Jean Report.
I think every American should own a pair of jeans. I own 2 pair. The
challenge for me and many others is finding a pair that not only looks
good, but feels good. I want style and comfortability.
I didn't realize that there were so many factors in selecting a good
pair of jeans. let's start off with a glossary of "jean"
terms.
