So I actually love these jeans and I was excited to wear them on a date with my wife. We were getting ready to walk out the door and she turns to me and says ... "are you going to wear those?" I should have left it alone but she thought they looked like the 1980s. Hmmm maybe she meant that I looked like I did in the 80s but probably not. I've been wearing them to work cause I like them and maybe they will come back : ))) Regardless they are very soft and comfortable and I feel like singing a little ditty about Jack and Diane every time I wear them.
