    Ah, I have a jean jacket and so does my DH.
    I consider it to be a classic. It's cropped and stylish. I wear it in the spring or early fall when I don't need something heavy.

    I wonder if that "skinny fit" will fit a guy who has muscular legs from cycling or just posers.

    it does strike me as odd that there isn't something like that for women.

    Pretty dark for commuting. I prefer something more visible. I do have a jean jacket. I got it at a thrift store. It's pretty cool. I always wanted one in high school but never got one. I always wanted a black leather motorcycle jacket, too. I still haven't gotten one of those...yet.

    Dude those skinny jeans are the jam. I ride in some women's 515s? that have spandex in them during the winter. Keep going Levi's I'm interested in what's happening here.

    Hah. I got a denim jacket from the farm store a few years ago. I wear it to protect my arms from brambles when I'm berrying or driving the mower. But it soaks up sweat just as you'd expect heavyweight cotton would, and I can't imagine doing anything very active in it. When I come back into the house I have to hang it on a peg to dry out ... there's no hanging it in the closet like that!

    Zoom-zoom, that s*cks. The Levi's jacket I had in high school was almost the opposite of your story. I'd embroidered mine, and when we moved away I traded it with a friend for her Lee jacket. I still have that one to remember her and those times by, though I don't wear it much any more.
