Nothing wrong with talking about quality of things.
But when the thread starts discussing the designer labels and ways of washing to get the best creases, then it just seems to be straying further into the fashion realm than I would have expected in a thread about jeans.
And I read this thread because I need a few new pairs of jean and wondered where to get a good quality pair for a decent price. I was a shocked at some of the prices being mentioned. I'm wondering if any of these jeans are worth $200+ or if they are charging lots of money for the label and I could get an equivalent pair for a much cheaper price?
And there is a world of difference talking about an expensive jersey that, when received, appears to be very different than what you thought was being purchased; and a thread about $200 jeans.
