This look was achieved by the integration of specific features. Among them was the wearing of Levis 501, straight leg jeans. When wearing these jeans, the top button on the fly was left unbuttoned. This device changed the way the crotch region sat. The crotch and legs of these jeans were often deliberately aged, normally by wearing the jeans into a hot bath to allow the denim to shrink-fit tightly. While wet, the fabric was distressed by rubbing surface areas with pumice or sandpaper.
The clone torso was generally clad in a checked shirt, worn over a white t-shirt, singlet or the bare chest. This exposure of the bare chest became popular on the dance floors as disco, and later club music coincided with drug influenced party culture of the period.
