Just kidding. I do remember being about 16 and doing some very similar graffiti work. Drunk and pissed off... oh those were the good old days.

I swear George Michael wore those in the Wham! Jitterbug video. Well, maybe not, but anyhow I give them a 1.89.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't think my gay friends would be caught dead wearing that. Most of them have taste. Seriously, you might as well buy parachute pants with MC Hammer stencils screened on and walk around with "ICE" newly etched in on the back of your head.

But other than that, hey, they're just pants.

lol, Thankyou for the replies guys. I do appreciate it, even the bad comments.

These are totally a DIY job done by me using stencil, not factory produced. Had to make them look Rockstar. I have the beard (Ginger) like the guy from Viva La Bam and the long hair.

If its any coincidence, I made these jeans available to people on eBay.co.uk, and got 33 bids for them, over £120 but they didn't hit the reserve. Actually, the reserve was set at £10,000. I didn't want to sell them, I just wanted to see the auction from a popularity viewpoint. But that was alot more bids & money than the pretty popular Dsquared brand jeans which isn't bad considering these jeans were £10, it was just the work that was the effort.

Sorta doable if you did it yourself, spectacularly lame if you bought them that way.
