Lucky jeans for me. I buy them at nordstroms rack where they are much more reasonably priced, $50 give or take. When a good pair of Levi's started costing more than $30 it was time to switch.

Lucky jeans for everyday, comfortable and durable enough. They also come in variety of styles and colors. For casual dress and going out I wear Kiton jeans, handmade and can't beat them.

He's a somewhat related question... Are jean jackets making a comeback? I have a great one from high school that still fits and is broken in perfectly. Would love to get to wear it again. Granted there are only 5 days a year one needs a jacket in Houston...

As long as you don't wear it with jeans, I say no problem...

It's one of these: "we're going to build a wall around those jeans" or "the jeans should make an appointment to see me through our foundation".

I am a Levi's wearer, but agree they are not what they used to be and have turned into crap. I am going to order a pair from this company and try them. Made in the USA in Tennessee and about 50 bucks for a pair. OP, maybe check out their site.

Gusset looks pretty good too!
I don't see any info on their material, so no selvage it seems. But they look like quality and I appreciate they are made in TN. |

Nope just lazy in the winter and active in the summer. Plus I make alot of food in the winter, and eat alot of meat. Meant to type 20 pounds but I move from a 30-33waist throughout the year most years since early high school. This past year its been much more stable though haven't moved from a 32 in almost a year.

Have you tried on 7 for all Mankind?
They have so many different cuts and for $250-$300 it's quality on par with the $600+ jeans. I still have a pair from 2007 that I just won't let go. My second suggestion would be Joes jeans. Very high quality for the $$$ |

After a working lifetime in a tuxedo and a uniform, I seldom wear long pants unless I'm going someplace where wearing shorts would embarrass my wife. Or when I'm riding my motorcycle.
When I do need to wear jeans, I wear these. Great quality, best price ever! http://www.costco.com/Kirkland-Signature-Men's-5-Pocket-Blue-Jean.product.100172605.html

Hell yea! But not with the same washes. light or dark jeans with my medium blue trucker jacket, don't go for a full one colour denim suit.

RRL is top of the line. Get the one wash selvedge. I'm over the pure raw denim stuff.

I was never into the pure raw denim and not even into RRL Once washed selvedge denim. Pre-distressed all the way for me. I prize the handwork/distressing that goes into these pieces. The cost is definitely justified. I don't wear denim enough to be able to accomplish this. Minor distressing and hand repairing is my style. Majorly destroyed pieces are not my style.

I find Dior Homme jeans to fit best on me. I also find APC Denim to be great bang per buck.
RO Denim and Balmain Biker jeans are great if you're going for an edgier look as well. |
