Just like you, we are inspired by the unstructured, unplanned, and unintentional look for our denim pair. Distressed jeans for men and women have been identity-defining for decades and today, they are a fashion trend that seems to never fade.
In the late ’80s when the rock and alternate culture took over, the ripped denim jeans became the expression of the chaos and raw emotions manifested through this genre. Do you relate? We do too. It was an outlet important for that generation and has become a form of subtle expression today
Gen Z & millennials today have their own way of communicating through clothing. One of the most fashion-forward generations, we have access to a variety of options to put together the most interesting outfits using distressed jeans.
Without stereotyping, we want to give credit to the street and urban cultures that gave rise to and carry forward the distressed jeans culture. Every big city across the globe saw rising streetwear icons rocking a pair of distressed denim jeans, be it, men or women. Their swagger and unabashed coolness are what led to inspiring the world to wear distressed jeans as everyday wear.
American Eagle celebrates cultures that inspire fashion and introduces to our community multiple options to choose and create their own fashion aesthetic.
