What were some of the dumbass fads people did when you were in HS?

[CarltonJunior]

I'm a young nikka so the tall tee era was in middle school, but in high school it was all skinny jeans, skater shyt, foams/j's after concords/galaxy foams dropped

BUT THIS IS BY FAR THE WORST DAMN FAD

On a side note:

Not really a fad because I was the only one who did it, but I used to rock these long ass socks to gym class in different colors

You was doin it big then my nikka

1999-2002

Essentially this, only add Johnny Blaze, FUBU, Pelle Pelle, Ruff Ryders, and Ecko brands

Fake Manolo's for the hoes
Gold Nugget earrings
Bauds with kangaroo pockets
Platinum Fubu
Airbrushed shirts with your click on it

Such a glorious time

You right. That was when the shift happened. After Party like a Rock star dropped, urban clothing started parodying White/Rock/Punk/Skater culture. Mohawks, Skinny Jeans, Vans, Famous Bandanas around peoples faces became popular with Black teens. Then Lil Wayne started skateboarding, then he dropped that pop punk rock album(with the hit single Prom Queen) that's when the shift became official. By then, Girbouxs, Baggy Jeans, Forces, Goofy backpacks, Tall Tees, and Aviator glasses were all considered

byrd gang blew up that rockstar look.

not no shop boyz song. that was after the fact.

All the dudes used to hug each other each time they seen each other

People used to wear polo everything down to the draws and Levi jeans

People wore Mohawks

That aint a fad

Lo is timeless

It was a combination. Byrd Gang were rocking those Ed Hardy shirts. But all those Famous, Vans, Skinny jeans stuff came from many influences. Lupe, Shop Boyz, The Pack, Weezy, etc.
