they are pretty low right now. i was high school about 5 years ago and and they wore belts but STILL had the crotch at their knees. i tried to think fairly and think maybe yea sagging pants down a couple of inches off the hips. ok yea that MAYBE looks cool. but with the crotch at the knees DOES NOT make sense. then i felt stupid for trying to reason with society like that.
THEN they have to walk with their legs spread further apart to keep the pants up. and then they hide whats not covered by pants with a 3XL tshirt. when they clearly can fit into a medium.
