It seems Heath Ledger wasn't content on letting women having all the fun with the [skinny jeans fashion trend](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spanxshape-authentic-360-denim). He sported a pair of very un-emo denim pants that appeared to be sprayed on. They were so tight, you could practically recognize the logo on his wallet!
