Morning Wood: Why Won’t Lee Jeans Get Out Of My Life?
Dec 4th, 2007 by Stamos
Lee Jeans. When you think of Lee Jeans, do you think of tough and rugged farm hands working on the railroad or the ranch, or do you think of a couple of good time boys yucking it up while frolicking down by the pond? For me, it’s nothing but the latter. Remember Buddy Lee? That dude was alright. Just a tough ass doll who fucked shit up and was loved by the ladies. He basically kicked ass a took names, and Lee Jeans were something you could almost be proud of.
Now we’ve got Brett Favre looking off safeties and floating in raindrops in some backyard game in Montana.
At the end of the day, there’s basically 3 categories of Jeans:
1- Expensive designer jeans like Diesel and … well Diesel’s the only one I know because Stamos isn’t the guy who throws down benjis on denim. I do, however, have a couple of perrty friends who pull, and Diesel is the name I’ve seen.
2- Standard jeans like Levi’s. Actually, I think Levi’s is the only one in this category. Back in the day, Mr, Strauss decided he was going to make relatively high quality jeans at relatively reasonable prices. And they’re still doin just fine. Maybe you could toss some other mid-grade companies in here like Guess or Banana Republic or something.
3- Cheapies like Rustler, who, I’m pretty sure, is K Mart’s in house brand. Look, some folks either can’t afford anything else, or have gotten to a point where they just don’t give a fuck any more. And for them, there’s Rustler.
See, and then there is Lee Jeans. Lee wants to think its right there with Levi’s, but it’s not. I mean, why the fuck are the guys in the Lee commercials not wearing belts? Don’t cowboys wear belts? Why is there so much physical contact between these grown men? Stamos, Brinson, Kyle, and The Piler certainly don’t sit around slapping each other’s backs on a Saturday afternoon. If they let these commercials run another 3 minutes, I’m pretty sure you’d see these Lee wearers biking out into the country to go see the Viva Viagra boys perform before heading to the hills to give each other the common courtesy of a reach-around.
So, in summary, go fuck yourself Lee Jeans.
