Not usually to work. If "he" is in fact these things, a brand new pair gets a hole in it in less than a month.

Oh thank God I have to pitch them because of a hole or two when I'll probably rip the crotch out or the butt this week too.

By 6 months they are toast usually.

I'm sorry if you can not understand that what a 19 or 22 year old would want is different from what a 28, 32 or 47 year old woman would want....bottom line is ripped jeans on men are not "sexy" to most women over age 25.
Not true at all.

HE STILL HAS A JOB!

Not to me, no. Nor do I like them on women and I've never worn them, not even in the 60's. Never had a desire to look "poor".

And you are also trying to compare what grown women find attractive to what a 16, 17 or 18 year old girl would find attractive.

Why are you not able to see the difference?
Rico Suave, George Michael, Joey Lawrence, John Stamos... all HOT in their ripped Levis in the '90s, if you ask me! I wore them back then too, but then I was 20 years old and gay lol! (I'm still gay btw But don't wear ripped jeans).

No, I don't think it looks sexy at all. I think it looks like he's wearing old worn out clothes.

The fact that they are out of style and not trendy is all the more reason I will continue to wear them. I don't wear them everywhere, but if I'm going bar hopping, playing in my band, etc I will wear them. I've had an ex over 30 that loved them, while I had another that hated them. It's pretty hit or miss. With all the ridiculous looks and things people wear in public like birkentstocks or tucking a t-shirt into pants, I'd hardly lose sleep over it OP.
