Quality Jeans for $100 thread UPDATED! Quality shades on the cheap?
I often make the transition from the office to play, so they need to be something stylish, but in expensive. The first brand that sticks out for me is Silvers, which are good, but I like to have a wide variety.
I have some William Rast, Sevens, True Religions.. but I'd rather keep those for the weekend, don't want to wear them out every day at work.
Any suggestions?
Updating this thread: lets shift our topic of discussion to shades!

I personally like Sevens. But then again, I'm not really into name brand stuff. I usually just wear GAP jeans... but of the better jeans I own (Seven or True Religion) I prefer Sevens.

I bought my first pair of Sevens last year. They are pretty damn comfortable. I would consider it to be my first pair of "expensive" jeans since high school. lol
Got it at an outlet when I was in Vegas. I will never buy local. $250+ is ridiculous. Usually I stick to my $30 Old Navy jeans.

Go shop in the USA.
I got a pair of Hugo BOSS jeans for around $100... but if you have a chance to get to Target, the Levi's shrink to fit jeans are around $40 and are an excellent looking and comfortable jean. Unfortunately, I think you can only get them at Target.

if you use them for play, then stay away from Buffalo... they fit nice, but they tear WAY to easily.
If you want a nice jean for the 100 dollar range, i would recommend Guess.

In my experience, my Diesel's have been the most comfortable brand I've worn. Plus they were on the tougher side, so they didn't rip as fast as the fancy brands.
The most comfortable ones though are the jeans that have that stretchy denim. That stuff can fit on fairly tight (if that's your thing) and you still feel like you're wearing sweatpants. You can't go wrong.

Right thanks guys.. I have sevens, diesels etc.. and I love them, they are super comfortable. What I am looking for is a step below those.. something that is about half the price ($100 or less) but still very comfortable and stylish enough to step out for an evening in. Basically the tier below the William Rasts, True Religions, Sevens etc..
Guess was a great suggestion I am looking at them right now, they have a few pairs for around $100.
I live in Saskatoon, if there are shops selling Sevens and Diesels for under $100 in Calgary, please let me know which ones so I can go there the next time I come in for a Flames game
That Outlet mall was garbage last time I was there.. I won't ever go back.

For $100.00, you best bets are outlets or, if you get lucky, Winners. Winners will often have brands like Diesel, Seven, TR, in teh $100.00 price range.

I usually buy buffalo jeans but I randomly walked into American Eagle a few weeks ago and picked up a pair of jeans for ~$50... I honestly like them better than most of my buffalo jeans. They were cheap, they look more than they are worth, and they are comfortable. May want to check them out.

Levi's are actually pretty comfortable too. They aren't quite the level of the higher end stuff, but they are much cheaper, and for the price, pretty damn good imo! I was shopping for jeans a few months ago, and after trying out some higher end stuff, I ended up buying the $75 pair of Levi's because I just liked them more, regardless of cost.

My AE jeans are really comfortable, but they lose their colour really quickly. They are basically a pair of white jeans now.

I went into some shop in Kensington, and the jeans started at $300. Who pays that much for jeans?

Any thoughts on Lucky?
I have a pair right now that I find really comfortable. I can't remember how much I paid for them, it was in the $100 range, but not sure if it was low 100s or high 100s

I'll second the Buffalo's. I have a pair of the "Drivens" and they are probably the most comfortable things that have ever swathed my loins with the exception of ...

I was coming in the suggest lucky. You can get pairs here for less than 100 bucks $89.00... very comfy , not as durable as your higher end denim though.
Also id suggest mek and bigstar. I have never worn mek but bigstars are decent for the price...

I once paid $350 for jeans.
Pretty ######ed move I must admit and I've never come even close since, but damn were those jeans comfortable. I wore them more or less every day for a good year, so in the end they did their job well.
