Location: Displaced Iowegian | I saw that yesterday morning.....apparently that suggestion is for the "city folks" that buy Levis to be "cool" and wouldn't DREAM of doing any work in them.....no way am I putting my jeans covered with horse poop and cow dung in with MY FOOD in the freezer (even in a plastic bag)......I do wash mine "inside out" to save some of the color. |

I remember either Ralph Lauren or Tommy Hilfiger saying this a few months ago... 
I think that was Tommy Hilfiger ....
Random Q but doesn't Ralph Lauren have a working Ranch in CO somewhere .... I thought I read that ... hmmmm
Also agree with others ... no way in H#LL am I spritzing with vodka ... and they sure as heck are not ending up in my freezer. Waste of vodka and freezer space. |

Location: Kansas | Just Plain Lucky - 2014-05-21 9:34 PM I am personally tired of the prissy foofoo kitty baby whiner jeans. "Oh, you have turn them inside out, wash them in the coolest of spring waters, soak them in the nectar of a thousand rare flowers, rinse with Mother Teresa's tears, and travel to the tallest mountain to dry. Seriously. Where are the jeans that I can wash normally, wear for at least a few years, and really work in?

| Haha I wonder if anyone at Wrangler or Cinch would make this suggestion. Plus I could think of a million and a half other reasons for Vodka and Vinegar (sepparately of course)  |

| Yesterday I had pig poo, turkey poo AND horse poo on my jeans. No way am I going to stick those things in the freezer next to the afore mentioned providers of the yummy pork and turkey.

I promise if I didn't wash our jeans they would stand by themselves by the end of the week, no freezer required.

Location: Do I hear Banjos? | Seriously...talk about living in another world. Ours need washing...period.
My other gripe gonna make me sound old. I cannot stand to pay $75 for jeans that already look worn out. Holes...scuffs..."wiskering"...whatever they call it...I hate it. I guess they feel they need to add "character" to them or something. Well...Mine tend to achieve that character naturally...by wearing them to do actual work. |

Location: where ever my L/Q trl is parked | Someone should email these idiots and tell them what the real world is like.... and maybe FedEx a couple pair of really well worn jeans, including bull, horse, pig, chicken and other unmentionable poop- so they can really get a idea what jeans are worn for. |

Location: In The Snow, AZ | I think one of you that castrate things and wallow in pig poo and cow shyt should perform the method of "cleaning". Then take a picture and send it to them, better yet, send the jeans. See what they have to say then. They will probably say it was because of "abnormal" jean usage. Yeahhhh..... because jeans are meant to be fashion statements. I forgot. |

That is the stupidest thing about jeans I have ever heard. |

I guess they feel they need to add "character" to them or something. Well...Mine tend to achieve that character naturally...by wearing them to do actual work.
Here, here, can I get an "Amen sista!"?
If I am paying for new jeans, I want them to be DARK blue! And of heavy weight material.... and REASONABLY priced! Without a bunch of froo-froo bling on the pockets to make my butt look *gasp* bigger!
I finally found a brand of jeans that actually fit me, without exposing my butt crack....the Rockies 5 pocket jeans. And go figure, they discontinued them. I bought I think, 15 pair at clearance price *yeah!*, but have no idea what I am going to do when I use them all up. I put patches on 3 pair a couple of weeks ago (am wearing them out in exactly the same place?!?), and use those for farm/ranch pants.
Going from heavy duty jeans that fit at a cost of $10-15 a pair, to light weight crappy jeans at astronomical prices..... perhaps I can stretch the ones I have to last me a few more decades and that they will outlast me.
As far as not washing them, I have exactly the same viewpoint as y'all. Not wash my jeans

They could have some great advertisement from this. "Wranglers-Made for mud, blood, dirt, sweat, poo, grease and get ready for this one- WASHING!
