When will “”jeans”” go out of fashion, as the most commonly worn garment?

Question

Sirke · Accepted Answer

"Jeans or denim isn't fashion. They are common garments worn by those who wish to wear pants and not have to buy designer clothing. They have been around for generations and are durable. They aren't some fashionistic thing that goes out of "style". Before denim existed, people skinned animals and made leather leggings that they wore until they fell apart. Or they wore wool pants if they were in the higher society. Before that, it was common for men and women both to wear long robe-like garments made from cotton or whatever materials they had available. So, find some other material that is durable and comfortable and you willagog lace denim as the most common pants material. "

Corey · Answer

I honestly think that cotton jeans are going to be replaced by hemp jeans, once the world gets past its marijuana hysteria. You still get a durable, breathable fabric, but without the need for so many pesticides. I think that comfy, practical pants are going to be in fashion as long as we fancy ourselves an egalitarian society.

Sevda · Answer

Mind is kinda blown from thinking about jeans for so long. I totally was unaware that, by wearing jeans, I've been making a choice of fashion my entire life. I wonder what my life would be like today if my mom laid out something other than jeans for me one day and that's all I wore for the rest of my life.  I wore corduroys once in high school. I didn't like the person I was becoming.

Hayden · Answer

The Lindy Effect implies that social phenomena like ideas, technologies, and styles have life spans that follow the power law. That is, the older it is the longer it is likely to last. Roughly speaking blue jeans became popular clothing in the 1950s and so at this point the trend is likely to last another 60 years at least. This is the exact opposite of the jeans themselves which follow a gaussian distribution so that the older they get the more likely they are to fail.

Audre · Answer

I don't have an answer to the question, but I wear jeans all the time because they're durable, and they seem to look okay with almost anything. I never wore jeans as a child because my parents thought they were weird and never bought them. I used to think they disapproved of jeans because they were too tight-looking. That was partly the case, but they also assumed that jeans were uncomfortable.

CONCHA · Answer

"What strikes me as terribly odd (after thinking about jeans for 15 minutes0 is that we have all, as a species decided that wearing blue pants is acceptable normal, and cool looking. But why? What makes blue normal. We think of aliens as wearing silver body suits but they think of us like :Oh, those earthlings and their blue trousers." Why not black or a more neutral brown or tan color? Really blue is what we have chosen? "
