I mean, at that point you might as well wear normal jeans.

Yeah I don’t understand shabby fashion at all. I mean if I’m wearing clothing that’s full of holes it’s because I’m too cheap and lazy to buy new clothes.

I never grew out of the grunge style. I love holes in the knees of my jeans. I just don't buy them that way. The holes need to be earned.

Never worn holes through the knees of any pants. Mine usually tear all around the pockets, around the beltloops and such. Even at the bottom of the pockets where the bottom of my phone would rub against the inside of the cloth. That said... Unless you are falling down how are you wearing holes in the places shown in the picture?

Working on my hands and knees on concrete, gravel, or dirt. Or just walking around with shit-quality pants. As a kid? Eating shit on my skateboard or rollerblades.

Here I thought someone was just kicking you in the shins a lot, haha.

Yeah that's why Kurt Cobain and other punk/grunge musicians wore this kind of clothes. Then he became one of the biggest rockstar ever, which caused him to blow his head off and the trendy people to start dressing like him.

That is to make sure that next time you fall on tarmac, you properly scrape your knees instead of just having it rubbing with rough cloth.

You're a trendsetter!

I ride electric boards. My pants are full of holes, not because I'm cheap or lazy, but because my pants don't last long 😅

That’s legit though. I’m talking about the people who buy jeans that are pre-worn, with big holes and cuts in them from the store!
