JEANS

idk abt salt water seems like a bit much

I am seriously upset about jeans these days.

I literally only have one pair that I like and I've bought about five over the last year that just did not work.

They're great out of the dryer but sag within an hour and then I have baggy ass which is NAGL! I am ready to spend some serious $$$ on jeans that will fit well, make my butt look good, and not lose their shape but I don't know where to start looking.

HALP.

madd @ jeans

I AM! This has been stressing me out for like a month. lol.

idk what fancy jeans are good for ladies i only know bro selvedge

:(

Who here knows about fancy lady jeans?

Well that would solve the baggy ass problem I suppose.

i have some apc i will vouch for them but idk if theyll make yr personal ass look cool

hahahahahaha

I will have to investigate these APCs for myself and find out.

they stretch out a lot so yr suposed to buy them super tight protip

and you cant really wash them so u pay for the privilege of being a disgusting slob m/l

hmmmmmmm interesting

You can't wash them as in . . . ever?

after a while you can wash them a lil maybe

raw denim is mad real

u have to be committed

apparently so!

gonna go read up on this raw non-washable denim brb

I went to the Levi's store. They have changed all the cuts and colors again so I can't just replace the ones I'm wearing, I have to buy something totally different this time. Bastards.

Went for the bold curve ankles again which are basically leggings with a zipper, which is fine.

u can look on ebay maybe for discontinued cuts if u need them

Hmmm maybe I should go to the Levis store. I think there's one downtown. I just need to go somewhere and be ready to try on all the jeans until I find THE ONES. I just hate clothes shopping so much. blah.

511s forever

by the way is there truth to the notion that levi's prices its american jeans so low as to lose money, and makes up for it with extortionate prices in the rest of the world? my anecdotal experience seems to back it up but i wonder if someone could bring the knowledge on this subject (i.e. STEVE SHASTA)

man hes IN ON IT dont u see

i am serios about my selvedge but the area around the inner thigh / back crotch is really worn, they r patched so nothing shows but i worry that it is still bad form to wear them

levis were pretty expensive in hong kong but so were a lot of american brands

With women's jeans, Levi's seem to offer each cut and color for like 2 seasons or something. Like, they have not made the 531 Low Skinny since the season when I first bought two pairs of them, which is a crying shame. I did just check ebay, which seems like it might be fruitful eventually.

I wore my busted up 531s into the store just now and the (also curvy) saleswoman was like "SHOW ME THOSE, WHAT??"

this just mean u r hardcore

dayo, all my jeans are patched, I have a drawer full of 6 pairs of jeans, 5 of which have blown-out thighs patched with varying materials/levels of success. I will now rotate out the saddest pair.

alright that's all the validation i need ... im gonna go for it

Levis drive me crazy with their changing styles all the time. Jeans shopping is so fraught! I wish I enjoyed it more but it stresses me out like swimwear shopping

I half-solved my Levi's shopping problem by not even trying to find anything myself. I grab the first female sales associate I find on my way in the door and pull up my shirt to show whatever Levi's I'm wearing and say, "Replace these. Bring me your shortest offerings" and we go from there.

ooh I like it!

Now that they have this whole Demi/Bold curve thing going, I say, bring me your shortest, curviest offerings. Today the cashier who rang me up called me her Bold sister. Retail is cool on rainy days when the staff are super bored.

fwiw, I like AG stevies.

The bolder-than-bold cut is the SUPREME cut iirc

you can trade in yr old apcs

that is so weird, dude

Can someone suggest a good pair of jeans for under, say, $120?

I like these fwiw but they're twice my budget.

there are no good jeans for less than $150

also what are those jeans you just posted a picture of

tell us about your size, too

those are Momotaros, got the image off blueowl.us. I'm 32 X 32

I like raw selvedge but maybe you're right about the price.

as an aside one of my favorite pairs ever was Paper Denim & Cloth about 10 years ago. Now I see their product in TJ Maxx and that shit is hideous. JEAN SELLOUTS, man.

some stuff on sale http://needsupply.com/mens/sale/denim

Unbranded has some raw selvedge for around $80.

are your thighs hefty, regular or slim?

i recall as a child the jeans my mom would buy me from fedco were marked hefty, regular, slim. i think they might have been wranglers.

r u husky, does yr mom sew yr initials into yr underwear
