Am I crazy or does anybody else think it's weird that the most popular pants in the world maybe the most popular clothing item in the world period... is blue.Like not black or white or even grey or beige.... but blue. Blue does not magically go with everything despite what some people seem to think. It does not suit every skin tone either. So why blue?
>>18581847Probably has more to do with the garment itself than the color. I mean they were dyed blue with indigo probably because it was cheap and those were cheap work pants. What doesn’t blue go with?
>>18581854Blue
>>18581854Mostly everything, blue is unnatural, majority of animals in the world aren't blue. Blue just isn't a good color
>>18581847It probably derives from military and janitorial uniforms. That would be my guess. Then over time garment makers tried different dyes to reach more consumers. It’s not as if blue jeans have been super popular for more than a century yet. Blue could turn out to be a blip, a totally random and irrelevant accident. Besides, unwashed indigo basically looks navy.
>>18581847its indigo
>>18582354What the fuck are you talking about? Blue is a great color. I mean, it’s no red, or green - but blue is great. It’s a primary color and the color of the sky, ocean, and beautiful flowers, not to mention delicious fruits and even some eyes. It’s a fine color for garments and decorations of all kinds. Blue jeans stain well because the blue contrasts the color dirt in an interesting, gritty-looking way without looking homeless.
Jeans aren't going anywhere you dumbass. The most iconic outfits of the last 100 years more often than not involves a pair of jeans. You're not thinking outside the box and pushing the envelope, you're just being a contrarian for the sake of being a contrarian. Jeans have been a symbol of individualism and rebellion since the 50s due to their innate nature of forming fades that are unique to each pair. No two pairs are the same. They are the ultimate "not give a fuck" garment. Asking why they're blue is pointless. The answer is self evident, you wear jeans to be comfortable, feel casual, and not give a fuck.
>>18582354>blue is unnatural, majority of animals in the world aren't blueThe sky and sea is unnatural. Literal mongoloid talk.
>>18581847anyone can wear denim
>>18581847You’re not crazy, I’ve always felt the same.

>>18581847Blue looks especially bad on people persons of color. Black and brown people don't look all that great in cooler tones. It's why a lot of minorities and third worlders look bad (like hobos and criminals) in jeans.As to why they became so popular, you can thank (((Hollywood))). They memed jeans into popularity during the 50s through actors like James Dean, Marlon Brando, and glorifying degeneracy like greasers and biker gangs in the name of "rebelling" against "stuffy traditions". That made blue jeans iconic and a symbol of youth culture and rebellion. Before the 1950s, blue jeans were just workwear for miners and other blue collar workers. And they were blue because indigo was a pretty cheap dye back then. And to cut costs even more, they dyed only the warp yarn of the fabric while leaving the weft yarn undyed. It's why denim is blue on the outside and white on the inside.
>>18582360>bluecel seething and copingyou love to see it
>>18581847I had an existential crisis about this very question a few years ago. > Why are we all wearing blue jeans? Because we wanted to look like homosexual actors? Why does nobody else question this?>>18582360> beautiful flowersFaggot>>18581854> What doesn't blue go with?Black. It's not so much that it can't go with black, but most people lack the savoir vivre to actually pair black and blue and make it effay.
>>18581847That's just a shit blue
>>18582806After a few washes that will also turn into shit blue.
>>18582804A while back I got obsessed with buying black jeans in every cut and style. I don't regret it anymore. Black jeans are the Patrician choice.
>>18582783Bro, op didn’t ask to be taught the history of jeans.
>>18582865After my existential crisis I bought fifteen pairs of identical black jeans, partly because I had bought a lot of top half black clothes and I didn't want to look like the utter fags mxing black and blue.
>>18582865>>18582965Dressing all black, especially when your bottoms are jeans, is peak cringe and bad taste.
>>18582967Nobody's dressing in all black, faggot, except in your gay fantasies. Pic related, keep for your collection, I know you like it
>>18582970Sorry, I don’t like it because I’m straight, so I’m only into twinks and femboys.
Imagine people walking around with red, yellow or green jeans
>>18582976Green jeans are pretty good.
>>18582976I don't have to imagine
>>18582976None of you have mentioned white jeans which means none of you have sex
>>18582964OP asked why blue, so I told him why.
>>18583004He didn’t really ask why blue. He’s just fascinated and puzzled by the mere fact that the most popular garment in the world is blue.
>>18583007He literally asked "why blue". So I told him why blue is the default color of jeans worldwide, because it always was the default color of jeans, because indigo was cheap. And then Hollywood started pushing jeans as a symbol of youth and rebellion, so blue jeans became a cultural icon across the world. And this was back in the 1950s when there was no social media, internet, or even much of television. So trends could last longer and spread wider without much competition. Not to mention, the world was also getting Americanized in the 50s and 60s after America winning WW2. Everyone wanted to look "cool" wearing Americana. Hence why blue jeans are the default type of jeans. It's just cultural inertia.

>>18581847It's not the color or the fabric that's the problem but the standard 5-pocket design itself. Denim trousers like pic related are superior in every way (comfort, pockets, silhouette) while retaining the charms of denim and depth of indigo.
>>18583469>braindead retard can't read between the linesStick to watching brainrot on tik tok you fucking troglodyte.
>>18583669Nice zoomerslop, faggot. Your denim sacks are on their way out.
>>18583709KYS you aging millennial nigger. That's what normal jeans look like. Your gay little skinny and millennial tapered jeans are the exception, not the rule.
>>18583712>he doesn't know about Elvis and James Dean
>>18583714Nooo, Marlon Brando wore the skinny jeans! I can see the outline of his legs instead of a retarded burlap sack.
>>18583709>zoomerslopDenim trousers are exclusively worn by autistic old men. I'm saying they should be the default given their objective superiority for everyone who isn't trying to larp as Marlon Brando.
>>18583716The difference, is unlike you millennial faggots, they wore all cuts of jeans depending upon the situation and the style they were going for. And most of you faggot millinnials would call those jeans baggy anyway because they don't have your gay millennial taper.
>>18583723Lol, stay mad.
>>18583723>throwing up gen bait unironicallyAre you, retarded, dare I say?
>>1858235470% of the entire planet is blue though.
>>18582804Blue suit and black shoes is probably the most classic combination since the invention of a suit.
>>18582375the sky and the sea arent blue lol...
>>18581847its pretty safe to assume shades of brown and beige are the actual popular colour of pants if we look at human history as a whole. modern american people seem to think humanity is only 150 yrs old
