Tight-rolled jeans with rolled-down socks.
Also, aforementioned backwards clothes - even trained my Grandma to reply "jump, jump?" 😁

Tight rolled jeans were a fad? (Looks down at his tight rolled pants)

I don't know if or when it came back (there seems to be a 30 year cycle for fashion where everything old is new again) or if you are just your own individual who doesn't care if it's in, just doing it because you like it.

Or maybe you're rockabilly. Or too punk to care.

Or maybe I stopped noticing it and it never actually went out of fashion - it was me who went out of fashion!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
