All my life, I’ve been a jeans and t-shirt guy. For as long as I can remember, it has taken wild horses to get me dressed into anything else.
And yet, I am now spending the majority of my time in Manhattan, where it is currently summertime. The temperatures are easily reaching the upper 80s and above with high percentages of humidity, and has been leading to events that rhyme with stomp butt.
So how does one balance their sense of personal fashion with the desire not to carry the heaviness of sodden fabric around all the time?
Then, the eureka moment hit me – get jeans tattooed onto the lower half of my body. All the comfort of nudity with the style of denim.
But they’d have to be, at best, tattooed jeans from The Gap. I can’t have people thinking I’m pretentious.
