I don't, but I'll try to explain. Back in the olden days (the late 80's ) it was not cool to have wide leg pants. Either you bought them tapered tight all the way down the leg or you pegged/folded/pinned them tight. You fold the hem of your jeans over to make them tight on your ankle. Then you start to roll them up. 2 or 3 rolls should do it. Sometimes they stay, other times you need to safety pin them. Absurd, I know. We looked like a bunch of assholes.

ACCKK! You take that back! Next thing you know you'll be predicting the return of stirrup pants!
