It’s because they’re for a niche now. I don’t remember them breaking the bank when I got them. More expensive than Levi’s sure but they definitely added a zero.
They were $80-100 jeans in '90s dollars back then, so about the same price with inflation really. They were always a niche corner of the market when compared to regular jeans, they were just a popular niche for a while.
No, but it’s equivalent to the $180-280 most of the current JNCOs are actually priced at. I think the $2000 comment was exaggerating for effect, because I can’t even find anything on their website over $300.
The fuck are those prices? 2k bucks for pants?

are you trying to say $80-100 in 1999 is equivalent to $2000 today?
