Cultural Tip

In Italian, "jeans" is always masculine plural, even though the word ends in –s. When you refer to a single pair you say "un paio di jeans". The adjective must match the plural form, so "comodi" (not "comodo") is required. Italians often use "comodo" for clothing, shoes, and even seats, but avoid using it for abstract concepts like "comodo tempo" (instead say "tempo piacevole").
