They're jeans, they're meant to get soiled then you wash them and brag about the stain...

Who's Jean and how did you get oil on her??

I'd keep this pair as a work pair and then spring for fresher threads to wear around.

I'll second the above reccomendation of brake cleaner with one important statement bolded.

NON-CHLORINATED brake cleaner. Works great on khakis, etc. Not quite as well on jeans, but still does okay.

I don't know... the S2000 kind of "Makes me want to Shout! Kick my hands up and Shout! come on now Shout!..."
