You know what the perfect pair of jeans needs? Pieces of transparent plastic covering the kneecaps, said no-one, ever.
And yet, here we are:

Designed by Topshop and currently available from US department store Nordstrom for $AU134, the jeans are just like normal, high-rise mom jeans โ but with a very clear (pardon the pun) twist.
Are they designed to be the warm winter version of the heavily ripped jeans Kendall Jenner and co. favour? Are they a nod to the see-through shoe trend? Will we all be wearing them this season?

If the scathing Twitter response is anything to go by, probably not:
These are actual jeans you can buy at @Nordstrom that cost $95.
