I saw a guy walking down the street with ball-peen hammers glued to his pants. I said to him "Hey punk, what's with the funny looking pants" and he said "I heard hammer pants were back in style. I didn't know what those were, so I made my own cause I like keeping up with the latest styles". Ok, that didn't actually happen lol I can't say as I've seen people wearing Parachute pants anymore.
Take a lesson from Tommy Davidson. Parachute Pants are dangerous! lol

Yep they're back! In the UK their official name is "drop-crotch pants".

This doesn't help much with "why", but yes, it is. Here's Psy with the Hammer at the 2012 American Music Awards.

Psy is also wearing hammerparachute pants (edit: Thanks, Mushroom!) in Gentleman. They've gotten just a little bit looser over the past 30 years.

I read this and immediately thought "Really bad polyester suit pants are back?"

Then I realized that the OP was talking about Parachute Pants.
Wow, did I feel silly after that.
