Whose "culture" is this?

But where does “sagging come from though”?

It comes from black parents historically being on the lowest rungs of the economic ladder and either buying their kids clothes that were 2 sizes too big because that one pair of jeans had to last for the next 2-3 years, and from wearing the hand-me-down clothes that belong to your older, bigger siblings.

Naw.
 
A lot of niggas who don't know what they're talking about or want to link sagging pants to homosexuality willl tell you that's how it started. Those people would be wrong.
Or maybe both can be true.

I remember back in the late 80’s first seeing that type of look being used by gang members.

I was told that was part of their “look”.

My point is, there can be multiple ways that look allegedly originated.
