what kind of blue jeans do you wear and why? do you stick to a particular brand? do you prefer straight leg, relaxed or loose fit? it seems bootleg jeans are popular with the the young people these days. do you like a darker or lighter color?

i like the comfort of relaxed fit but i don't like their baggy look so i buy straight leg one size larger. i usually buy levis and i prefer a dark blue color.

how about you?

I don't own any jeans. Just some American Eagle painter pants which I suppose are similar to jeans in texture but I wouldn't consider them jeans.

I own just regular jeans, nothing fancy. Haven't worn them in years.

Why would I tell you ?

You wouldn't know the brand anyways.

I'm a sucker for H&M brand jeans. I'm a 30/32, and anywhere else, it's usually 34/36 and up. I also like the style they sell. But because they're expensive, (A pair for $40 and up) I don't own a lot of pants.

Mavi - softer denim, good cut, better looking then Diesel

Abercrombie when its more casual and I could care less if they get stained or ruined.

always boot cut

well, since we're rehashing old threads I'll just cut and paste my response from the last one. Thanks Ank.

--0--

Can't deal with the whole Gap/Old Navy/Abercrombie crowd....

Used to be a Diesel fan, have about ten pairs of those but the cuts have changed and really arent flattering anymore. Absolutely sold on Seven for all Mankind jeans now. Put on a pair of those (not the shitty knockoff that Express sells) and you'll hate buyin anything else. Random girls come up to me on the street and ask me what they are...can't hate that!

All told I've got:

10 Diesel
3 Energie/Miss Sixty
5 Seven for all Mankind
4 Versace
some random other pairs of esoteric foreign brands or small label designers.

all that said...I really don't wear jeans that much. used to.

--end--

oh yeah. One pair of Alexander McQueen.
