www.gq.com/story/the-best-jeans-under-100-dollars Seems like something you buy with little thought. They're just jeans. Well, not quite. Scaring anyone who thinks I am a fashionista. The site here starts with dungerees, or denim that just about anyone can buy. Brands you know. Some maybe new. The whole site covers the wide gamut of jeans that would not at first glance be known to many. Some are in the thousands of dollars. Japanese woven, 21oz. Yeah typical is 12 oz. Fashion is fun to explore. We all grew up with it. Have history with it. And even stories to tell about it. Fashion is who we are. It is everything from a favorite shirt, or trousers, pants, socks, and more. Clothes smoke allot of things for their wide dynamics, and taste. Different fabrics, patterns, and much much more. We are very selective what we buy, and what we see as an additional expression of ourselves, and the presentation to others. Me? It is easy, mostly utility pants or dungerees like Carhartt or whatever, and a polo shirt. Or my angler shirt. Or my Khaki shirt to celebrate some other person I dig. I am a fashion wreck, but still find fascinating the history,and the stories about what we chose, and why. Crazier than audio in many ways. Curious what will we look like in say, 200 years.

Curious what will we look like in say, 200 years. Well, what do we look like now compared to 122 years ago? Pretty much the same. So maybe the future won't be much different? Seventy years ago we thought the future would look like this . . . . . . . or this from fifty years ago . . . . . . or this from just a few years ago foretelling fashion In The Year 3000. I bought this in the past to wear into the future: AllAmericanClothing.com.

I just purchased several pair of Lee jeans off of Amazon, they look the same as they always have. The most astonishing thing is the fact that they fit correctly, just like my old tattered Lee jeans of the same size. Let's go back to the 60's Sear's Catalog and look at some of those fashions 🤣🤣

All I know is that everything is in the wash, and I have to wait…… Boo-hoo

A few years ago I was shopping for new jeans with the wife. She brought a pair of Jordache Jeans into the dressing room for me to try on. I did. I prepped her before coming out to get a good look and soak it in because she’ll never see me wearing them again. I looked and felt ridiculous. My Swedish Schoolboy body days are behind me. To this day I don’t think I’ve ever seen her laugh that hard. Took me just as long getting them off as putting them on. I’ll stick to my Levi’s with a t-shirt thank you.
