No, people rip them, wash them in acid, and generally do everything possible to make them look like they came from a hobo, then stitch cute hearts on the sear so rich kids can look like they're "from the streets." I don't understand it, but this happens in cycles. E.g. tanning used to be bad because it indicated working outdoors, but then it flipped.
Personally, I'll stick to my durable denim that I can keep for three years or more.
- rapnie 7y agoI saw a documentary a while ago about the poor Bangladesh factory workers who were doing the ripping, scraping, bleaching and staining on a daily basis. They were completely, utterly dumbfounded on why one would destroy brand new clothing like that, and no amount of explaining could make them see why these crazy Westerners would prefer wearing shabby clothes.
