re: Your go-to blue jean brand?

Skinny jeans from Rue21. They allow me to sag and show off my favorite boxers while fashionably hugging my thighs.

Cinch green label

Wranglers. Good enough for George Strait

dunno what youre doing to tear up any pair of jeans in one to two years.

Just normal shite around the house/yard: cutting up down trees, spreading mulch, grilling, playing with my kids....I’ve ripped probably 6 pair of jeans in the past two years just squatting down to pick up something.

Read an article a few years ago that interviewed a jean company executive and he said people are washing their jeans way more than they should be.

Basically if they don't stink, don't wash them.

I wear jeans on basically every off-day I have. If I don't get them visibly dirty, I hang them over the back of a chair and put them on again. I used to wash them every day.

For those talking about it- yeah, jeans are my active and loungewear- I wear scrubs at work, a suit for funerals and weddings, and jeans otherwise

Brand- Levi's are generally my go-to brand, but then I'm early 50's and that's what we grew up on. They used to be made great- I have 2 older brothers, always got hand-me-downs growing up. Sometimes a knee would give out, but otherwise a lot of those jeans would still be in play, if I could still fit my gut into them
And keep in mind, some of those Levi's were "adult" size from high school and college... we had the big Designer Jeans craze then, everyone wanted Girbaud and Polo jeans in the 80's. The Levi's from that period still fit my son, in 30/30. (I stayed trim long enough to keep them until he was old enough, and they just never wore out. They're the most comfortable things in the dresser drawer).

Surprisingly, Arizona is showing to be good long-term quality, too. Got some that are going on a decade old, still fit the way they should, and aren't falling apart.

If jeans bother your balls, you have the wrong cut. That's what makes a good pair worth so much.

My favorite is Railcar.

Yeah I've never had this problem but I don't wear skinny jeans either. Just regular straight cut jeans.

Most of my clothes come from Academy, Duluth Trading for Tractor Supply. Will occasionally buy Columbia or Drake out on the town or from Amazon.

The "house brand" jean at TSC is very cheap and about the same quality as any other.

Don't Carhartt, they are a bunch or raging libs who don't care about freedom
