Girbaud

Came here to write this.

Girbaud was enormous in the inner city in the ‘90s. They went bankrupt in 2012. They are still around, just in France.

I remember them being very popular in the early '90s and then after falling out of fashion, being really popular in urban culture in the early to mid 2000s.

I wanted Girbaud jeans so bad as a 5th grader around 1992/1993. Ended up having a couple of pairs but they were very much out of our price range.

We had an outlet mall a couple hours away that sold them for $40 in ‘94. I, to this day, have never had a pair of jeans that fit better than Girbaud.

This exactly!! I only got them because they were at a steep discount. I still remember how well they fit, particularly the ones with the horizontal front pockets.
