You only find those jeans used in thrift stores today. Designer jeans ceased production around 1985. You don't even see whitewashes anymore except in thrift stores. By the way,what do you mean by "Christmas ham"?
I love this ad but I only just now realized that her man at the bar in the red shirt at the beginning of this is as ugly as sin at 0:07. And what the hell is the guy to the model's right in the white shirt doing at 0:23?? What's with all the arms and bad jazz hands? He's not just rythmless, he's senseless!
I remember I saw this commercial while watching daytime TV back in the early 2000s- I thought the station had made a mistake! I knew it was old, but not late '70s old. It was funny because they were also showing an old Roll n' Roaster commercial as well so I didn't know what was going on.
I was just transfered to P.S.71 near Pelham Bay Park when this commercial aired on tv. At that school,my teacher Miss Wolf wore them and man,she looked real good in them.
The girl's hair is too busy. Then there's the guy who can't pour the beer (why not?). Then there's the allegedly chic photographer with a knitted cap like a longshoreman or a gang member (or a hired killer down by the docks). Then there's that "discreet" shot of the girl boogying, scrupulously filmed from the waist up. What could have thought was beneath the waistline in that last dance shot? A horse's body?
Yeah, Jordache is still in business and you can get their jeans now at Wal-Mart. It's kind of sad though; Jordache was such a high-end trendy status fashion brand back in the late 70s - early 80s.
Love, Love, Love it!! The Jordache style was so HOTT and so high fashion. I think they should bring back the Vintage pant, I think it would be huge! I would for sure buy a pair of Jordache Vintage style jeans . I remember getting Jordache on Hollywood Blvd in the late 70's early 80's, those were the best times.
I used to love these commercials . I am looking for a specific version of it I remember.. Just started going thru your videos ..Hope to find it! thanks for the memories!
Anyone remember the "JORDACHE BASICS" commercial where you had the Molly Ringwald type girl with a bunch of her friends saying with tears rolling down face, "I hate my mother - because she's so much more prettier than I am"?
See? Some commercials can stick even thirty years later. Egads! LOL
I love how dude overfills the glass...hey.. now a days these would be considered "MOM" jeans..eh? But back in the day when we where all a size 4 they looked awsome..ha ha ha
I guess everytime this commerical had its air time I payed attention to the girl. LOL
Wow. The commercial brought back memories. It was a really catchy commerical. I even bought a pair. Wore it every day until I wore holes. Then Levis came into style.
When I was a kid my parents were too cheap to buy me a pair of these, so I drew a picture of the small "Jordache" label that's in the back jeans pockets and taped them to my regular jeans! They looked ridiculous, not to mention that the tape came off.

@ebedgert Well, I was, like, 8 years-old so I don't think too much bravery is required to admit the stupid things we did at this age.
As for admitting that my parents were "too cheap" to buy these then-overpriced jeans, it paid of handsomely for them (no pun intended), as their frugality rewarded them with a net worth that now exceeds 4 million dollars. I guess I'm better off because of this now, too.
@ryuouji Sorry, dude. I TOTALLY misread what you wrote. For some reason (maybe I read it too fast?) I thought you said I lacked 'character'. I apologize.
@ejdf870 hey listen dont come here and whine about your shortcomings...just because they were too fuckin cheap to buy these for you or it wasnt in the budget doesnt mean that is why they have 4 million bucks. This sort of thing occured alot back then...your family probably all used the same bath water, sat around with the heat turned down to 60 degrees and wiped your asses with the local newspaper just to say you saved a few bucks. Life is way too short, if you want something go after it.
Song was written I believe by Leigh Crizoe but I can't remember where we recorded it - it might have been at a recording studio called BLANK TAPE STUDIOS in NYC.
@arhuxtable I worked on this commercial. I am one of the guys at the bar...we filmed it in an actual bar called Marco's on Lexington Ave. in New York City. I am heard singing at the end, (the jordache look) and the gal singing the lead was a short haired blonde gal who was nice to work with - we did this in Winter of '79 if memory serves me correctly.
That modeling and dancing girl was a passionate beauty also. Love that red lipstick. I would have loved to have that on my face and upper body.

Try to find someone today to fit into a pair of jeans like that. There either a christmas ham, or a lard ass.
