Ah, the truly accessible sink…with like 10 distortion pedals under it for deciding how much toothpaste the garden would like, to treat the nice denim cellulose fibers with the toothpaste to wash away the colonial blue before putting it in the shrubs, and not least mellowing tanks -outside- the house. (And no ‘tap’ valve on greywater to mis-cue.)
No valves under the toilet? Will need to have a tile made up to hold the emergency bass clarinet.
Jubernetesc is a cool nym!

Very well, a denim utili-kilt it is.

Aren’t kilts traditionally wool? Oh no, now somebody will tell us that wool sheds microfibers too. I’m reminded of the song, “Everything Gives You Cancer”.
utilikilts are not traditional, they are cotton or a poly/cotton blend. Usually some variation of cotton twill usually more to a weight like khaki slacks than like denim blue jeans.

And I don’t even like the color orange.
They still can be found at secondhand stores, if you are willing to defy consumer conformity.
The excellent podcast Articles Of Interest did a story on jeans that was amazing. As you say, there is surprisingly little denim in modern jeans. A lot of Lycra and other things are added to make them more comfortable and fit better. Apparently we would all be very alarmed if we tried to wear actual OG raw denim jeans from the early days.
It also sounded like, if we’re worried about environmental impact of jeans, the stone washing process is the real concern. Apparently it’s not great planet-wise and all jeans go through it (even though companies stopped marketing on that point many years ago).
