Good brand. I have a pair, and my father does too; made in USA, looks like the color will fade when I wash them, so if you get these, do NOT wash them for several months (6+), let them wear in well, and when you wash them, they will take on a unique fade reflective of how YOU wear them. Good construction and material.

Not wash them for 6 months.... where do you live?

one of the sales representative told me that all their ladies clothes are hand made...not too sure if its true....and she told me that they have limited quantity on each and every item too, which make the brand and shirt unique....

In jean lovers land. Go read the Superfuture forums - that's how you're supposed to break in a pair of jeans. Obviously, you are supposed to have more than one pair, live in a more or less dry climate, and have nuts that don't sweat buckets ;)

A few of my friends are "jeans lovers" and I find it pretty ridiculous. More expensive up front, have to leave 'em dirty for a long time after which you get the lovely task of hand washing, and if you're lucky (pun?) the running ink didn't ruin any of your other (stupid expensive) clothes.

I'll stick with pre-washed jeans for $40, thanks. I've told them this, and they tell me that "I don't get it." They're right, I don't.

Yeah, I guess you don't. :) A good pair of jeans not only lasts literally half a lifetime, but it is just more pleasant to wear than the average Wrangler or Levis. I have never seen jeans ruin other clothing - obviously, you're supposed to take steps not to wash them together for the first few washes, etc. But, not everyone is willing to drop $100-$300 on jeans (and mind you, absolutely NOT all >$100 jeans are necessarily any good - plenty of trash like Taverniti - I've eBayed excellent selvage for under 50 bucks US, which is entirely acceptable, and I have Japanese selvage Edwins/Uniqlo that I picked up in Osaka/NY for ~$70 apiece, which is quite good, too).

I think you need to get yourself a pair that fits very well that is very good, and try it. If you still can't tell the difference, then I guess you're not a jeans person. :)

We were out at dinner with a bunch of people and one of the jeans people got seated at an end. Because of that seat, he spent more time with his arms/wrists/elbows resting on his thighs/knees as a result. When we got up to leave, we noticed that his white/cream sweater had been dyed purple from the denim. Not so good, that.

As for trying them out myself... there are two acute problems, beyond the preference for care and style. First, I'm cheap. I'm here to save a buck, aye? Second, I'm a fatty. I don't think they make those jeans in 40.

I keep wandering into the Lucky Brand jean stores in malls but I think I'll stop...everything seems ridiculously overpriced for what it is. So is the stuff supposed to be good quality then?

Looking at it.. it looks like it's in USD...

Hehe on the first day I got my pair of Sevens they started fading on my new pair of shoes that got that day too. So I washed them 6 times before I even wore them again. I didn't really notice too much of a difference of the fading.

OMG I don't get it...There is nothing wrong with a $15 Costco/Kirkland pair. I think every company has them made by some poor Guatemalan kids for pennies a day anyways...
Do they still even make Edwins...Those were gross 20 years ago, and probably still are now.

of course.

but you will notice a big difference.

when i first bought a pair of guess premium jean(~190)

it was REALLY different then my 50 dollar old navy jean. the seam was finished way nicer, the fabric, the feel, down the the lil details.

I don't know why posters here are hating on jean-lovers. I personally wouldn't pay more than $40 for jeans, but there's obviously a market for $300+ denim, too. If it's not denim, it'd be electronics or coffee makers -- everyone has their vice.

FWIW, I bought a pair of Lucky Jeans at the Bellingham (US) Costco for ~$32USD late last year (so it's possible they could return). I actually quite like them, but I can't say they were that much nicer than the American Eagle or Calvin Klein ones I picked-up on sale.

They ship only UPS to Canada so be prepared to pay additional fees.

was just in Chicago and saw many ppl wearing lucky brand jeans and they fit nice.

Rock & Republic + 7 for all mankind jeans > Lucky Brand though and of course more expensive.

R&R and 7 Jeans were $99 usd at Nordstrom Rack.

Thanks for sharing!

I gotta say, premium jeans really do stand out from cheap denim. Not that there are no good jeans that are less expensive - there are always exceptions that fit great and are super comfortable.

I bought a pair of Lucky Brand at Winners a few weeks ago, I had never heard of that brand before but I thought they looked great and they were really comfortable. I probably paid around $40-$50. While I love them, I wouldn't pay $100+ for any pair of jeans.

Thanks for sharing, but with the exchange rate, shipping prices, and possibility of UPS adding on extra fees, I had to pass - Saving 40% really isn't worth it, I'd rather go to the actual stores (and hope my size is on sale!)
