no way in hell I'm spending $100 for a pair of jeans.
Are there really people out there who pay that much for these?

75-100 bucks. Jeans last along time so spend some money to get good ones.

I wait and get mine on sale at department stores- usually for around 15 bucks.

if it were up to me, Id but the Old Navy $20 specials......but it's not....
everday price for Nautica jeans is $40 at Macys...........they are definitely better than the Levis, imo.

Heck, I thought $39 was expensive for the 20X Wranglers I wear...Actually, I usually pay $29 because they frequently do $10 rebates...

Wal-Mart sells some decent Wranglers for $14.50.

I pay $30-40 on both mine and SFIE's, unless I get a good deal (and I frequently wait for ON deals or buy online and wait for coupons . . .).

If you are paying over $50 for jeans, you're a fool.

The $100 jeans feel nice on, but I really don't understand why people spend the money on them either.
The most expensive pair I've bought was $60, and that was because they fit perfectly. They're a few years old and I still wear them.
Regularly $30 Old Navy jeans, sweetheart fit. :tu

I guess I'm the only guilty one, eh? I do rock the Member's Mark $11 pair at work, though.
The expensive jeans fit better, look better and last longer than most cheaper jeans, IMO.

I usually find mine on sale at Express or the Gap. I even find crazy sales at Macy's or Dillards for like under $20. Old Navy jeans are good. Right now I think there is a sale.

fock yeah. I rocked some silver ones and black ones......and there was only one kind of parachute pants brand to get......all others were knockoffs
problem with those though is that my mom only bought me two pairs so that when you wear them, they really stand out and if you wear the same pair in the same week, you can pretty much lose any kind of cool kid credit you may have built up.
with jeans, you can wear basically the same pair all week and nobody will notice.

I buy my jeans at Dillard's or Kohl's; on sale or not I won't pay more than $50. And for my kids I buy from anywhere, but they have never owned a $30 pair of jeans from me---that's what grandparents are for :spin

side note: yes, I actually have a $300 pair of Texas Tech boots....
....it's what happens when you get loaded out of your mind after a win over the #4 longhorns in 2002 and one of your old frat alumni buddies that is selling them convinces all the rest of the frat that it's a great idea.

I normally only spend 35-75 on jeans, but I have to admit, the few times I've spent more than that, I've found it to be worth the cost. I don't even wear jeans anymore. Tre Vero khakis FTW.

I'm willing to assume that the same guys that spend $100 and up on jeans are the same stupid douches that like to tuck in the front of their shirts into their pants to show off their even more stupidly large belt buckles.

It's all about the Maxx for jeans. You might have to go 15 times before you find a pair worth buying, but when you do it's like striking gold.

Some of it's ghetto as fuck, some of it's factory reject, some of it's unsold department store stuff that's just fine. That's why you have to go 15 times, but hell, if that's what it takes to get 70% off on a pair of $150 jeans I have no qualms about occasionally shopping there.
CuckingFunt
03-05-2009, 05:35 PM
It's very, very rare that I can get a pair of jeans that I don't have to have tailored or taken in at the waist, so I'm usually willing to invest big money in a pair that's going to last me a really long time. I am saved somewhat by the fact that I don't like really super trendy embellished/faded/torn jeans, which is where a lot of the outrageously expensive jeans are.

Man, f that.
I'd rather just pay full price then to waste my time searching for that 1 good pair.

I know what you mean. I always have to cut the pant leg shorter, on just about every pair of pants I buy.
I gues designers jsut assume that everyone has super long legs

so how much do you guys pay to get it re-align to ur fitting?
sabar
03-05-2009, 06:27 PM
$20-$30
They last a long time too. Relaxed fit, regular fit are like wearing tights and you can't even get change in the pockets.
Also all the jeans in san antonio are retarded sizes like 30 length 44 waist... I need like 32x32 - 32x34 depending on the brand and you can't find them. Everyone sells fat and short.
And the big and tall section is even worse. There is no tall, just big. It's made me consider just getting some designed and spending more but I'm cheap and would rather go to 30 different places until I find some that fit.
