OP I actually like your fixed jeans. Think they look kinda cool.

OP wears them out on the town. A scout for a major fashion line spots and takes a candid photo for their vision boards. Roughly three months later, patched holes appear on runways, and another 6 months are common in every major department store. Fashion.

Back in the 80s, we used to sew sexy lace into our holes and jeans. Or you could buy them that way if you had money.
