Nice, so you're one of those superficial fucks that judges everybody by what they wear. I bet you felt like an asshole when your Von Dutch trucker hat went out of style.

I don't wear trucker hats, I'm not a redneck like you. The amount of thought which goes into your comebacks is truly astonishing.

oh snap, calling a vietnamese guy a redneck!~

oh you are? Funny asians usually keep up the trend of high fashion. I guess I should stop assuming all asians are as high class as the japanese.

wow people think of the shit eaters as high class?

Casio, I usually ignore you but I have to know... Do you honestly believe your fancy designer jeans make you a better person?

Care to elaborate? Specifically how do they make you a better person?

$200 jeans is too much scratch for some denim. I can replace a tire on my truck for that price and get far more use and worth out of the tire.


good job billy, are you going to the rodeo show later tonight?

You sure are a pretentious asshole. Do you have any real friends and not ones who just think you are loaded?

learn 2 shop. i will never buy anything for retail price. it's stupid. that especially goes for buying cheap crap clothes just because they are cheap. have self control, shop at places like nordstrom rack and TJmaxx and you save $ and keep the quality stuff

You can find high end clothing at deep discounts at both ROSS and Big Lots. I buy only high quality shoes, but never pay more than $50 for them. You don't have to spend a mint to get high end quality clothing if you use a little common sense and exercise a little patience.

The idea on a lot of the higher priced clothing is to have it 'NOW' when it's hard to get, not when it's being blown out post season.

The majority of people never know the difference between last years and this years styles. Only a few pretentious stuck up assholes will even know the truth.

I've bought expensive jeans on sale, but never at regular price. Some good online retailers are Bluefly, Sierra Trading Post, Overstock and eBay (but watch for fakes).

It's not for the label (I look for jeans with clean/plain designs, such as Earnest Sewn or Paper Denim & Cloth) but for fit. If cheap jean makers could figure out how to cut a pair of jeans properly, they could clean up the market. There is a popular store in Japan called Uniqlo that sells good slim (but not nuthugging) jeans and pants for about $40-50, but they only have one store in the U.S., in NYC.

I only really wear jeans at work or when I'm hanging around the house, so no, there's no way I'd spend that much money for something that would probably just get trashed when I've got to crawl around the data center.

$60-70 is my usual cap for jeans.

I once paid $70 for a pair of work boots. That is by FAR the most expensive piece of clothing I've ever bought. I think the next closest was about $50 for a nice coat. I try to stick to less than $20 per item, and only buy the items I absolutely must have in order to accomplish a goal (like not being arrested for indecent exposure).

I hate wearing jeans, just dont feel comfortable in them. Much prefer khaki type pants in black or brown.

Why do I get this feeling, that this isn't the first time this thread has been posted. This topic has been discussed before on ATOT.

Jesus effing Christ, the people who need these jeans to create, justify and confirm their identity are tools.

This is coming from a guy who actually buys them (but I don't think as superficial) and advertises them to such people.

Same here. I don't think I've ever even seen jeans (knowingly anyway) that cost $200.

Who makes them, union workers getting $50/hr?

nope, Chinese kids making $.50 a week...

BAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!

:laugh:

The first one looks like it has been shat on and run over by a truck. The second looks like he has a corn cob up his ass it's so tight. (Maybe that's why you like it :Q). Not to mention the shoes that guy is wearing. The third looks like a pair that a 80's high school girl drew on.

Can you honestly tell me you pay that much for those? I would become a celibate eunuch if I knew that I had to wear those to get laid.

I don't even know where I would have to go if I wanted to buy a $200 pair of jeans.

What's funny is some will spend a multiple on a video card or CPU that is way overkill for their needs or some 'cool' light up RAM and not bat an eye.

I still fail to see the correlation between $$ jeans and getting a girlfriend.

There isn't one, at least not in my world.

KT

getting a girlfriend isn't hard...it's getting one others would want as a girlfriend too.

Why should that matter? You get the girlfriend YOU want; not one that someone else wants. You and Casio must not live your own lives...
