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, under the name of Al Quds Jeans, caters to Muslims seeking to stay comfortable while they pray.

The bagginess is to ensure the wearer avoids stiffness while bending down 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

    Pretty interesting… and pretty smart actually. I am sure both men and women would jump on this occasion… This way, they can keep on wearing the jeans, but they’d have the additional comfort. I wonder how the cut will be…
