Jeans

Post by Ziggy Sawdust »

I'm guessing a few of you on here wear them. Bit of a survey you could help me with:

How many pairs of jeans do you own?
Do you have a favourite brand and if so which?
How much do you usually spend on a pair?
What's the maximum you would spend on a pair?

Thanking you kindly

Jean Genie! I like it. There must be a jeans shop somewhere called that. Thank you chaps. Very useful. Can't believe Chopper Dave doesn't own a pair (oops - sounds a little bit rude)

Levi is our winner. I thought it would be.

I have one pair of black jeans in the wardrobe that I have not worn in years. Paid about £20.

Did you realize that because they are cotton based, they suck up water making them hellish to dry. It increases drying time in the machine by at least 25% which in turn increases electricity usage. Thus, your jeans cost you money as you wash them.

Yours might - mine don't. I think tumble dryers are mainly used by Americans. We have things called washing lines or a clothes horse which don't use any electricity. Tumble dryers are a luxury!
