SugarCane with the python patches is piff... The detailing on their denim is beautiful. I really really want a pair.

Somebody has to get a raw denim/selvege thread poppin.
From college when I bought mine. Went to a Denimbar-x-Styleforum party in Pentagon City VA and got them for incred cheap. Dude named Mauro Farinelli blessed the brehs that night. Got Canes (Self Edge and Sugar Cane collab) and Kicking Mules for $100 each

you seem knowledgeable, any go to brands you'd suggest?

copped my first pair of edwin jeans last year, i also have a pair of kicking mule and a pair of apc's, not sure what other brands are quality

RRL which is made by Ralph Lauren makes some great denim. I also like Raw Nudies.
Anything from Self Edge is Denim is going to be A1 in terms of quality.

I think I still have a old pair of APC petite standards in the closet... some basic shyt for $220. I've had them for 5 years as my only pair of jeans and at this point, it was worth the purchase because that's 5+ years that I have not bought a pair of jeans.
I think people are consumed with having a lot of stuff. Like if your wardrobe isn't 300+ pieces big, something is wrong with you. I don't have storage for a bunch of clothes so I only keep a few necessary pieces and they need to be of quality because they are in rotation more often. $30 jeans are cool when you have 10 pair, but if you're a 2-3 pair kind of person, quality jeans are a must and that comes with cost. Also the more expensive jeans have better replacement policies and more options for length customization. If your $200 pair of jeans rip or start to wear, the company is most likely going to send a replacement pair. You wear out your $30 levi's, you just take that L.

Broke people in here exposing themselves.

" why would I spend more than 30 dollars on a piece of clothing?"

Because the ones you're wearing had to be made in a sweatshop by little kids in poverty and of low quality for it to be even a little cheap.

I just spent $50 for a Champion hoodie that has the "C" logo on the chest as well as the wrist while I could have gotten the wrist only logo version for less than half of that. That s h i t will probably never get worn either.
where'd you get it :lupe:

Done it in the past with evisu and true religion, but I'll never do it again. Worst investment ever.

Nah, I'm good with Levi's and I don't go beyond $100.
this i remember when i copped a pair of evisu and red monkey jeans back in hs :francis: never again

So it's not really worth it if you're not going for the look. If you're just paying because of what logo is sewn on the pockets than boooooo
y'all saying dont wash them, fukk yall do when you have a stain or shyt starts to reek?

dry cleaning? cuz freezing can only do so much
I'm fukking dying at multiple people in here seriously saying I don't even wear jeans :russ::mjlol:

That shyt is funny as fukk
nikka it's possible in fact i was on that no jean tip last year. if i was chilling or doing nothing important i would rock sweats but if im going out with the homies then khakis, cargos, or chinos
Same. Jeans are for fat nikkas and UNICEF kids. :scust:

You can't wear them shyts if you have quads. :lift:
and it was for this reason i stopped fukkin with jeans
