George Will is anti-blue jeans. I have a massive amount of respect for the guy, but I think his age is showing here. Blue jeans are simply the most comfortable, durable option in below-the-waist wear…and America has become a better place in accepting blue jeans in almost any situation. Michelle Malkin defends blue jeans here.

Is it too much to hope that the title of Will’s piece was “The Wrong Trousers”?
As someone who doesn’t own anything other than blue jeans, I think Will msy have a point. Blue jeans as a standard started during the 60s as the children of the elite needed a style that made clear their urgent solidarity with the “working class”. Now it’s become just another shabby party uniform, unless you happen to shovel manure for a living.
