WHAT DOES BUMSTERS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

bumsters

Low-rise jeans

Low-rise jeans, worn by both men and women, are jeans intended to sit low on, or below, the hips. They are also called "lowcut jeans", "hipster jeans", and "lowriders". Usually they sit at least 8 centimetres lower than the belly button. Low-rise jeans have existed since the 1960s, but regained popularity in the 2000s. The "rise" of any jeans is determined by the distance between the crotch and the waist and is usually around 30 cm on regular pants. In comparison, the average measurement of low-rise jeans is roughly 20 cm, with some as little as 7–10 cm. Several jeans brands also reflect the rise on the zipper, by creating pants with zippers far shorter than regular pants, usually between 5 and 7 cm, and some manufacturers, such as Dorinha Jeans Wear, even provide 2.5 cm zippers. The latter can also be classified as "ultra low-rise jeans", and the small zipper no longer has its traditional function, but is rather a display of fashion.
