Default What kind of jeans should I get?

I'm looking for some nice jeans for christmas- what kind should I get? I am thinking about Diesel, Cavalli, Armani, etc. Does anyone have experience with these brands, or suggestions of other nice brands? thanks.

they are only jeans... they are cotton, usually some shade of blue... and last for under 2 years....

I'm preferable to eddie bauer on a 2/$50 sale...

^ that's not exactly true.

Gap jeans wear out so fast it's not even funny.

My Levi's jeans last far longer (like 4-5x longer) and also look good.

You're not suppose to play sports (ie: football, soccer, etc) in jeans. Stop doing that and they will last longer.

^ no, I'm serious. even just wearing Gap jeans to work and washing them regularly, the bottoms start to fray so quickly.

don't get Gap jeans. they absolutely suck.

My Gap jeans are lasting FOREVER! its been over a year and they look nice, a little faded but nice. Armani pants (slacks and jeans) are cut in a way that you would have to be a thin model.

^ you have to wash and wear them once in a while. otherwise yeah, they'll last a long time in your closet.

no... seriously. are the bottoms getting frayed? watch em, they will... (I've owned a good number of Gap jeans, but never again)

I like Timberland jeans the best. If you buy from their outlet stores the price is pretty good.

Armani jeans don't fit well at all.
