I am definitely a fuddy-duddy when it comes to purchasing jeans -

I expect them to be cut on-grain, have no holes in them, and no "bleaching"

I will buy "stone-washed" - but I expect the color to be fairly uniform over the whole pair of jeans.

Same here, I want my jeans whole, I can add the holes and the worn look myself.

Well that's a hoot. It's amazing what people come up with, and how much they charge for it. And even if I had my nice body from when I was younger, I'd want to be more covered up!

I saw those on "The Chew" today! They had a discussion about what odd sunburns you could get! The jeans were not well received. Horrid!
