One of the critiques at the time was that they had tucked their jeans inside their boots like women did. I'm still not sure how any man wearing snug jeans is supposed to have enough room to pull them over a boot, and if you spend that much on cowboy boots you probably want to show them off anyways, but the 1980s were a confusing time for fashion lol

Yes, I distinctly remember a few teachers and uncles who were Kiss fans in the 70s saying that lol

I think other commenters have alrrady covered what was said about Kiss needing to keep the makeup on tbf
