Jeans reconsidered

We're only getting an $ 808.00 view. You would think that a company selling a $1,615 pair of jeans would at least show you the rear!

[tekla west]

$1,600+ for a pair of pants is not shopping, its an IQ test. Proving that a fool and their money will soon be parted.

[myMichelle]

I totally agree with Tekla (above.) But this just begs the question: Who in the hell could afford such a purchase in the first place?...obviously nobody living in my reality!

[Jasmine Ellis]

how much........Sorry, Jeans isn't me

[tekla west]

The same people who pay $400,000 to $500,000 for a new top of the line Benz, or get hotel suites at $2,000 a night. A co-worker of mine just got back from Santa Barbra where he spend a week setting up a wedding that cost close to $12 million (Yes, you read that right). Guess that bride was one heck of a piece of ***. Or she better be. Perhaps dad was just that happy to get her out of the house.

The rich are different I guess.

I don't even know the difference between $20 jeans and $100 jeans... can someone enlighten me?

[tekla west]

About 80 bucks.

I wear jeans sometimes when I go shopping but that pair, I don't think so. A girl can buy a lot of lingerie for that kind of money.

[GG Vanya]

IF I suddenly took leave of my senses and paid 1K for something, it damn sure wouldn't have worn spots/holes in it!

Vanya is not a label slave. I'm reminded of that song Redneck Girls: I don't have to wear expensive lingerie to make my man want me!

[tekla west]

True that, however cheep lingerie is its own punishment.

[Kimberly]

f that!!

buy a cheap pair of jeans and design something yourself on them... You shouldn't pay people to dirty your own jeans for you.

$100 jeans actually fit. In the case of the jeans featured here, that trim is gold - and the fit ... well, you can see the fit ...

That said ... it is ridiculous, bourgeois, evil and so on.

(Off to California, no computer, 'til Monday. Ta ta, ladies...)

I dunno, I'm sitting here in my $2.50 thrift shop size 14 jeans, and I gotta say, they fit terrific! Love and xxxx, Lily. P.S. Have a safe trip DayTripper and we'll see ya later.

Wow. All I have to say is wow. I thought $65 was highway robbery for jeans. I read an article about $200-$400 jeans at expensive boutique stores and I almost fell out of my chair. This is just unreasonable. This is the type of thing that makes me think I will buy up a few different pairs of Levis, then do a Katrina Original job (scissors, knives, maybe a few hits with some sharp pointy rocks) on them and sell them for $1000. This is nuts.

[Jennifer in CO]

whats even funnier is ...check out what they consider XL...a size 12!! Im sorry but to this frame a 12 might as well be a petite

Jenn....I ain't been a 12 for YEARS!!!

[Karren H]

Nahhh I still hate fem jeans, especially over priced ones!!

love Karren

[L.E.J.]

I LOOOOOOVE fem jeans, and if they are nice and inexpensive than that is just a bonus.

LOL, Katrina...when those male jeans with the shotgun pellet holes in them were so popular (and expensive) my sons were on your same wave length. They took some of their Levis and a 20 gauge down on the south forty. A few shots later, and voila! they were in style. They even had friends asking them to blast their jeans to smithereens for 'em! :D

[kathy gg]

Even if I was loaded or a recent lottery winner there is NO way in hell I would pay that much for jeans. I mean I have paid $120 for jeans, but that is pretty much my limit! Anything over that and what?? Do they wash my dishes...maybe there is a built in

I love womens jeans and pants but have to say I hate these, sorry but I really dont think they look good and hell for 1000 bucks they would have to have more than a crappy bit of gold draped over them. I do have a thing about designer as a whole in that they say it lasts longer, hmmmmmm doubtfull I have some 20 year old t shirts that a very servicable and I can tell you they were not expensive. As for the style thing if it has any that is questionable, because style should be what you like not what someone else says is OK, the industry makes darned sure it is not "stylish" the next day. I think 1000 bottles of beer would do much better.
Dont get ripped off by clothing snobs who are only there to take your money off you
