[Closed] Eeek - how much.....

matalan 😉

standard answer on here is chinos and a blazer !!

Showing your age, or at least that was what was said to me when I made the same discovery a couple of years ago - I thought 501's were less than £40...

Next?

Ha Rob - how's the build going? You'll be needing another name change now

The only pair of jeans I found that I liked were.......£110

And?

And?

It's a lot of money for a pair of jeans?

Meh! About what I'll pay most times unless T.K.Maxx has offers on. Being a rather skinny chap I find paying extra means I get a better fit and cut. They last bloody ages too.

Couldn't get to T.K.Maxx, so had to suffer Chesterfields finest array of chav boutiques.

To be fair it's a lot for clothing but it's one of my pleasures buying good clothes and shoes. It's like paying extra for tools, it's worth it if you use them enough.

Do men buy 'new outfits' for a birthday party?

And, moreover, is a pair of jeans really a suitable "outfit" for a birthday party? Especially a 30th....

Come on, chap. [url=]Smarten up a little. [/url]

I don't think I've ever even TOUCHED a £110 pair of jeans in my whole life. Most I can ever remember paying is about £35. Last pair were £9......

Mine were quite possibly £4 from Tescos.

Depends on the venue and company, surely? It's in the centre of Notts with a load of 30 somethings, who (men anyway) will all be wearing jeans.

I don't buy clothes very often, so was just ready - wouldn't buy an outfit especially for a do.

Make sure they match your handbag, Deirdre. 🙂

I like the Asda ones - they do both the kinds I like, blue and dark blue.

they better be raw selvedge denim for that.
or were they jeans northerners wear with pockets in funny places, fake rips and somewhere to affix your chain wallet?

Isn't that the going rate for decent jeans?

I've got a pair that were nearly £1k. Luckily I never paid that as I got them via eBay for a shade over £100.

Get a kilt. Many ladies find them irresistible (after a drink or 2), and you'll have some [i]uplifting[/i] experiences. 😆

i guess you can get away with those if you are 20, anyone 'middle aged' wearing jeans like that and white trainers needs to stop letting their mum dress them.

Funnily enough I went shopping yesterday (which I hate). No way was I going to buy some superdry jeans for £65. They looked pretty good, but superdry? Nothing says I'm a mindless douche like superdry etc.

Ended up spending £70ish in like topman or something for two pairs, which is the most I think I've spent on a pair of jeans (except for the waterproof alpkit ones, which were awesome). Happy with them though.

Don't see the point in spending over £50 on a pair of jeans, I've got a pair that were a tenner and look good, and a more expensive pair aren't going to be 5 times as good, or even twice as good, it's just stupid. Only ended up spending so much cause I was desperate for some new ones and I couldn't find anything much cheaper I liked.
