I didn't know what they were until I was out this weekend and my date directed my attention to what she was wearing. To my chagrin, I had to be practically clubbed over the head to 'get' the reference ... :lmao:

Getting :eek:ldtimer: is a bitch ... :smileyballs:

I have no idea. And I can't figure out if it should be a compliment or a put-down.

 
I knew about them because of my daughters. I googled just in case there was another reference, but it seems it's just what I thought. How, pray tell, did you and your date get to a discussion about apple bottoms? HMMMM?!! :)

That is a different commentary all together! :p

It's the brand that she likes to wear. I figured cool, she likes stylish jeans, and then smiled and nodded my head in approval. I guess my lack of reaction registered the fact that I wasn't quite catching on to where she was coyly trying to direct my attention! :lmao:

Sometimes men are just dense .... :wacko: I was able to recover after that faux pas though! :plusone: :eyebrows:

I have no idea WTF anyone in this thread is talking about.
I am glad to know that I am not the only one who didn't get it. :)

Hint for FW: Google it

Glad I'm not alone on that one.

I've always been fashion illiterate. Being partially color blind doesn't help. When I travel anywhere that jeans won't cut it, my wife helps me pack the clothes in sets so I don't end up dressing funny.

 
I hve a teenage daughter, I thank those members who are more"With it" for keeping abreast of these trends.

I had no clue what you were talking about. Those "apples" don't look very practical, they're not even pockets.

:dunno:

so.. JR was apple pie on the menu?

They look functional to me... but I've never seen these in the wild.

JR: Do your hands fit in the pocket?

 
Well it is definitely refreshing to know I am not soooo far out of the loop by the responses in the poll. :)

why would you want jean that have back pockets in the shape of an apple w/stem?
I have no idea. However, I have come to realize the corollary to her point = "I am really, really, really high maintenance." :Locolaugh:

I am not really 'with it' but I will be happy to furnish reports on the state-of-dating from the front-lines. :)

As of today, I think the insurgents might be trying to fortify their position - her response to a second date went from absolutely Saturday night to maybe yesterday. I suddenly remember why dating was just so much fun. :smileyballs:

I thought there may have been the opportunity for a slice but ... we'll see.

JR: Do your hands fit in the pocket?
I don't know - I wasn't brazen enough to move-in for the slide and grope! If I get a second chance, I will let you know. :)

I had no idea what they were. If this picture is indeed applebottom jeans, I think they look horrible. Does the picture show a "proper" fit? me thinks it is not all that flattering.

After further research, I don't feel so bad about being out of touch

Evidently the jeans are a side project of Nelly's (did he have a hit after "Hot in herre?)

Plus, I don't subscribe to Mad Flava magazine..
