THERE WEREN'T REALLY SKNY JEANS WHEN I WAS HIGH SCHOOL OR I WASN'T AWARE OF BEE OF SKATEBOARDG AND RAP MIC BEG SUCH AN FLUENCE. I PERSONALLY HATED BEE GAVE NO SHAPE TO THE BODY. I WOULD TAKE JEANS TO A TAILOR AND BASILLY RTCTURE THEM AND MAKE THEM THNER THE THIGHS. AT THE TIME, I STILL LIKED A LTLE FLARE, A BOOT-CUT. SO I WOULD TAKE THEM , BUT THEN I WOULD ADD AN EXTRA FABRIC LIKE A TAN RDUROY FABRIC THAT WOULD FLARE OUT OF THEM. IT SOUNDS SUPER CHEY NOW, BUT WAS PRETTY OL BACK THEN! ONE DAY I WAS WALKG THROUGH MALIBU AND ONE OF THE HEAD STYLISTS FOR 'N SYNC ME UP TO ME! HE WAS LIKE, "WHERE DID YOU GET THOSE PANTS? THEY'RE CREDIBLE!" I'M LIKE, "I MA THEM!" HE SAID, "YOU'VE GOT TO MAKE THE PANTS FOR THIS BAND I'M WORKG WH." I NEVER REALLY PURSUED THAT AVENUE, BUT MA ME REALIZE, "SH*T, MAYBE I ULD DO THIS!" I GET A LOT OF PLIMENTS; PEOPLE ASK ME. IN HIGH SCHOOL I SOLD THEM. IT'S ALWAYS BEEN A PASSN OF ME. I WOULD GO TO BARNEY'S MY ADULT LIFE AND BUY A SU OR A NICE PAIR OF PANTS BEE THE FABRIC IS CREDIBLE OR WHATNOT, AND I'D STILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT'S A $300 PAIR OF PANTS, BUT I'D STILL GO TO MY TAILOR'S AND SPEND A $150 ON RTCTURG THEM THE WAY I WANT THEM, AND NEXT THG YOU DO 'S FOUR HUNDRED-SOMETHG DOLLARS -- I WANT TO CREATE MY OWN PANTS FOR EVERYONE TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD! I WANTED TO DO SOMETHG ON MY OWN, SO I STARTED THIS PANY LLED DROE. I GOT THE WEBSE, STARTED SHOWG AROUND, AND FRED SEGAL PLACED A NICE ORR. A BUNCH OF LOL STOR DID TOO.
