The World’s Largest Custom Jeans? Possibly…

Where can you find the world’s largest pair of custom jeans?

If you ask Croatia, they’ll direct you to their capital city of Zagreb, where the organizers of the Cockta Jeans Fabric Project have stitched together 8,023 pairs of donated jeans to create one giant custom jean with a 148 foot rise. That’s right - this pair of jeans is spread about 112 feet wide and is the size of about six tennis courts.

Why, you ask? Don’t worry, it was for a good cause! The project donated over $10,000 (seven kunas - or $1.30 - per donated pair of jeans) to a local charity which provides therapy to disabled people.

So, now that we know what the people in Croatia do with their old jeans (or just when they’re bored), we’re curious, what do you do with yours?
