Al-Quds: Jeans for Muslims
They're high around the waist, wide around the leg and have lots of pockets for holding watches, bracelets, glasses and other knickknacks. A new line of jeans designed by a small company in northern Italy caters to Muslims seeking to stay comfortable while they pray. "As far as we know, we're the first, at least in Italy," said Luca Corradi, who designed Al Quds jeans. The bagginess is to ensure that the wearer avoids stiffness while bending repeatedly during prayers. The pockets are for holding all the accessories Muslims have to take off while they worship. And the jeans have green seams -- because green is the sacred color of Islam. # posted by masquerader @ 11:27 ::
