with the shoes that I wear with them, respectively. So, I'm sorry DDML, the idea that cuffing non-selvedge is wrong or looks bad is just plain silly.

The fact that this is even a topic blows my mind. Grow a fucking identity of your own...if you want to cuff it, cuff it. If not, don't. Listening to someone's personal view on the idea of cuffing a pair of jeans is destroying the very idea of dry denim. It's supposed to be how you personally wear your jeans and the bumps and bruises that you accumulate along the way.

I'm so curmudgeonly.

Whats the point in discussing anything? Opinions are like arseholes -everybody has one of his/hers own...

[poly800rock]

the point was not to discuss which jeans you should cuff, but more so if anyone still cuffs, havent seen anyone cuff in WDYWT

that in itself is an opinion.

and this is the right place for opinions...

[rocker4life]

cuffs can never go out of style

i love the giant cuffs you always see in the 40s and 50s Levis ads. however, 501s usually dont ever fit that good (or tight!) and ive never been able to pull off a giant cuff myself....

maybe it only works in the cartoons?!

for instance, take that bazooka joe bubble gum character... his jeans look the coolest!

haha.

I shouldn't try to be sarcastic...

i posted pics with my jeans cuffed a couple of days ago

[Double D]

I think stacking is seeing a redux not because cuffing is out but simply because there's a hell of a lot more slim/straight/tapered legs on shop shelves right now.

A couple of years ago when the shops were vastly dominated by boot & wide legs stacking just wasn't an option, and the issue was whether to cuff or just tread off the backs of your jeans.

Just my 2 cents.
