What brand of jeans do you own?

[RobDownSouth]

The little lovers spat this morning between 4est_4est_Trump and his beau Wat_Tyler showed how some folks are VERY particular about the jeans they wear.

What do YOU wear?

 

[BabblingBrooke]

Old Navy jeans for me, typically. I am not typically a brand loyal person with regards to clothing, but their jeans fit right and they are affordable.

Old Navy skinny jeans

Old Navy. Decent quality and a good price.

Depends on what I am doing.

Painting/gardening - ASDA (UK equivalent of Walmart). They're so cheap I can throw them away if I get too much paint/dirt on them.
Most of the time - Marks and Spencer
Sometimes - Sainsburys, Tescos.
Rarely - other fashion labels that come in Og sizes.

Had a pair of those once. They fit me extremely well.

Levis. Only Levis. Ever. A friend bought me a pair of $140.00 Lucky Brand jeans and I took them back and bought her dinner with the $$$$.

 

[subtle_Dom]

Levi's .. I didn't know there are any other brands.. I guess that I need to get out more.

 

[pollynova]

I didn't know the Levi's I got at walmart were a crappy version.

Useless fact about me no one cares about. I only wear black jeans, haven't worn a pair of blue jeans since I was old enough to buy my own clothes.

Usually Levi's on occasions, whatever's cheap when I know I'm going to be doing something crappy that's going to ruin them.

For the people here old enough to be teens in the eighties, remember how everyone-guys included-wore the skin tight Jordache or Calvin Klein jeans? I think Sergio Valente too.

I remember being over my high school girl friends house and we're going to her room and her sister's bedroom door is open and I glance in and she's on the bed with her stomach sucked in(and she was a thin girl as it was) trying to pull her zipper up with needle nosed pliers.

Levi's Button Fly 501's ...Just regular ole Jeans.

My first pair of jeans (early 1960s) were drainpipe Wranglers. I had to peel them off my legs. I loved them but they made me look ridiculous, particularly when combined with fashionable winkle-picker pointed shoes.

They cost me one third of a month's pay.

Hudson and Lucky.

Some eyes will roll, but they're comfortable as hell, and any jeans that get ladies to grab your ass earn high marks from me. Wrangler and Levi's offer increasingly good product, though - they've upped their game at an excellent value.

Shoes are the other area where I'll spend now. Prada and LV might seem on the ostentatious side (believe me, around these parts, they're mid-level), but some of the issues I had with my feet were cured just by significantly upgrading my footwear. And they seem to last damn near forever.

Problem I have with Prada/LV or any other fancy footwear is how narrow they are. Fat feet are not conducive to stylish foot gear.

And Lucky makes great gear, but I can get 2-3 pair of Levis that me just as well for the same price as a Luck pair.

Exclusively Gap denims, straight fit. Dark blues and indigos. I wore every brand accessible under $100 over the decades, these are the ones that fit most comfortably with an exact quality-to-price ratio. Two or three pairs were of the pricier "selvedge" style that was in vogue in the mid-aughts. Wore them shits to death.

Have a week's worth I alternate and a bunch of older ones with worn-out patches I kept around for lounging or drudge work sake, but I might Salvation Army those as I barely wear them. I'm too old for that ripped/open knee jeans revival. I need my threads neat. The only hip thing I'll do is cuff my indigos when I wear my oxblood Docs. Outside of the jeans, I have a indigo denim jacket about ten or so years old that's starting to show its wear but goes with everything. A bit too heavy for summertime, but it's perfect for fall-to-spring. I lovingly broke that in from stiffness, so I'll never get rid of it.

Back in high school during the late '80s, the brand you killed for was Guess and the denim style to rock were acid wash and overalls. I see those coming back amongst the hipster set now, but unless you're Betsey Johnson, I wouldn't touch those anymore.

At the moment Levis, but it's not like I'm loyal. There was a sale on.

True, they are not. You're generally having to sit down with a consultant for fancy footwear if your feet are wide, and that's bad news for Mr. Wallet.

 

[butters]

gap, m&s/per una, tu, fcuk, papaya, jason conran, levis - whatever was a nice fit and the right price when i got them, labels be damned

 

[Wings]

I wear Sevens, Silvers, or the Torrid brand jeans. I also buy cheap jeans with the inseam I need at Alloy.

Most brands say they supply tall or super tall and neither is true. I love the new boyfriend jean trend, that speaks to my body and I don't have to worry about their talls being actually for talls.

 

[Aquagal]

Levi's. I tried Wranglers once and was left with about 2 feet of extra length that no amount of hemming could make look good. I must get the 'good' Levi's because my Walmart has poor clothing choices so I never go there.

I never understood the whole concept of buying jeans that are already ripped. It just looks contrived.

 

[BotanyBoy]

Levis for normal wear, I do have some utility pants from Dickies and DCU/BDU's from the Army I use for doing fucked up shit I don't want to ruin my Levis with.

 

[ElizabethWest]

Talbots

Yep. I don't have problem dropping the coin but it's just such a fucking hassle that it's not worth it. To me.

 

[VaticanAssassin]

Bedazzled wranglers.

Florsheim dress shoes. Their W shoes are the only ones that fit well.
