Jeans recommendations?

What kind of experiences have you guys had with denim brands IN GENERAL? I’m thinking along the lines of Diesel, Levi's, Wrangler, Lee... maybe even some of those boutique labels.

Hmm, that’s a tough one to answer. 🤷 I’ve tried a little bit of everything, but the last pair I picked up were Mustangs, and I have to say, I’m pretty happy with them. The price felt just right... 🙂

What are your favorites?

Diesel

Man, I can't even find any info on Oliver here.🙏😂

So, I've been sober from designer denim for a while now, but I still got maybe 30+ pairs sitting in my closet. I'll weigh in...

Lee and Wrangler—honestly, they have the best bang for your buck. Great quality, solid fits, tons of options, and the prices are killer. There was a time when I pretty much only wore them.

Mustang... meh. The cuts are kind of basic, quality is just okay. You might stumble upon a decent pair if you look hard enough, but I gave up searching for those ages ago. Overall? Nothing special.

Levi's... man, they're a disaster where I live. Quality is trash. Last time I picked up some 501s was maybe 5 or 6 years ago, and they fell apart after just a few washes. Haven't touched them since. Probably because of how local manufacturing went downhill.

Diesel... yeah, standard stuff. Really good jeans, great quality, and the fits are top-tier. They’re always dropping new stuff too, so shopping there stays interesting.
Truth is, their prices keep climbing, but I guess that's just life these days, right? I've never actually broken the bank for Diesel, though back in $500 when I was in Milan, I could snag first-line D&G, Versace, Dsquared2, and all that at the outlets...

Regarding those high-end brands, I think Versace has the best cuts, but D&G feels like it might be a bit higher quality for the same price. At least that's how it looks to me when I compare a few pieces I own. I guess time and wear will tell.

Hmm... I’ve always had a thing for a bit of a slim build...😁....preferably if they're wearing black.

love denim
and Scotch & Soda is my absolute favorite

Diesel 😍 is great. Quality stuff, sharp cuts, but the price... 😢

Here’s my latest pair. They’re beautiful. Most of my wardrobe is strictly skinny jeans—I can't stand baggy styles. I have a few pairs of the wider cut, but they just don't work for me. My legs are thin; skinny fits better.😍...Truth be told, I'm an addict when it comes to finding the perfect denim.

Take Two jeans are my absolute holy grail—once I finally bit the bullet and bought a pair, I was done. I honestly couldn't see myself ever wearing another brand again...

Wait, did you find those over at the Avenue Mall?🤷

Look, you’ve got options at both Walmart and Target, but let me tell you—the prices at Target are a bit steep compared to what I'm seeing elsewhere. Personally, I hit up the Walmart in Orlando because their sales are absolutely insane—and honestly, the prices there are almost half of what they charge in other cities. It’s a massive difference if you actually bother to look.

Diesel is honestly the only brand worth anything for me...😍
Every single piece I've ever picked up, I still have in my closet because they haven't aged a day since the moment I bought them. They're just built better, I guess...😁

So, my birthday is coming up pretty soon—I think it's next month—and I actually went ahead and put together a little wishlist. I sent it out to everyone via email just to make things easy...🙂
And honestly? Diesel trucks are sitting right at number one on that list.😍 🤣

I have to admit, those jeans from Levi's turned out to be surprisingly comfy and great to wear...👍

Miss Sixty is totally my vibe 😍

I'm right there with you because I've been loving them for years now.

I honestly went through such a rough patch with my sizing. I actually had to jump from a size 28 in jeans to something... well, larger 😲😕 — I’m definitely not going to say which size, though! !!!!!!
Right now, I guess my absolute favorites have to be Wrangler. They have these specific models with a slightly higher rise, and they just seem to fit me perfectly, which is such a relief!!!

— oh, and I should probably mention that the quality is just fantastic—they really have that soft, lived-in, wash-and-wear feel...

Plus, the price point is pretty reasonable too. 🙂

Same here, been wearing Miss Sixty for years.😁

I love Tommy Hilfiger and LTB tapered jeans, but Diesel is my absolute favorite. 😍

The only thing about Diesel is that you have to size up from your usual, and even then they're tight... their sizing is just way too small.
