If you thought 2018 would be safe from questionable denim trends, think again. After clear-knee mom jeans and clear plastic jeans, Topshop recently came out with yet another contentious piece of merchandise: the MOTO "Fake News" Slogan Straight Leg Jeans. According to the site's description, these pants will help you "make a statement," and you'll be able to do so for a mere £46.

While we assume that the vertical stripe is taking a jab at the Donald Trump's favourite phrase (it wouldn't be the first time it happened), some Twitter users have expressed concern over the fact that these slogans are being normalised and used to sell clothes. Read on to have a closer look at the jeans, and discover what people are saying about them on social media.
