Baggy Pants Hip Hop Wear
In 2011, the trend of mostly young men wearing their pants under their "bottom" doesn't not look to be ending any time soon. It's typical to see groups of young men patrolling the city streets with their pants riding low, proudly displaying their boxers as if it were couture. And in fact, it is couture in the world of hip hop wear.
It's not just about wearing the baggy pants, that's just a part of the overall hip hop style. And not everyone who is into hip hop style wears baggy pants. Some go for slim or tight fit instead. Either way, this is a trend that is disturbing to some people who find it very immature, and some point out the link to prison culture that baggy pants stem from. In jail they confiscate belts, and this look made its way from prisons to urban clothing market in the 1990s when popular rap artists started wearing it in videos.
