I am going to talk about the blue jeans that I am wearing now. As you know, blue jeans are familiar clothes for us but many men, especially Japanese men are captivated by denim charms. I bough these three years ago and I have worn them constantly - and now, as you can see, they are cool. We call this phenomenon "aging".
Originaly, blue jeans were made for worker. However, it gradually become common clothes for everyone. Why did blue jeans become popular? I think "aging" is one factor. We usually dislike that aged clothes, but blue jeans shows thir true colors after aging. Normally, blue jeans are indigo blue at first but become light blue by wearing them. Especially, thighs, knees, back of knees and crotch become white because those areas are rubbed very often. The show a person's history. For example, someone who ride a bicycle often, has jeans with whiter butt. Someone who stoop down often for their work, has knee whiter. Basically, the same aging doesn't exist any where in the world.
As I told you, I have worn these blue jeans for three years. I went to Thailand in them. I was drunk and went into the water in them. I sat down on mudly ground in them. And now, I came to Toronto in them. Three years of my memory is carved into these blue jeans. I could even say that these are my history for the three years.
These may keep aging in future. I can't predict how they will turn out. That's why I am captivated by blue jeans.
Thank you.
