I hope this message finds you well! I recently embarked on a quest for new jeans after shedding 15 pounds. In my quest, I stumbled upon an advertisement for your brand, Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, which caters to women over 40. Now, at 45, I may not have formal training in psychology, marketing, or women’s studies, but I can confidently assert that women do not want to be reminded that they can’t fit into their daughters’ jeans. Seriously, why emphasize that?
Here’s the truth:
- We don’t want our daughters’ awkward crushes.
- We don’t want our daughters’ questionable fashion choices.
- We don’t want our daughters’ tight schedules.
- We don’t want our daughters’ strange obsessions with TikTok.
- We don’t want our daughters’ fast-food jobs.
But here’s the kicker: we do want to wear jeans that make us feel youthful and stylish! We want jeans that suggest, “Yep, I snagged these from the junior section and they fit perfectly!” Not some high-waisted, Lycra-laden monstrosity. If I were in your jeans and someone asked, “What brand are those?” I wouldn’t respond with, “Oh, these are Not My Daughter’s Jeans!”
At 45, I want jeans that shout: “I’m fabulous, and I know it!” Jeans that a partner can unfasten with ease, not a crowbar. I want pockets that can actually hold something meaningful—not just the number of my last massage appointment and a coupon for moisturizer.
I’m not sure how old you are, Mr. Thompson, but let me share a little secret: women over 40 still feel vibrant and sexy. I recently saw a tag on Lucky Brand jeans that read, “Lucky You,” which is a lovely little message for a potential unzipper. Let’s be honest, I can imagine the tag on Not Your Daughter’s Jeans saying something like, “Dry clean only. Hang with care. Store in a climate-controlled environment.”
It’s amusing that you include a note in your jeans stating: “NYDJ cannot be held responsible for any positive consequences that may arise due to your fabulous appearance in Tummy Tuck jeans.” I’m not sure what positive consequences you’re referring to here, but let me throw a few ideas out there:
- Getting flirted with by the retiree at the grocery store?
- Being asked if I need help finding the senior discount aisle?
- Wearing them for days because no one is eager to remove them?
While it may be too late for you to rename your brand, have you thought about names like Hot at Forty Jeans, or Not Your Mom’s Jeans? If you were running a denim line for men, would you ever consider names like My Dad Jeans or Not Even Close to My Youthful Self? I doubt it.
Sincerely,
Clara Jensen

In summary, while I appreciate the concept behind Not Your Daughter’s Jeans, I believe there’s a need for a fresh perspective that resonates with women over 40 who still want to feel young, sexy, and like they can wear jeans that flatter their figure without reminding them of their daughters.
