Aeropostale and LRG Jeans for me.

Fotze wears size 29 jeans?

That's so cute, I didn't even know he was Filipino.

At first I thought this thread was going to be a bunch of girls talking about jeans. My initial excitement has definitely faded.

That said, Costco, because the combination of not being not young or old enough; and marriage has killed any desire to look trendy and replaced it purely with utility of clothes and not being fired for looking like a slob.

To the guy who said Buffalo jeans last a long time, I want to know what you're on. I had a pair and they lasted maybe 3 months before the holes everywhere made me retire them, everyone who I talk to who has worn buffalos has had issues with them getting holes really fast. I used to have a pair of nudies that I loved, but after ~3 trips through the was over the course of a year, they shrunk to much to be wearable. My Hollister jeans have lasted the longest and are in the best shape out of all my jeans.

Does anyone know anywhere where you can get a good deal on nudies/TRs?

Pretty sure that was me. Ironically i never had a pair of buffalo's, but my friend has had one for 2 years and still looks new.
As for nudies, every kind of raw denim shrinks, even sanforized ones. This is the first time i've heard anyone say anything good about hollister jeans too, but hey to each their own.

Oh and Urban in TD always has jeans on sale, mostly TR. they go even down to the 150-200 range. Nudies never go on sale, dont know why.

So are TR's considered ###### bag jeans these days? Like do I need to get a Tapout or Ed Hardy shirt with them?

[-TC-]

the last two pairs I bought were Hilfiger's..I wear them for work or when I'm wearing 'the uniform' (jeans, dress shirt, jacket, sometimes a tie)

I've also got a couple pairs of 501's for kicking around in and Stampede, as well as a pair of Gap 1969 straights

...pretty much got my jeans bases covered I think

day to day though, I mostly wear cargos for comfort and utility

Maybe this was already covered in that premium denim thread . Is there a brand that doesn't fall off you butt after 3 hours? Maybe this a more a female issue. I put them on so there a bit snug and they look and fit well.. Then soon I'm having to pull them up every 2 seconds.

I had a pair of 7s that seemed okay. I hesitate to spend money on jeans that fall off!

Buy a size too small. They should eventually stretch out to the size you want. Also, feel free to post pics for additional advice /creepiness

[missdpuck]

Thanks, blankall. I knew I was asking for that.

Guess I could consider a belt, huh. But that looks weird with the shirt hanging out over it.

Buffalo. Pretty nice comfortable jeans for about $110. Sevens are the best imo, but too expensive.

If only they had things called tailors. They could hem the pants for you!

In general, most stores in Canada will stock jeans with extremely long inseams. It's much easier to make a jean shorter than longer.

You and fotze might have the same problem. Ask him what he does.

Why are you washing raw denim 3 times over the course of a year? One wash in the first year, preferably at the end of that year, should be the max. If they start to smell put them in a freezer bag and throw them in the freezer overnight to kill bacteria.

Serious? I wash my jeans every time I wear them.

You can wash treated denim more often. If you wash raw denim too often you'll just ruin it.

Even my treated denim jeans I only wash once every 6 weeks or so.
