This week I did something out of character for me. I bought a pair of designer jeans. I’ve always been true to my Levis and have never strayed - even during the years when Brook Shields was going on about nothing coming between her and Calvin Kleins.
My grandpa wore Levis, my dad wore Levis, and my brother still wears Levis. This is how deep my Levis roots are. When I lived in the Bay Area, I went to the Levis headquarters in San Francisco to visit their museum…and of course drop off a resume
I don’t know what possessed me, but I tried on a pair of Lucky jeans, and hey, they looked pretty darn good. I looked at the tag and they were $98. Hmmm… not so bad, I’d seen worse price tags. So I took the plunge and bought them.
When I got home and started to take off all the tags I noticed this. What the heck does this mean? Those silly marketing people, as if they think they could really fool me.
Translation: MOM JEANS. Did they really have to mention that they are EASY FIT. MID RISE I can handle, but EASY FIT is in no way cool.
I already miss my Levis
