    Default Blue Jean Questions

    Hey guys so yesterday I decided to go out to holt and get a nice couple pair of jeans:
    1 pair of diesels 350
    1 pair of rocks 315
    Up to this point i had mainly bought all my jeans at guess 100-200 so it was relatively new experience. Anyways...

    1)Are these normal prices? higher than normal ie. Holt generally more expensive than say leo, enzeki, underground, urban etc

    2)and can you return stuff from holt cause they pulled all the tags when i bought them? (may be having second thoughts after my impulse buy)

    3)what places have a good selection of jeans?

    4)Top 5 makes and models of jeans?

    those are pretty expensive for diesels what style did you get? is this after tax?
    theyre usually around 200-300 for diesels and rocks IIRC
    i usually buy sevens and they are typically around 250-300

    No, alot of Diesels cost that much....

    Umm, I noticed that Holt in that one mens section started ripping all the tags off..I thought it was kinda odd but then I never returned anything they did that to so it was ok..

    It should be ok to return as long as you really didn't do anything to them and stuff..

    Holt prices are pretty similar to other prices for jeans...and at least if they don't have a size there they'll bring one in for you.

    I think those prices are about right. I dont think Holt prices them any higher than they can be found at other stores from what Ive noticed

    ya about right usually rocks go for $250-350 depending on style and almost same with diesels. seven's are usually $220-300ish.

    if u want to keep the color of your jeans longer..after u buy em BEFORE washing first time soak em in lukewarm water "bath" with lots of salt in with the water overnight. works well.

    665 bucks on jeans?!??!

    I don't think I've spent that much on jeans in my whole life.

    MWW rules for jeans... like 40 bucks.

    665 bucks... that's a turbo, or a full exhaust...

    it came to 708 with tax im kinda regretting it but the fit great

    Whats MWW and ive already got a full exhaust/turbo

    I also find that when i buy a pair of jeans because they are a "good price" or "on sale". They are usually on sale for a reason. shitty fade and shittier fit. Pay 60-100 bucks and they end up sitting in my closet.

    That sounds about right. If you go to Leo check out Nudie jeans, I find I like them a lot better than Diesel. They are around the same price as well.

    I've returned stuff to Holt after removing the tags no prob, just keep your receipt.

    Like others have said, that looks about right for jeans.

    Holt is pretty good for taking products back as long as you have the receipt.

    I used to HATE jeans, after I got my first 2 pairs of Seven's (apparently buying 1 pair to start wasn't good enough) and I loved them so much I bougth 2 more pairs

    Top brands would probably be subjective... Citizens, Sevens, True Religions, Rock 'n Republics, Nudie's, etc are all pretty common.

    yea i bought a pair of diesels for 350 at vireo in marketmall as well as a pair of energies for 250. You didnt get ripped off, actually sort of cause if you really think about its just a pair of jeans for 350....

    1) The prices are normal... premium denim will usually run about the same prices anywhere you go, if they are the same style. Diesels may be as cheap as 250 or so and as high as 375, I've found. Rocks will start at around 265 and be as high as 425 I've found.

    2) Yes, with the receipt, unwashed

    3) Brooklyn in Kensington has a very nice variety of men's jeans: rocks, paper denim, earnest sewn, diesel, JL, nudies, antik. Urban in TD has tons of diesels, some TR and Rocks. Pusch in marketmall has tons of rocks, some coh and evisu I think.

    4) My top 5 would be, in no particular order:
    Rock & Republic, True Religion, Antik Denim, Diesel, citizens of humanity

    IMHO spending that much coin on a pair of jeans is retarded.

    why don't you leave the price tags on and display the tags when you go out so everyone can see how much you paid for your pants.

    well nobody asked for your opinion, he asked specific questions and wanted specific answers.

    no need to be a condescending dick just because you don't like designer denim jeans.

    Vineger works as well, do your first wash with a tablespoon of vinger helps hold the color!

    I once said that regardless of how much money I made I would never spend that much on jeans. Then my girl convinced me to but a pair and I found that you get what you pay for. I would rather have 3 pairs of rally great jeans than an unlimited amount of mediocre ones.
