A "rare standout" maybe, but certainly not a lone one - I also have never worn jeans. Actually, that's not quite true: back in the 1960s I did buy a pair, put them on and sat in a bath of cold water for hours to shrink them to skin tight, which is what everyone was doing at that time! However, I doubt if I ever wore them more than twice. I liked the skin-tight effect but he fabric did not suit me; the colour did not suit me - and being just another lemming did not suit me! So, out they went!

I took a huge gamble when ordering my 7yd denim kilt from KiltStore.net earlier this year, but the colour is not what I would call "denim blue" (so that's alright) and the fabric is quite different when made into a kilt! I love it.
