Citizens Versus Earnest Sewn

I had a torrid love affair with Citizens of Humanity. And it was so hot. So hot that the spark was still there even after I skidded across the floor in Grand Central's main concourse trying to catch a train, and my new jeans unceremoniously tore at the knee. What successfully smothered the flame altogether was when another pair ripped at the same spot while I was exuberantly jumping for joy after another consecutive win at Singstar Karaoke. And these are my knees. This isn't a matter of weight gain or motivational shopping. Good denim should simply wear well, retain its shape, and survive the result of multiple video game wins.
I fell deeply out of love with Citizens and into the open arms of Earnest Sewn. How I chose Earnest Sewn, I don't quite remember. It had something to do with Barneys and the Harlan cut making my ass look like 70 degrees on a February weekend in Chicago. This is unimportant. The thing is, Earnest Sewn jeans are made of steel. I'm doing squats and lunges as I type, yet the denim is still intact. It is milled in either Japan or Italy and later cut and assembled in the United States. The material itself is supple but strong, and the weight is closer to True Religion than Joe's Jeans (meaning it's heavier. Joe's Jeans are made of rice paper). The cut (Harlan is my personal favorite) is extremely flattering as well, and most of the washes are specifically chosen to give the illusion of longer legs. The only drawback that I can find with Earnest Sewn jeans is that the back pockets are placed a bit wide on the seat of the pants; for girls with hips that can't lie because they're too perfect for popping out babies, this makes the hips look even bigger.
Nevertheless, the trade-offs are worth it. I don't have $400 (including tax) worth of ragged and unworn Citizens sitting in my bureau, and if my hips seem a bit larger? I've heard that that's a turn-on.

Oh my darling oh my darling:
