They're useful, practical, a small group of those people grew up with them, and, oh yeah - they became very trendy again a few years ago as an easily-accessible part of the heritage revival. Because of the former, people can easily pretend that they're the ones that have been wearing them forever, somehow elevating themselves in the eyes of their peers (or rather the reflection of their self in the blank eyes of their peers)
