Ring?WTF? Be nice.

I don't reckon I've ever uttered the word "jeans" in my life.

I used to wear Levis, 'til the management turned queer, then I switched to Wranglers.

Both of them are referred to as "britches".

And I keep a couple pair of new britches in the closet for town wear... medium starched and ironed from the laundry/dry cleaners in the County Seat.

Who sells "Texas Jeans"? Never heard of 'em.

Don't recall ever wearing ironed traditional jeans myself, regardless the brand.

I have worn ironed denim pants cut like dress slacks.

The few males I've known who made it a practice to always wear ironed jeans couldn't seem to pass by a mirror or for that matter any reflective surface without checking themselves out.

LOL..!! You're so cute when you're being authoritatively angry.

Heat and chemicals are what's used to break down denim. Why would someone intentionally reduce the life of thier jeans?
It's like wash8ng your truck with sandpaper.

I would have a hard time wearing anything with a set of horns stitched on 'em. Gig'em Ags.

There are still some places where if you showed up with your britches legs rolled up, you'd get throwed in the water trough. That would help 'em shrink up.

True dat. Could ringworm possibly be the other end of the Alaskan internet mogul?

If you think you may need to iron your jeans, those jeans aren't tight enough!

in the early days, when I was a teen, a lot of us thought we weren't properly attired unless our jeans had sharp creases in them. it was part of the countryboy look.

but we outgrowed that fad quick enough.

stonewashed jeans for a premium, now there's a product to buy stock in. like distressed wood for furntiture, it should cost more, because it cost more to produce.

khaki for this Southern Gentlemen, with Danners, please.

Back in the Old West as in the 19th century old west, no self respecting cowboy would be caught dead with creases in his jeans - it was the mark of a dude. Apparently their Levis came creased from the factory so the first thing they did was wash or soak them to get that crease out. Up through the 40's and 50's it was normal to cuff the jeans, both for cowboys, greasers and motorcycle gang members. I think cuffed jeans legs only went out with bell bottoms in the 60's.

I guess like hat styles, jean couture is a regional thing.

I try and stay away from places where grown men judge each other by thier pants cuffs...seems a bit pubecent if you ask me...tough guys,huh.
Eyefkin other men's wardrobe? How macho.

Now you're becoming seriously funny. LMAO.!!

That was my first thought.

Grease, the movie does come to mind, now that you mention it.

Harleys, Indians, and tough guys in cuffed jeans. I don't see a problem.

i work with a bunch of 20-ish nerds. you should see how they wear their jeans. skin tight and about half way up their calf. i schit you not, capri pants. with my carharts and dickies and wellington boots, i stick out like a sore thumb.

something just not quite right about that!

Keeps what's in there presentable... Not wrnkled either. 😜

Are you ready for this? Texas jeans are made and sold by...








The Texas Jean Co.
