They're not bad. The fit is decent, and the denim (though a lot of it is stretch, and therefore not my thing) is decent as welll (I see Brian jumping over the couter at me now). Probably not for the denim geek, but unless you can't live with yourself unless you are wearing Japanese selvedge Levi's repros, who cares. Try them on (they are not ubiquitous, but not hard to find either), and tell us what you think.
