So I was wondering: are there any companies offering colorful, raw denim that fits and will last a while? I'll push my luck: maybe they have 5-pocket cords as well? I really don't want to resort to vintage when a brand-new pair of STF jeans are apparently only worth $40-50 in the world of Levi's. One would hope that at a price like that variety existed *somewhere.*
I saw a vintage Wrangler ad in a book a few months back. If my memory serves, it was a bunch of kids in the '60s dancing while wearing jeans in blue, green, orange, and maroon. I haven't been able to get the image out of my head lately. I myself have a pair of Levi's STF in "tobacco" (more like mustard) and green; I love them both. Unfortunately, Levi's doesn't really seem to know which way to go with its STF offerings, though. My tobacco and green pairs seem to be about as good as it'll get for a while. They recently added a pair of "dark green" STF jeans to their line-up; they're olive green on the outside and black on the outside. The rivets and stitching are also black. I know the economy is bad, but are we living in World War Three now? In the dead of winter I might be inclined to wear such a bleak pair of jeans, but regularly? No, thanks.
