I Am A Jeans And A T-shirt Kind Of Girl

I was a teenager in the late 60s/early 70s and I remember the excitement when I was allowed my first pair of jeans. I was about 14 and my mother allowed me to choose which brand I would like and I remember picking a pair of Wranglers as they were very popular at the time and my best friend had a pair. The denim was so stiff when I first put them on I could hardly walk but I felt so proud when I met up with my friends in them.

Can you remember your first jeans?

I don't clearly remember my first pair. I was about 15 or 16 I think, and they were either Lee or Wrangler, a classic medium blue.

What I [i]do[/i] remember clearly is the pair of Black Levi 501s I bought Summer '87, age 22, on the recommendation of a female friend who was doing her best to make me look cool (and largely succeeded).

Oh my God I loved those jeans, and only stopped wearing them when they wore through at the crotch. I still have them at the back of a cupboard somewhere for the sentimental value.
