Seeking opinions on Levi's Red with the exaggerated stitching

10-second version: What do you all think of the Levi's Red jeans with the bright yellow piping along the sides? And the back pockets? Macy's had a sale and I picked up a pair of Levi's Red slim boot cut jeans. I love the fit but I'm not sold on the pockets and the exaggerated piping. The whole Levi's Red thing seems like it's ruining it. The branding is all about the red tag and the simple pocket and these go crazy with it. So, ladies and gents, put my mind at ease or put me in the car to return these things and find a boot cut somewhere outside the Red (or Silvertab... ewwww) line.

That's what Levi's Red is known for... It's not your oridinary denim =)

I for once, don't think this is a dealbreaker on this pair of jeans. Though the yellow stitching is apparent I don't feel it ruins the backpockets.

You should see other models, the ones with weird proportions or the models where they leave restmaterials e.g. onto the denim. Weird but sometimes in a lovely kind a way.

I have a pair of the Original Loose Rigid's with the suspenders. Not the jean I wear daily, but it does stand out in it's own way, though most people hate it. I don't =)
