Re-demin-vention

Level Jeans makes our lower half our best half

Hundreds of years old yet still frolicking around the nether-regions of gorgeous, young men, American denim has a lot in common with gay icons like Sir Ian McKellen and Madonna. It’s no wonder then, that we gays value our denim, and follow the industry’s every turn and transformation.

Like our cherished divas, denim finds itself reinvented with each passing season. Trying to keep up wears us out, but thankfully Level Jeans make staying current a breeze.

True, Level is the fresh-faced twink of men’s denim, but like most newbies, it’s eager to please. The brand is the new division of the popular Level 99 women’s label (which we totally have never worn or anything…).

The pockets of Level’s first foray onto our masculine booties is subtle yet contemporary, a far cry from the heavily-embellished denim pockets from two years back (like True Religion’s). We prefer not having backside accoutrements puncturing our ass at every sitting, which might be a first.

Offered in about every color imaginable, the new line of denim will match any item a queen could possibly have hidden in his closet. Our favorite picks for spring/summer from Level are jeans conceived in colors appropriate for the sunny seasons, such as tea leaf, light blue, and khaki.

Louder colors of denim might still have a monopoly on the twink market. But, if we may conjure up Britney Spears for a moment, we’re not twinks, not yet chicken hawks. What’s a girl in the middle – a position we’ve only experienced unclothed – to do?

Again, following Britney’s lead, we’re to reinvent ourselves and keep the gays coming back for more. With Level Jeans’ help, we’re on our way.
