I didn't watch your video, but just Tuesday I was hanging out and a very attractive girl was there (not sure that's relevant to the story), but she was wearing the ripped jeans and I couldn't help but ask why...
"Because that's the style"
I'm sure over the years there have been enough other stupid trends (coonskin caps), but taking perfectly well made clothes and destroying them to wear, seems high on the kookie list.
Just my opinion, of course.
