Drying your jeans

[yoga-like_abana]

Jeans are not very comfortable and look like crap on most people.  Stop wearing them and save yourselves the apparent headache of washing them.

QFT.  JFC, people.  You are college educated (or presumably soon to be) men.  Dress like it.  
Jeans are for cowboys and coal miners.

I dunno a pair of dark jeans with black dress shoes(non shiny kind) looks pretty snazzy on me, imo.

[pissclams]

layoff pops, I'm 14 yrs old.  people (cool ones), wear cool jeans, like the ed hardy jeans i showed you above.  don't u see Luis Colon when he wasn't allowed to suit up for games, ya thats what i thoght.

Dignity and self respect are cool at any age.

do denim overalls count?

[steve dave]

ummmm, jeans are rough ridin' elite.  You know who wears jeans?  Handsome models that smell great.  GTFOOMF with this anti-jeans old mannish talk. 

[Daddy Claxton]

OK.  Jeans are for cowboys, coal miners and photo shoots, so save your jeans for those purposes, and for mowing the lawn if you can't afford a lawn service.

Obviously the most self-respecting man in that photo is the one wearing the suit.  He is clearly thinking to himself, "Damn I'm successful.  Can't wait to ride out of here on my high horse and get back to my ivory tower.  These guys are losers."

When I'm rich I'm moving somewhere where I can wear shorts 365 days a year.  Can we all agree that shorts dominate pants?

  yeah, and either Nat Nast/Tommy Bahama bowling shirts or dirty t-shirts every day with those shorts.

the dude on the left is you, Daddy Claxton...

That hurts, man.     I wouldn't be caught dead in denim or plaid flannel.  I have no idea what that guy has in his hands, but it looks like lots of other people have probably touched it, so I certainly wouldn't put my hands on it. 

I guess it could say "doom" on the other side of that thing he's holding, which would make it likely that it is someone on this board, but certainly not me.  I've seen those people wearing "doom" shirts when they show the KSU crowd on TV, and trust me, that guy in the photo is Tom Selleck in comparison to the doom-shirt guys I've seen.

Tom Selleck wore jeans all the time on Magnum P.I.   also, the dude in the picture is Ray Acuff aka Daddy Claxton

What happens in Hawaii doesn't count.  Roy Acuff is not necessarily "Daddy Claxton".  Kudos to your cleverness, though--you were one step ahead of me. 

[pissclams]

get used to it   

[Daddy Claxton]

Whatever.  Go wear your "cool" jeans, you punk.

Jeans are a part of my daily attire.

Shorts rob a man of his dignity.  Khakis are ugly.  Suits are expensive (and overkill).  That leaves jeans.

Do you wear the metro belt that sometimes comes with them? The belt is worthless except for those shorts...

[Daddy Claxton]

Good grief.  Are any of you gainfully employed?  Embarassing for you, really.

[wELLsculptedbrows]

Kind of on a tangent, does anyone here have any experience with Levis 501 Shrink to Fits?

If so, is the recommended additional inch in the waist and three inches in the inseam about right?

[WillieWatanabe]

Dryer or air dry or drycleaning??

Had an argument with a dude. He said drying jeans in the dryer doesn't shrink them. I called bullshit...which is why i hang them up. what say you?

This was two dudes arguing?

some people actually care about their appearance

Oh yeah.  The belt will only work with said shorts.  It doesn't matter though because every pair basically comes with a belt.  

[pissclams]

i prefer the sansabelt jeans/shorts.  belts are passe.

oh my goodness yes. with flip flops also. not cheap ones from old navy though. also not super expensive leather ones that just scream "hey, i'm trying really hard over here!". just plain black flipflops w/ good thick cushion.

I get a new pair of black reefs every summer.  New Black Reef Pak is what I call it.

i'm pretty sure that i'm not supposed to be living in kansas.  cold weather where you have to wear shoes and socks and long pants and all that stuff.

Yeah, and long stretches when you can't golf.
