There are many fantastic and good things about jeans and denim for men. Ruggedly well-made jeans, made from wonderful and distinctive denim, classic and traditional styles. It’s hard to go wrong with denim, or is it? As a service to you, here are 5 jeans problems to avoid.
1. Logos
Name patch and a small tag, that’s all that’s required. Anything else is advertising and they’re not paying you to do that.
2. Extra pockets
5 is enough, its always been enough. If you start adding pockets they stop looking like jeans and just start to look a bit silly.
3. Rips
If you tear them by accident then use them for gardening. If they’re pre-ripped then you are paying for something that’s damaged, and it looks ridiculous.
4. No Space
If there isn’t any room between you and the denim then you’ve bought two sizes too small, or the wrong fit. It looks like you are wearing leggings. Which is fine if that’s what you want to do, but they’re not jeans any longer.
5. Fake fades
If you’ve worn the hell out of them and cultivated a nice fade then well done, they’ve become your constant companion. But if you buy them like that then its really obvious and again, you’re paying for the damage and jeans with a greatly reduced lifespan.
Hard to argue with any of the five. Michael, in the comment section, brings up an extremely valid sixth and given that those who sport them, really fancy themselves, I’d put them in first place for Jeans Faux Pas.
Large Turn-Ups. If you must; then no more than 15 mm.
No Michael, you are wrong. Verily large turn ups rock.
Oh man, don’t get me started on rips or large logos. Hate them, and wish they would just disappear. Glad it’s not just me lol
