Another day, another indescribably odd jeans trend.

Lately we've seen butt rip jeans, thigh cut out jeans, and even £500 double jeans.

This time, the offender is Asos. The trend? A denim waistband that you're supposed to wear as some kind of belt. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Per the Asos website, it looks like the idea is to wear the denim waistband over a pair of differently coloured jeans. It's certainly a look.

Thankfully, this peculiar denim trend won't cost you £500. This denim belt will only set you back £18 ($23).

What will they think of next, eh?
