How do J.Crew jeans fit/feel? I'm looking for bootcut jeans for winter and like these http://www.jcrew.com/AST/Browse/Mens...9746/99746.jsp , but I want to make sure J.Crew jeans are worth the $96 price tag and that I wouldn't be better off buying something else.

Thanks

Jcrews denim sucks. For under $100, just stick with Levi's.

Alright that's what I was afraid of. I'm willing to spend more than $100... just not on ****** denim.

Wow $9? Is this in bulk? Thanks for the tip.

So I got the shawl collar cardigan.

It's probably my second favorite piece from J Crew ever. If you get a chance to see it in stores, there is a heather oatmeal version as well that looks nice but I really REALLY like the heather carbon.

If any of you guys were on the fence about it, I would recommend it. Mine is going to see a lot of use this fall.

Nope. This was earlier this year, so I am not sure if they are still there. They were listed as women's (actually unisex), but the sizing was men's.

Yup, it's in my cart. I'll probably order it soon.

Thin is nice on a hot summer day.

Softest tees I've ever worn.

Don't get me wrong- I'm not an Alt App whore, but for $9 each, they were well worth it. Plus they have a super slubby vintage look, which is hard to find.

I'd try 'em for $9. How's the length. That's my only complaint about the Jaspe's. They are too long.

zissou · Aug 29, 2009

Not that long. L is probably about 27"long and 22" wide, but they are super stretchy.
