Why guys struggle in the jeans department

It’s true. Jeans have made the paper again. Are we surprised? Of course not.  After all, we can’t blame journalists for wanting to write about America’s favorite piece of clothing.

This time, denim’s appearance in the news is a result of the difficulty men have finding jeans that fit and look good. Last week, The New York Times asked, “Why are blue jeans, that most blameless and universal item of apparel, the one thing men always get wrong?” Although I may offend some by saying this, let’s face it. It’s a good question.

Although jeans should be the easiest piece of clothing for men to wear correctly, they tend to make many mistakes in picking a cut and wash that is ooohh so wrong for their figure (and yes, men have figures too…). Sometimes forgetting that even the most simple clothing item can take a turn for the worst, the NYT’s article offers some simple sound advice to help men out of this denim crisis they didn’t even know they were in.

Bluntly put: “They have to fit your rear.” Hmm. If I didn’t know any better, it sounds like taking this advice and looking good in denim could be the easy as the click of a mouse on your favorite custom denim website…

For a little extra inspiration to help men find jeans that fit, we present…Harrison Ford (and that other guy). Everyone need’s a denim role model, right guys?
