Its taken me a long time to admit it but I have a wardrobe full of "gardening jeans" but only one pair that have any sort of stylised cut to them that I'd dare to wear on a night out.
Five minutes from Yeadon car boot, you have no excuse not to be wearing top-end designer or even Levi's at less than £5 a pop

This is a joke, right?
Underneath the ar.se jeans?
Harem pants?
I suggest you needn't worry!!

Yep, except mine didn't leave the manufacturers especially designed to have an arse hanging down around the knees, they just turned out like that after washing 100 times or so...

The biggest mistake anyone makes with jeans is laundering them too often. Denim is not meant to be stuffed in a washer and subject to all the vagaries of biological washing powder. The best thing for denim jeans is to "air-wash" them. Simply put them on the washing line and leave them for a week.

the hanging below the booty style is from american gang culture and apes the gang members in prison who are prohibited from wearing belts hence the falling down look.
I wear jeans every day including to work unless I am seeing a client. Im still waiting for jeans with the white piping to come back.

A pair of Levi 505's matched with Red Wing Beckman 9011's, a cowboy shirt and to top it off an Aero 1930's Halfbelt in four quarter horsehide or goat, depending on how I'm feeling. That's pretty much my standard wear for 6 months a year.
Although I'll soon be breaking out my collection of chino's for the summer, along with my A1 and A2 jacket's.
As for cheap jeans the best I've found are ASDA's stretch range. The sizes are all over the place so a measuring tape is essential. But for yard work, washing the car and other rather grubby activities there perfect.
You missed out the Dodge Pickup with a confederate flag bumper sticker.
