Audio Story

Statement

Owner: My candidate is these jeans short and these Jeans shorts really saw all seasons. Eight years ago, it was used as a long pair of jeans, in winter and autumn. And after a long and significant life with a lot of adventures, it seemed that your job was done and life left its scars. But after a small accident on a bike, they were ripped and they had death scares, but fortunately Nonna Carla saw potential and she cut them and after a day of sewing, they had a new life and they were short. And today, after seven years of using them, quite often they are still in use. They can convince with a lot of adventures lived in summer and winter, and being on my side as a young teenage girl until today. And thinking that jeans is not always sustainable, my candidate can still be seen as a sustainable short because I bought them in middle school and since then they were my favourite shorts for fun days and new adventures.
