Lincoln is the often center of new trends and styles. A new one has just hit the closet of every teenager. The technique “cuffing pants” Elliot Nuss says is one of the newest.

“I started doing it in middle school,” he says, yet it didn’t catch everyone’s attention.

Senior Isabelle Szabo notes the slow start, too.

“I started doing it freshman year but it didn’t really catch on,”  she says.

The cuffed style stalled, but it had one more chance to thrive and it did.

This brings us to October 2013’s monumental homecoming. The class of 2017 freshman were entering a big world and they needed to leave their mark.

The theme was set in 80’s and a group of about 15 friends, including Evan Llewelyn and Carson Graham had walked with the “cuffs” and busted the moves.

“After that day it just stayed,” Graham says. Llewelyn had to add cuffing because it  seemed to complement other looks as well, including “fun socks” and “not ripping your pants when you’re skating.”

Once it was reintroduced, the seniors fell in love with the style. After the fashion role models of this school started rolling up cuffs, the rest of the students fell like dominoes. While this style still is enjoying it’s time in the sun, another pant is slowly coming into place.

“The new Nike or Adidas sweat pants that are tight around the ankles but loose towards the top,” says Elliot Nuss.

But whatever the new hot piece of clothing is. The high schooler will decide whether it should be on the top of the drawer or on the floor.
