Repurposing some jeans today and found this on the

Repurposing some jeans today and found this on the inside of one of the pockets. It reads: "the naked truth about denim... we love jeans, a passion we share with anyone who mourns a worn-out pair like the passing of a close friend. No fabric ages quite as beautifully as denim, the longer you wear your jeans the more character and attitude they acquire. You shape them like second skin. Jeans share the same soul and attitude found in the rock n roll scene, they're both part of the same culture. We'll always stay true to jeans. We're not looking for short term trends or fly-by-night fads; our inspiration is found far from the world of glamour and catwalks. We don't just offer jeans, we offer a way of thinking, a concept and an undying passion fuelled by the traditions of denim and the characteristics of the fabric itself."
Couldn't have said it better myself!
