You cannot wear blue jeans down Noble Street.

Status: Historical / Repealed

The Law Explained

In the early-to-mid 20th century, blue jeans were strictly considered dirty workwear for farmers and mechanics, not suitable for polite public society. The town's main commercial district wanted to project an image of wealth and respectability to visitors. Thus, they banned denim on their premier street to force citizens to dress up when heading into town.
