      Basically they did Sneaker Culture for the things. Limited edition "drops", artificial scarcity, a big influencer campaign on TikTok and Instagram that pushed collecting them. Prior to that the only people who bought Stanleys were hikers and preppers who kept complaining about them not being as sturdy as they used to be.

        Was there a specific brand of pleather pants that people went crazy for? Because hopping onto a trendy style, I can understand. But going crazy over a specific brand that produces a nondescript mug is flabbergasting

        IDK fashion but I know nearly every woman under 50 around here has a winter "outfit" that is black leggings and some big puffy sweater or jacket. Jeans are a rare sight
