This is an all around great looking pair of dungarees, fellas. In my opinion the color is right, the fit is right and the fact that the edges are a little frayed save me the time and effort it takes to break in a stiff brand-spakin'-new ala 1981 pair, know what I'm sayin'?.

Thanks Lucky Brand Jeans! Go snag a pair of these babies (Straight Leg 165 Jean) for just shy of $115.

$1288 Jeans from Mastermind Japan - Are you kidding me?

Jeans for over $1000? For real? What planet are we on?

Let's hope that if you have that kind of dough to shell out for a pair of dungerees that you at least made a handful of charitable donations prior to your purchase.

Don't get me wrong, I do understand that it's not always appropriate to slap on a pair of Wranglers, but dang! So what if they have (and I quote)...

"High-rise waistline - Hidden buttons - Multipockets - Straight leg cut - Slashed detailing - Studs - Embroidered logo"...

... they also have a freaking hole in 'em and what I can only assume is overspray from a subway tagging gone horribly wrong.


You can get 5 Pair of expensive - but almost worth it - Diesel jeans for that price (or enough sale priced Gap jeans to keep you from having to do laundry for well over a month)

All I can say, is if you have these, or want these the money would be much better spent on therapy.

Good. Honest. Jeans. The Gap.

Gap jeans seem to be the best place to start this blog about men's Jeans. Not that there's anything wrong with a solid pair of Levi's - it's just that a pair from the Gap feels like a good introduction to taking that jeans-and-t shirt-look to the next level.

Always simple, always stylish Gap Jeans. Offered in just a handful of colors and styles it makes shopping easy. It's a guy thing. Lets make this easy.

Styles:

Standard Fit,Loose Fit, Boot Fit (Boot Cut, Easy Fit, Slim Straight, Low Rise Fit, Tolland, Hayes, Relaxed, Baggy.

Don't be scared. The good news, it once you find a style (or two), it's yours to keep.

Personally, I'm a boot cut or regular kind of guy .

They also come in a handful of colors and some great pre-worn looks. I have avoided light colored jeans since the 80's, but a good worn in looking pair can give you just the right contrast with a dark shirt without out feeling like you stepped in a time machine, or are wearing and over-coordinated, almost work-uniform type look.

Bonuses: Gap jeans are ...

reasonably priced (top end about $60)

Always have a pair or 2 on sale. ($29.99 or so)

Generously cut (I'm a comfortable 34 at the Gap - but my levi's should probably be a 36, I just refuse to give in)
