I bet they're not slim at all. That being said, I like the concept. It would be cool if some true jean makers would experiment with it.

Honestly, I don't want them to be slim. I'm not looking for baggy jeans, but a more relaxed fit. Considering that they are wool, I wouldn't imagine it would be real comfortable with painted on jeans.

I like this concept a lot, and would want a pair if the fit is contemporary with a slimmer leg and lower rise.
