Hole in your pants

When my beloved had been to the hairdresser, his grandfather always said, “to a ladies” hairdresser for sure.“ Paying for her not being completely short-cropped, he understood nothing of that. Grandpa is no longer alive, but something tells me he wouldn't have understood this jeans trend either. ”A h-o-l-e in your pants?! And you pay for that?”

As if he is standing next to me, I hear him say it. Now I could come up with stories about Jason Denham and Adriano Goldschmied, the perfect wash and the right tear. He would have found it all nonsense, but if I had worn one to our Sunday lunch, he would undoubtedly have said: ”That looks nice. And I’m not talking about the food.”
