‘This is the epitome of style for men, no changing my mind.’ One user wrote.
Another said, ‘this is my favourite trend.’
For many it seemed that moving away from skinny dreams was the first step in a change in personal style, with the TikTok trend often highlighting a complete switch in how the men chose to dress.
Some viewers were hesitant to brush off skinny jeans for good, with users saying that if styled correctly, skinny jeans can look just as good as other styles that are currently popular.
