The Jeans


I am very much thankful to the western world, especially America, for popularising an amazing type of cloth in the world, i.e. Jeans or Denim. Though I respect Indian traditional cloths a lot, the pleasure of being in denims is unmatched.

The biggest advantage of jeans is that the use count doesn't appear on the clot. So you are free to wash it as and when you wish. Of course this doesn't mean that I am in favour of being dirty, but the jeans simply don't get dirty for a very long time. The second advantage is that neither you get bored of wearing it repeatedly, nor the people get bored to see you in the same jeans again and again. In fact I know a few people whom I haven't ever seen wearing any other type of trousers.

Jeans give a cool, stylish, casual type of appearance and at the same same time are very comfortable. Its the form of cotton that personally I would prefer over any other kind of fabric. A long lasting Gray coloured denim is my favourite sub-category in that.

Though I thanked Americans in initial lines, the Wiki gave some interesting information regarding jeans which is worth sharing here. Jeans initially emerged from the cities of Genoa, Italy and Nimes, France. The words “Jeans” and “Denim” are in fact derived from the names of these cities.

I have one memory from childhood about jeans. I was fond of jeans since I was a small kid. I used to like wearing a particular jeans, practically every day. When I was on the ship with dad, one fine day I irritated my mom and dad to the extreme level by shouting and crying for the cloth. My dad, who is always a calm person, lost his temper that day. I still remember the two red lights glowing in one of the dark machinery rooms on the ship, which helped him to frightened me and eventually calm me down. Today I can't stop myself from laughing at my silly behaviour and the silly thing that frightened me that day. Mom - dad I am sorry for being a bad child that day.
