We ALL have our favorite jeans. You know, the ones that show off our best assets.

Well, MY favorite pair has seen better days, and the holes that are near the crotch area are at the point where people are noticing. Not that I care, but when my 3 year old nephew was shocked and appalled when he saw the holes, I thought it was time I did something.

Up until today, I thought my only option was to go out and spend a crap load of money on a new pair. Not so. If I can tear myself away from my jeans for 2 weeks, I can ship them over to Denim Therapy. According to their site, they provide the best quality repair for any degree of worn, tattered or falling apart denim by reconstructing your jeans using the same or similar fabric. Nice! This is EXACTLY what I need.

All you have to do, is wash your jeans, fill out a form, and ship them out (not sure if you need to ship them if you live in NYC). They then inspect the damaged goods and give you an estimate. The site says that the estimated cost is $7 an inch. WHAT A DEAL! Your favorite jeans are worth a LOT more than that.

When I can go 2 weeks without my jeans, I’ll give it a try and let you know how the experience is. For now, you’ll all have to deal with the holes.
