Dear Colored Denim,

We tried to like you, we really did.  We wore you just like we would a classic pair of jeans, and it just didn’t work.  We like your 5-pocket look, but things just didn’t look like we thought they should.  It’s not you, it’s us.

Sincerely,

Ryan & Ben

Now that we’ve got that out of the way, it’s time to move on.  We really did want to like colored denim, but we just couldn’t do it.  Luckily for us, Vineyard Vines included some Five-Pocket Garment Dyed Pants in their latest collection.  These may be what we have been looking for all along.

Cut like your favorite pair of jeans, but made from soft cotton twill, the Vineyard Vines Five-Pocket Garment Dyed Pants are the perfect middle ground between denim and a pair of go to hell pants.  While we could see ourselves wearing any of the colors currently available, we think the first we’re going to go with is the Barbuda Green (shown). Paired with everything from a t-shirt and flip-flops, to a sport shirt and boatshoes, we have a feeling these pants are going to be quite the hit this Spring and Summer.
