It turns out that Duluth Trading Company* is not recommending Men’s Ballroom Jeans for Viennese Waltz competitions.
Indeed, any doubts you may have about exactly what sort of ballroom they’re referring to are resolved by “How do you crouch without singing soprano?”
“Get a pair,” indeed.
On the other hand, don’t draw any smirking conclusions from “Fire Hose®” pockets. It’s the fabric that’s tough—“tougher than an angry beaver’s teeth,” in fact.
On the other other hand…

P.S. I wanted to title this post “Minnesota Naughty,” but it turns out that Duluth Trading company is based not in Duluth, MN, but in Belleville, WI. Foiled again.
On the other other hand…
Believe it, sweetums...
