>Am I the only one? Does anyone know how I can go about getting higher-waist pants?
You are not the only one, though I wouldn't recommend it.

Lots of old people wear high-cut pants, you could always start where they'd shop - mall stores and shit.

>>10284919
Why wouldn't you recommend it? Is it too anachronistic? Too fedora-y?

>>10284914
>wearing pants at the hip is incorrect
not necessarily. some trousers are designed to sit at the hip. low rise pants, they are a relatively modern invention that derived from early 2000's womenswear and they suck ass. you can never tuck your shirt in them.

nowadays it's rather difficult to find good mid or high rise pants. but they still exist.

>>10284952
Do you know where I can find decent mid or high rise pants?

>>10284967
a lot of the original trad/prep brands make okay chinos and whatnot. j press, brooks brothers, ll bean, lands end. also dickies 874, bill's khakis, etc.

of course the fit on most of those is rather traditional but mtm options like luxire and indochino allow you to tailor the pants to your proportions and pick the exact rise you want.

jeans wise there is of course the classic levi's 501 (lvc does nice repros of older models and related jeans like 606s), wrangler 936s, 13mwzs, or 36mwzs, american apparel, japanese repro and raw denim brands will do a lot more of these as well.

i haven't covered all the bases but that should give you a good idea of what you're looking for

Thanks m8, you've given me a lot to look into.

American Apparel jeans

Funny, i just stared to look high-cut jeans/pants myself too! I will be monitoring this thread.

>>10284938
don't reply to bateman. Just don't.

>>10286266
Will do. Does anyone have any inspo or whatever? I'm just looking around google and it's not very helpful. Something like this looks like it would be more comfortable. Although I'm not used to seeing such a short torso, it doesn't look bad.

I've also read that a lot of companies push for low-waisted pants/jeans to save money on material. Is this true?

ever since I watched akira I've wanted some jeans that fit like that, what the hell do you call the fit of pants that kaneda has?

>>10286622
also if I'm short (5'7") usually wearing 30" leg is it better to go for high or low rise?

>>10286631

Killing yourself is probably the best option, you perpetually unattractive manlet

>>10286636
ah ok thanks for the tip good friend

>>10286631
well let's see. it will visually lengthen your legs, but also shorten your torso. that can be a good or bad thing depending on how you're proportioned. i'd say try it out.
>>10286622
slim? it's difficult to tell because the entire lower portion is concealed by boots.

Thank you!

Not to sound like a 'born in the wrong generation' kid but why were pants consistently higher up until very recently? Was it rap/nigga culture in the 90's?

>>10288320
some big designers put that shit on the runway, celebrities started wearing it and it caught on. no real rhyme or reason it just kind of happened, like most trends.

>>10288351
Yeah but I'd say it's more than just a trend. It's the norm. Just like high rise pants were the norm back in the day.

Not that everything was perfect, of course. There are some really gaudy color schemes in the imgur links, and bowlcuts galore.

>>10288430
lol, the whole bottom is literally my everyday wear

>>10288298
where to get these exact pants?

>>10288683
aa regular fit 100

brand recommendations? Looking for brands that have mid or high rise jeans.
Brands I can think of are acne and wrangler. Really wish I knew more.

This is /fa/ as fuck

Is this a real life photo or a movie still?

>>10289783
real photo from a riot in the '80s i believe

Really want to find a nice pair. I have a long torso and shorter legs so I think it would fix my proportions.

>>10289783
Yes it's real. Here is a still from this video showing one of those men and the same forklift

very effay
