can somebody please explain this board's obsession with rolling up your pants? Ok, doing it every once in a while is fine I guess, but you guys seem to do it all the time and for absolutely no good reason. Is there an explanation for this? Is it a troll? Most of the time in fit pics people post in WAYWT it looks like pic related. You guys really don't think that's a good look, do you?

nice post dad

it's so there's no break over your shoes because that looks sloppy. also shows off your socks. generally just looks cleaner

well yeah

Well, with most high end jeans they come in one inseam length only,, so unless you are a giraffe they will be long as fuck so instead of getting them hemmed you can cuff them, the other reasons people do it is to show off that their jeans are selvedge, to show off their shoes or because they are a sheep

>nice post dad
thanks for showing how much of a newfag you are. nobody on /fa/ rolled their pants 2 years ago. it's a new trend on /fa/

>>9443762
so it's a manlet compensation device? showing off your "selvedge"? pathetic. and most people here don't have that interesting of socks

i swear some of you kids do it literally day. i bet people know you as "that kid who always rolls up his pants"

Besides aesthetics cuffs add weight to the bottom of the pants, creating a better trouser drape.

are you the fuck that's been spamming the waywts with "why r u cuffin ur pants when u dont need to lol"

answer: sometimes it looks better than letting it fall. that's literally the only reason. people have been cuffing for decades and will be for a good long time, get used to it.

Jeans look awesome with a rolled cuff.

>>9443585
i do it because it's an easy way of managing inseam length. i don't like cropped jeans, i don't hem my jeans too high and this way i can wear the same pair with both boots and sneakers. pinrolling everything is gay af tho
guys wearing pinrolled sweatpants, jesus christ

pinrolling is good if you want a more tapered look but are either

>A) to stupid or poor for a sewing machine to just taper them yourself
>B) to lazy to do it

but i do agree /fa/ seems to cuff their pants for no good reason, and waay too often, ive seen some good or decent fits get absolutely ruined for no reason because the person always wants to roll or cuff their jeans/pants

pants are either too long or too short on me so I get long pants and cuff them so that they dont bunch up at the bottom or at my knees
