JEANS LONDON : It was a very frustrating experience and to my horror, I soon found myselfmaking notes on a piece of paper trying to keep track of which was which andwhat I did and didn't like. At one point a phone call was made to home for momto read the label of the pair we bought last night so we could attempt to findthat same style but in a new color. And at last we found it: "RedTab 517 MediumSlim Fit Junior Cut M 5." But apparently they don't make this in stone washedcolors. Only the hideous SilverTabs are in stone wash and they have stupidlybig bell bottoms.So defeated we went home and my brain throbs from the complexity of such asimple task. But I think it is all much too complicated and there should be atotal reconstruction of the system. Not just with Levis, but all the jeancompanies because they were all guilty of it! Tommy Hilfiger was the worstbecause from what I could tell, he charges $20 more for a bigger label on theass for the SAME pair of pants!
JEANS LONDON : ##MaidOdie: I'm going to start a thread and watch it die.ky mellie: Neat!ky mellie: Should I kill it by replying right away or just watch it whither onits own merits? :D##It's times like this I'm proud of having to shop strictly in big-n-tallsections--having to choose solely between really big denim jeans orreally big Dockers-style pants...and NO other choices...MST Info Club #94720. E-mail always welcome."The difference between the guy who's on the right track and the one who isn't,is that the latter will begrudge a person their success..." --Eddie Campbell, "Alec: How to Be an Artist".a quick FYI... Do you know what Tommy Hilfiger manufactures? ... absolutelynothing. The company is run entirely through licensing agreements. JockeyInternational makes Hilfiger underwear, Pepe Jeans London makes Hilfiger Jeans,Oxford makes the shirts, Stride Rite Corp. makes the footwear. So in essence,Tommy Hilfiger manufactures nothing.It's a good thing to think about next time you visit the mall and see thehundreds of walking billboards coming your way.
JEANS LONDON : "You get a big delight in every bite of Hostess Twinkies" To E-mail me, take out the trash.You know what I do when I shop? Let's say I need dress pants. I pick some dresspants that look okay. I try some on. Those that fit and are a decent price, Ibuy. People have got to stop obsessing over non-work clothes. There are moreimportant things in life, like seeing if there's a new Buffy novel in!-- Please reverse this & ask them not to cancel 'Lone Gunmen'.]-[ Please spay or neuter your pet ]-[Psst! Not all comics are meant for kids!Read some!] [ 5-24]You obviously don't get the e-mails from Old Navy/Gap that promotetheir new on-line jean-finder. Sadly, I coded a few of those HTMLmessages where they say they have over 1500 types of jeans availableon-line, as opposed to the 100 styles you can get in stores. Ofcourse, in the 1500 they count the many different styles and the manydifferent sizes, up to some insane number, like 80w x 50l, orsomething. It's all crap in the end.
JEANS LONDON : --Donovan Unks, but at least they gave me a free pair of khakis!CONFORM!Now Playing: Jonah's AlleySorry to snip everything, but didn't have a comment even though it wasan interesting post.Just wanted to add that Carol dragged me into a Saks Outlet the otherweek and found out there is, actually, something called a "dresst-shirt" and 80% of the ones they had there bore tags reading "dry-cleanonly." /JSH -- oh! and they were anywhere between 30-60 bucks. O_O"Everything beeps now." --George CarlinThe only solution is to quit your job/educational opportunities and make a fulltime career out of it. You could construct a database, release it to the publicvia Amazon, and sit back in your comfy sweatpants, watching the big bucks roll in.This whole jean business can be interpreted as a universal 'gaslight' experimentundertaken by evil overlords from NGC501 quadrant who covet our prime timetelevision programs and comedy movies. I say, let 'em have it all. Take it,please, and return us to the placid years of yesteryears where we spent twonanoseconds deciding between cotton twill painter's pants or the tulle ballgown.
JEANS LONDON : JeanFinds reasonable attire at Goodwill, at ridiculously low pricesTry *working* at a clothing store that sells all those brands. Of course I did that about 5 years ago, so we only had about 30 different styles, and red and orange tabs to deal with.Mmm. Goodwill. Is there anything more satisfying than seeing a sign telling you "all you can fit in a bag for $1"? I'm glad used clothing is going out of style again around here - pickings were starting to get slim.There are too many choices in the jeans section these day. Way too many.That's why I decided long ago to pick one "cut" and stick with it. I am a size14 average relaxed cut. They way I figure is, relaxed cut gives you the mostflexibility and my hight is unlikely to change (unless I happen to wander intoa hydrogen bomb test site, but that's another issue (2 points)). So, the onlythings left to contend with are size (which thankfully has been going *Down*for the first time in four years) and color.
