Farewell Summer - A Jort Story

After a very long summer break the fashion blog is back!!! For those of you who have been left clueless on what to wear over the summer I apologize but spending time outside in God's great country was deemed more important than fashion. With that said I did catch some delicious bass this summer. I would like to dedicate this blog post to my favorite pair of jorts (also my only pair).

My Jort Line

Jorts are the new black. And I think in fashion that means they are awesome. The beauty of jorts is that they are essentially free and super comfortable. It seems like every year you have to find a new favorite pair of jeans because after wearing them for 180 straight days in the fall/winter they have blowouts in the knees... You can patch them at this point and look silly or you can cut them off at the knee and have a new pair of jorts. I told you they were awesome.

Jorts have so many uses. I wear mine when mowing the lawn, lounging around, going for hikes, swimming, going on a hot date with my hot wife, and for fishing. There is pretty much nothing they can't do. They also are like jeans in that they go with anything. The best look in the summer is to go shirtless or with a tank top. For a hot date you can throw on a nice flannel. For footwear with your jorts I recommend tennis shoes.

As always when talking fashion we like to talk cost per use. Now if you buy a pair of jeans on sale at JCPenney for $20 and wear them for 170 out of the 180 days in fall/winter that is a cost of $0.12 per use. By turning them into jorts you can get another estimated 90 uses out of them in the Spring/Summer bringing your cost per use to under $0.08. That is pretty darn good.

After all the uses I have described above it is time to retire my current pair of jorts. The blowouts around the butt pocket are becoming harder and harder to contain. It is a sad day saying goodbye but next year I will get a brand new pair.

Again we apologize for the long layoff but we are getting ready to post many fall fashion tips.
