We looked like some fools back in the day.

in 04 I was probably 5’3” and 120 pounds. No earthly reason why I was wearing 3xl t shirts.

Man there was a Twitter account highlighting NBA Players wearing baggy clothes.

This should be a fun thread

I remember in 02-03 wearing the baggy Ecko shirts and shorts that might as well been pants

 

[you go boy]

02-04 i remember wearing tall tees alone or under jerseys and thought i was doing it... i remember getting my jerseys big too lol

 

[itshlittt]

jeans so baggy had to tie my shoes laces around it.

Baggy era was good for chubby/fat dudes. Didn’t make that weight as noticeable ?

I wasn’t tryna look like the swag surf dude who went all the way in on the skinny era. Luckily I lost weight around ‘09.

 

[putting in work]

We all were guilty of the baggy era

What was funnier was the transition to tighter clothes and dudes calling it smedium and etc.

I remember when some dudes was half and half also. Either they had a tight top and still baggy jeans or baggy top and tighter jeans

I still don't like the super tight look and although I don't wear big baggy clothes I damn sure wasn't going to be rocking skin tight skinny jeans.

One of the worst fashion that came with tighter clothes was dudes rocking tight thigh high shorts/jorts.

My shorts are still baggy and come to my knees or just below it. I can't do the tight poom poom/daisy duke shorts for men.

da superior way imo vs using thumb tacks.

 

[a blinkin]

Thumb tacks pinned into the back of my AF1 soles and slightly rolling the jeans over them so they’d go unnoticed.

What a time to be alive

 

[tay1]

Trash era. ******* jeans was so baggy they was tying the bottoms with rubber bands

[District of Columbia]

Had a 3X steep tech in 05

Dont see this era ever coming back

 

[a blinkin]

I doubt it’ll get as outrageous as 3xl tees, but there’s a wave of people trying to bring back the more loose fitting stuff.

Kanye, the ASAP cats, Gunna, etc.

 

[parada45]

So many sick huge jerseys in my closet I can never wear

If this era comes back I'll be good

 

[ninjahood]

early-90's baggy was stable (army fatigues, XXL beIng da biggest size available)...once folks got into da tall tees it was da slow death of da era...it got tooo ridiculous.

 

[kicks2024]

Idc those were the prime days growing up. We WERE doin it (at the time) ??‍

Tall tees, throwbacks, matching fitteds, girbauds, AF1s, burning cds/cd players,

 

[alchemist iq]

I'm to a victim of the baggy era....red monkey jeans were baggy, LRG shirts were baggy.

Fat asses flourished in this era
