Fashion trends come and go all the time. Whether it's the go-to color of the season or the aesthetic that's popular, it can be hard to keep up with what's hot in the fashion world. And now, it appears that the latest trend is a little controversial: bootcut jeans.

<a id="09ba5eb2-cd0b-31f6-af56-df43f782d5f0" href="https://www.gq.com/story/bootcut-jeans-are-back-baby"> According to GQ </a> , bootcut jeans are officially making a comeback. In a piece written by Tyler Watamanuk, the magazine declares that bootcut jeans are being shown on the runway more often. Popular brand <a id="1b121508-693a-3f79-a1a7-f1e9aac6465b" href="https://www.balenciaga.com/us/men/denim#{%22ytosQuery%22:%22true%22,%22department%22:%22mndnm%22,%22gender%22:%22U%22,%22season%22:%22A,P,E%22,%22yurirulename%22:%22searchwithdepartmentgallery%22,%22agerange%22:%22adult%22,%22page%22:%221%22,%22productsPerPage%22:%2224%22,%22suggestion%22:%22false%22,%22facetsvalue%22:[],%22totalPages%22:%222%22,%22rsiUsed%22:%22false%22,%22totalItems%22:%2227%22,%22partialLoadedItems%22:%2224%22,%22itemsToLoadOnNextPage%22:%223%22,%22departments%22:[{%22id%22:%22mndnm%22,%22page%22:1}]}"> Balenciaga </a> featured them in their spring fashion lookbook, causing the stir up. Although no longer popular, Watamanuk points out that major fashion retailers haven't stopped making bootcut jeans over the years and so, the availability and opportunity to be "on trend" is there.

After the piece was published and posted on Twitter, many clapped back with their distaste for bootcut jeans, saying that they'll never turn back to the ways of the early 2000s.
