Speaking to Mashable previously, Jonathan Cheung, senior vice-president of Levi's Global Design said:
"Just as the 501 CT was inspired by girls wearing the 501 a little bit slouchy, the Wedgie is inspired by girls [who] were downsizing a vintage 505 and wearing it very close and almost vacuum-packed to the rear-ends — hence the affectionate and cheeky name".Although they're called 'Wedgie', the jeans company says this won't actually happen in real life as the cotton fabric stretches for comfort. Levi has a Wedgie style of jeans and given that this particular fit has been spotted on everyone from Kylie Jenner to Winona Ryder, you can see why they're so popular.
