I am capable of wearing out my own clothes. That's part of the fun. If I'm not sailing, my Nantucket reds don't fade. It's a fact of life.
I can wear holes in my own jeans. I can tear my own t-shirt, and put it through the wash so the colors bleed and the silkscreen fades. I don't need the manufacturer to do it for me so that hundreds of girls walk around like distressed clones.
It's stupid. I prefer my clothing not to be worn out when I buy it. Clothing should be intact when they are asking for money.

Hell yes -- one time I was in a store looking to buy some jeans. I was looking for Levi 569's because my old jeans were getting holes in them. I couldn't find non-pre-torn Levi 569's in the whole damned store. I was buying new jeans because my old ones had holes -- it didn't make sense to buy more jeans with holes in them.
Also, then they fall apart when you wash them. I sent some American Apparel t-shirts to Khaled (yeah, I know it serves me right) and when he took them to the laundromat ("la laverie") they turned funny colors and then dissolved. Jerks.
okay, this is only tangentially relevant, but where on earth did you manage to find nantucket reds for women that aren't cut like mom jeans? inquiring minds NEED to know.
