What it says inside the jeans: "TECHNICALLY I DON'T KNOW ANYONE NAMED SALLY. OF COURSE ME AND EVERY OTHER AMERICAN BOY HAD A CRUSH ON SALLY FIELDS IN "SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT" BUT AS I SAT DOWN TO WRITE THIS I RALLIZED THAT I HAVE OFFICIALLY NEVER MET A PERSON NAMED SALLY. OUR SALLY, THE ONE YOU ARE ABOUT TO TRY ON CAME FROM OUR YOUTH. SHE WAS THE MAKE-BELIEVE GIRL WE USED TO GET EACH OTHER TO TRY STUFF. sALLY IS THE ONE WHO ENABLED US TO SHOOT EACH OTHER WITH BB GUNS IN SCHOOL. NOT MANY DAYS WENT BY WITHOUT THE TAUNT OF "SALLY WOULD DO IT." I WOULD SAY THAT WE OWE A LOT TO *THE GIRL*. WITHOUT HER THERE WOULD BE FAR LESS STORIES TO TELL SO THE NEXT TIME YOU HAVE TOUGH CHOICE TO MAKE OR A TOUGHJOB TO DO "TOUGHEN UP AND DONT BE A SALLY" OR DO...IT SEEMED TO HAVE OUT FOR US. "
Extra special detail: big, low pockets with scoopy stitch.
Price: $154
Both styles go on to say: "TAKE CARE OF THESE. YOU AREN'T SUPPOSED TO WASH JEANS. IF YOU WANT TO ANYWAY TURN THESE THINGS INSIDE OUT AND WASH WITH LUKE WARM WATER AND YOUR FAVORITE SHAMPOO. IF YOU WANT TO BE THAT PRETENTIOUS JEAN GUY, ONLY RINSE THESE IN THE OCEAN. THIS WORKS BEST AWAY FROM RUNOFFS ESPECIALLY AFTER A RAINSTORM. WASHING JEANS IS BAD. NOT AS BAD HOWEVER AS YOUR GIRLFRIEND NOT MAKEING OUT WITH YOU BECAUSE YOUR JEANS SMELL YOUR CALL. MADE IN THE USA JUST LIKE US"
I think BLACKBIRD is in love!
