just because they're selvedge doesn't mean they're good quality (eg uniqlo, gap morrisson). the converse is also true (eg early ande whall, apc).

The denim itself is nothing special. I think the cut is also not very flattering. I wouldn't buy them.

Not a fan of the fit. It's too relaxed for my liking.

Who cares about quality when they're really ugly to begin with.

Way too relaxed -- they look "poofy." Is that what people are expected to wear nowadays? Oh lordy.

To OP: If you're looking for a cheap, raw jean, consider these instead? If you size them down, the legs get quite slim pretty fast.
