I challenge anybody to show me a man over that age that looks good in jeans.

Fuck, I just had deja vu.


Do I need to stop wearing jeans next year pookie when I turn 35? Will I instantly become uncool for being 35 and wearing jeans?

Not uncool. You'll just start the rapid descent to twatness.

maybe when you get to 35 you will realise how much of a twat you were when you were younger

Stone washed skinnies... ripped to shreds in obscene places...

I once had them torn down the whole of one leg during a crowd surfing incident and continued to wear them for days on end.

I like wearing baggy jeans...I know it's kind of lousy but that's just what I'm used to and I look like a cretin in tight pants. Right now I'm wearing these ones by Element:

that was the most disgusting thing to wear back then, i remember hating it.
now. i have seen people (with style) wearing them again and it looks from ok to good. its all about how you handle yourself, thats why i like how things are at the present- i feel that way from the 90ties and on.

yeah, they're coming back again, fortunately not as mom jeans and fringed denim jackets this time. they're still not the greatest decision one could make in the clothing department.

the 80s and 90s both were god-awful decades for fashion.

Black Levi's 511 Skinny are my favorite as of now but it seems like whenever I get a new pair I end up liking them much more than my previous favorite pair. Anyway, these fit great and make shit WORK.

Bluenotes slim washed-out charcol is my pic. I used to be a big fan of dickies, but lately I've been back into jeans

Those came back in the mid-90's already and they are the worst thing known to man and woman. Nobody, and I mean nobody manages not to look like either a rapist or, for the females, like someone who has too many children from too many different men in that thing.

what's interesting to me is that the 511 most fits my idea of what the original Levis cut should look like. Trim, tight, straight, tapered. I don't get that look from any other cut, not even with 501s or 505s. But the 511s conform to some notion I have about how Levis should look.

514s come close to this, but are just a little looser, like a 501s that haven't shrunk much.

511s seem really hard to find though. Only one store in my immediate area carries them, Kohl's. I bought a couple pair last week, went back to look for more, and they're practically wiped out, just odd sizes left. Hope they keep making these and that they become more widely available.

Do Diesel jeans really cost 200 bucks in the States or are you talking about a particular limited edition model?

Wow, they are really expensive.

yeah, it's ridiculous. On the other hand, if I were the child of millionaires, I'd spend my money there. Since I'm not, Levis are just as fine.

I've never seen any in the stores here, only online. Their stuff online is the 200-300 dollar range. I know though that even Levis has a limited edition line in the hundreds, so maybe that's just what I'm seeing.

Who would like to research this?

"dylan jeans"--ha ha ha.

Diesel also sells 50 dollar T-shirts. I buy Hanes when they're on sale 3 for 10 bucks.
