Seriously, I may buy some DKNY jeans next time I'm lookin'. Atari, you should sell life insurance.

Norma J 02.11.2007 06:39 PM

haha no. them jeans are too baggy for my likings.

Edited: Post in referrence to link.

"Gotta be a loose fit, has to be a lose fit".

Good song.

I like baggy. My favourite pair are by Drunkn Munky, but I have some Ben Sherman and Duffer that are cool. I only wear good makes, but I only buy them in charity shops or TK Maxx.

noumenal 02.11.2007 06:46 PM

My shoes are Ben Sherman.

Hip Priest 02.11.2007 06:48 PM

Are they good? I got a pair of Ben Sherman jeans in a charity shop and a pair in TK Maxx. THey are really very good indeed. I'd always assumed that Ben Sherman were the sort of make that I wouldn't like, for some reason.

They are really comfortable, and the velcro is really handy at the airport. People comment occasionally that they like them, but one of my students made fun of them once. The ratio of comments is on my side - about 5 to 1. OK, exactly 5 to 1. They are wacky, but I like wacky shoes. For example:


 


These are some of the new Ben Sherman shoes. I used to have some BS (snicker) pants, but I didn't like the fit - too tight in the ass. I have a fat ass and thighs.

I'm the same way, Hip Priest, and I'll always get some cool shirt, sweater, jacket or whatever I see in a thrift store.
Here are some brands I like though:
shirts: nautica, eddie bauer, polo, aeropostale, izod, ecko
pants: dkny, levi's, nautica, jnco, ecko
shoes: dr. martens, adidias, hilfiger, converse, new balance

All my clothes are TK MAxx or charity.

For shirts I really like Kangol.

I don't really have a preferred brand of trainers etc, but for boots it has to be Catterpillar. I've got four or five pairs (all cheap from TK Maxx). I don't know if you have Catterpillar in America.

atari 2600 02.11.2007 07:02 PM

Sure we do; Caterpillar are one of the few boots that are made in America. Maybe they aren't anymore. They make diesel engines and trucks and the big construction machines...bulldozers, lifters, earth-movers and shit too. Imagine that, I like Doc Martens which are made in the U.K. haha. I like a lot of the Martens shoes besides the boots too and have collected a few different pairs over the years.


Are(n't) your Cats made in USA?

Hip Priest 02.11.2007 07:04 PM

If Cats are American, then America makes the best boots. They're comfortable, look good and last forever. And they look cool enough to wear with t-shirt and jeans, but some of them can be used in a proper shirt situation. Which means I don't have to own a pair of proper smart shoes.

Well, it's not too far a stretch from Mavis heehe.

They've gotta be the most durable steel-toed ones. Like I was writing before, Caterpillar is into heavy industrial machinery as their main thing. I guess they may have ones without the steel toe too.

Chan Marshall takes her stage name from the old Caterpillar cap...Cat Power.
You can't see the word "power" clearly here, but all their caps used to have this patch on them:


 

finding nobody 02.11.2007 07:38 PM

I like my jeans tight enough to stay on me and loose enough for me to breathe. 34 x 32 or 36 x 32

Sonic Youth 37 02.11.2007 07:40 PM

Lee Dungarees, Low Rise. Dark color.

I'm 6'1", 125 pounds, so it is next to impossible to find jeans that fit me without looking like a baggin' saggin' wigger.

Edit: Me, my jeans, and my green Chucks

 


 

krastian 02.12.2007 12:34 AM

I still wear Silvertabs.....baggy fit.

ALIEN ANAL 02.12.2007 07:24 AM

my jeans size is 29, and its a pretty good fit, but the bottoms go in tighter, if they were the same size all the way down id be happy.

I still have a pair of those Levi's...one knee is ripped.

As for waist size, I'm taking 32-34 these days. I wore the 28, 29 and the 30 for many years.
Remember when Jerry Seinfeld scratched off his 31 and changed it to a 30 from vanity?

Prisstina 02.12.2007 05:03 PM

Me in a pair of my lovely Unionbays. Typical Bond-pose bitch.

I generally get mine from Plato's Closet. It's like a thrift store with brand names. It's hard to find jeans that fit. I mostly wear cordorouys from St. John's Bay. I have like 5 pairs of those motherfuckers. They come in Ultra-Tall.

atari 2600 02.12.2007 05:20 PM

I have so many pairs of cords...small cords, ones with large braidy-looking cords...like 4 different shades of khaki tan, darker brown ones, got some lighter blue and dark blue ones, black ones, some olive green ones green ones, dark green ones even.
All of them came from thrift stores, except for one of the khaki and the olive which, I confess, were K-Mart blue light specials hehee.
I used to have this vintage sears corduroy jacket that was boss-o-matic. I think I paid 20 or 30 for it in an "upscale" vintage store.
I had this roommate once that dubbed me with a Wild West name of "the Cordoroy Kid."

jon boy 02.13.2007 06:39 AM

i dont like shop measurements. i buy the same size in the same shop and one pair fits and the other doesnt.

ALIEN ANAL 02.13.2007 06:44 AM

im wearing size 32 and feel like a homie, they feel huge. My normal jeans i cant wear to work, to dirty, they are size 29

screamingskull 02.13.2007 06:54 AM

I mostly wear cheap H&M cord trousers
but i do like the levi's Blue 01041 Skinny Fit

jon boy 02.13.2007 09:56 AM

it seems that if i want jeans that fit me i must be forced to pay extra unless i am very lucky and find some that fit which is something hate doing. i am jealous of people who can suit anything. sometimes i have days when i find everything i want and its an absolute dream.

Norma J 02.14.2007 03:46 AM

I wear the same fit as the pics Screamingskull posted.
