All over the world, school officials are baffled by the current trend of baggy jeans accented by long, baggy T-shirts, which are blue, black, red or white.

Hems of T Shirts stretch well below the thigh, almost touching knees.
The baggy trend sprouted about three years ago and has since become the status quo among male students. The trend disturbs school officials, who complain of indiscipline from such students.
Solid colors, especially red and blue are affiliated with gang identities, according to the Web site www.Knowngangs.com.
Maha Ahmad, running apparel business in Elyria attributes the trend to rap icons.
He reveals that 5-foot-5' tall kids demand triple-X T-shirts to ape their favorite rappers.
