Buckle.com has Lucky Jeans as does the Buckle Store. You can also find them all over the internet. I also really like Express Jeans -- those are really the only two brands I wear. I have/had some old AE/GAP Jeans that I still wear from time to time that were pretty good. Only thing about Lucky is the price, but they are very well made and look great. It is all whether or not you consider it to be worth it. Some people are happy with 25 dollar Levi's (which can be great jeans) and some are happy with other brands. Personal preference, and I just happened to stumble on Lucky purely by accident and since then I've been hooked.

I was under the impression Express men's was Structure? or is that no longer the case?

No, Structure turned into Express Men's.

If your looking for Abercrombie check Tj Maxx and Marshalls. I was just at Tj Maxx yesterday and they have loads of AF jeans with no tags. But if you look at the buttons there AF. For Lucky jeans check Nordstrom Rack they sell for about $30 a pop and they always have a large selection.

I like AE and Old Navy jeans. Definitely not designer but they are really comfortable.

There's this kid that moved to my town last year that never wore regular, loose fitting jeans, just tight-fitting Lucky jeans and everyone made fun of him because he looked a lot more metro than the kids that actually try to look metro.. everyone around here wears AE, Gap, Old Navy, etc jeans and had never actually seen a kid wear designer jeans.

Only problem with buying jeans sight unseen online is fit. Before you plop down $200 on a pair of jeans you want to make sure they fit right. Usually I try on the jeans I want at a local store then see if I can get them cheaper online.

guess and express. No way in hell im spending over 100 dollars on a pair of jeans. Only reason i spend 60 on Guess is because they just feel really good.

I don't see the point in designer jeans. I can understand designer dress shirts and pants and designer suits, but jeans are jeans to me. I was considered buying a pair of £5 Tesco jeans (<$10) when I was in London, figuring most Americans wouldn't realize Tescos was a market chain anyway. Unforunately, I couldn't find a Tescos that sold clothes (only food, haha).

I have $15 Old Navy jeans.

evisu and diesel are the designer jeans i wear. i may buy some sevens in the future. however, most of my jeans are dkny, which range from $40-$100.

i recently bought some evisu jeans online for i think $150 at nordstrom.com. the last pair before that was about $240 from revolveclothing.com.

My friend works at the Lucky outlet and can get me their jeans for $30. I never saw the draw behind them though, what's the difference between wearing Lucky and a different brand?

try them on, usually the fit is a lot better with a good pair of jeans. the workmanship is usually better too. cheap old navy jeans and pants that i've got recently damn near fall apart as i wear them.

agreed in that designer jeans fit wayyyyy better. old navy jeans. eh, they're fine, but they dont come close to stuff like 1969 and AX and diesel and even express when it comes to fitting.
