It’s funny, the way that out of style clothes are perceived. You essentially have a 30 year cycle, where a style of clothing is fashionable for a decade and dated for two decades. “Mom jeans” are endlessly recycled, and kids do not have the same notions about how a mom dresses, unless you’re 30 years their senior.
Phrased another way, this joke is so dated that these jeans are actually cool again.

Dated just like your mom, who is probably a nice lady and deserves to find someone.
