so this is the story
i’d wanted my pants wider, i got some money around christmas and bought a pair of wide leg Wales Bonner pants and some wide leg corduroys from a french brand called Uniforme. eventually I found myself wearing the WB pants constantly but they were white so I thought I should find a way to get a similar fitting pant but darker
one day i was walking home past tompkins and i ran into a friend skating in some acne jeans. i went home and did research and found the 1989. week later i was on holiday for spring break in paris to visit my aunt and my friends there, and made an investment to save money bc it used to be much cheaper in europe
anyway these jeans were even more extreme than my WB jeans and i loved them so much, but the denim quality was mid and the crotch blew out in like 8 months of just about daily wear excluding most of summer
but i used these as a base for trouser patterns many times and will never get rid of them for what they meant to me
