When good pants go bad...
|
What the hell are Levis playing at?
Can that really be the same brand responsible for 501s?

No, the new Levis are fine. You clearly have no idea what you are talking about. Touch that fabric. Sniff that crotch. Sniff it! Told you, pure quality there. You could ride horses all day in those.
And here are some men who really knew how to ride a horse...

| Levis have gone crap. Badly cut and ridiculously expensive. I recommend Ben Sherman 'Icon' jeans for a nicely cut cool straight leg.

I like a bit of Bootleg myself. A hint of flares. Hey, I am a child of the 70s!
501's were a pain though. Especially if you were drunk in a club and needed to urinate in a hurry. And then there was always the hassle of having to button the jeans back up after the drunken piss - trying to align the buttons with the correct holes. It always looked like you were playing with your pride and joy in front of a toilet attendant. No dignity in it at all.
Although they did do good TV ads in the 80s.
Duan, do you need a fashion correspondent at HP? My prices are high, but I'm worth it.

I'm a bit too old for a skinny fit jean but they are a good look.
The 'carrot' cut style that you see on chinos? Discuss.
I think they look like someone has shat themselves.
