Here's a rant from my website that I thought fitting to share with you guys:
-----------
If you've paid any attention to peoples' clothes these days, you may have noticed that prefaded jeans are all the rage right now. Apparently, they make you look "rugged and real". Please. The only thing prefaded jeans make you look like is a moron. Wearing prefaded jeans is like saying "Wow! I'm an idiot, so I spent eighty bucks on a stupid pair of pants!" I probably wouldn't hate these new prefaded jeans as much if they looked, well, actually faded. Seriously, they look like somebody was pissing bleach and they shot a few good squirts your way. Anyone who's made it out of the suburbs and actually faded a pair of jeans knows that the rear and the knees are the first parts to fade - you'll never get stupid white stripes running down the front of your pants.
I also don't see why people see the need to waste obscene amounts of money on a pair of pants. If you want faded jeans that bad, why not run to your local Salvation Army store instead, and buy some real faded jeans for two bucks? You'd also be supporting a good cause, as opposed to encouraging child labour in a third world country. If the Salvation Army is too low class for you (read: your chin is too high in the air for you to set foot in there), then why not go to Wal Mart and buy a pair of brand new, regular jeans? They're at least half the price of prefaded ones, and you can fade them yourself.
There's a lot to be said for being intelligent and saving money while you're at it.
