I love my Jean Jacket. My wife always tries to throw it away but I hide it lol.
Sorry but I love it. I have not worn it in a long long time but I think the world might be ready for it now.

I almost bought parachute pants on ebay ;)

    Hell yes. Are you gonna put a Pearl Jam patch on the back? Personally I'd go with an Iron Maiden or Anthrax one, but that's your call. I don't know what the fashion police think of guys wearing jean jackets, but I know there's a ton of cute chicks around my office that wear them... not sure what that means but I thought I'd throw that in.

    I've already started wearing cuffed jeans and Vans again. No shit. Soon, I will get that Members Only jacket my parents never bought me when I was in junior high. Too expensive, they said.

    Vans are HUGE where I live. They never went out of style here. All my buds still wear them.

    Yeah, they are actually pretty big here too. I live in LA, so you know. But I was a fool. I stopped wearing them between like 1991 and 2007. Never again.

    Just don't wear it with your jeans.
    All those who seek to destroy the liberties of a democratic nation ought to know that war is the surest and shortest means to accomplish it.

    Denim jacket, is that what you mean?
    I thought denim jackets never went out of fashion, certainly not in England anyway.

    i have a jean jacket that i like alot, but never wear it because the only type of pants i wear is jeans.
  • TransplantedNewfTransplantedNewf Posts: 805
    There was some fashion dude on Oprah the other day and he said that the only jean jackets in style were white or really dark denim ones. No acid wash or faded look.

    If you don't rock a patch on the back of it, just throw it out. Not even worth breaking it out of the closet at that point.

    My cousin had a party and the theme was tube socks and fannie packs

    :)

    I used to rock the tube socks with the colored bands

    you're like 2,3 years behind on the 80s stuff.
    but I think you can always wear jean jackets.
