Ludwigshafen (I usually hide these informations in the tags). That’s on the opposite side of Mannheim, in the Upper Rhine Valley, about 100km to the south of Frankfurt. It was a particularly murky day, close to sundown. It looks industrial, almost distopic but the chemical complex is surrounded by fruit and wine growing areas.

I googled them. In fairness there are photos of pale flares and darker flares, and even of stylish ones (the Flairs). They all looked good THEN.

I know, I had many a pair but alas the jeans I have I can’t find. I wouldn’t model them as they are a bit small now. But one day………….😂
