Denim Work Jeans

[Lightspeed]

I used to be a Levis buyer, having worn them as a kid. I remember my first pair were so heavy that they stood up on their own and the store that sold them to my mother told her that if I wore them out or tore them in a year, they'd be replaced free of charge. A brave offer to have made, considering my reputation for destroying stuff. I think that in the end those jeans outlasted me...I grew out of them.

About ten years ago I realised that a. Levis prices in London were stupid and b. it was all but impossible to find a pair or normal 501s. nor indeed anything that had not been cosmetically enhanced with wear marks and designer holes. Kind of a change in brand values from my point of view. Levis lost a previously loyal customer.

Now I buy jeans from Asda, Tesco and the likes. Asda work jeans at a little over £5.00 per pair, are such good value that if they last me a few months they owe me nothing. Its barely worth putting them through the washing machine when they're dirty:-)
