I haven't even heard of the brand until today.

I saw a pair of their jeans on a clearance rack for 39.99 originally 175.00.

Does anyone own a pair? Like them? Hate them? Etc.

Thanks in advance.

They're okay, as far as jeans go. Nothing too spectecular, but they're not worth more than $70-80 retailed. I actually kinda like them because there's nothing fancy about them.

So I didn't really get a deal at 40 bucks then? (in your opinion?) I'm not good with jeans. I can't pick them out for crap. I saw 40 bucks in the "designer" section, they had my size, they fit pretty well, so I grabbed them.

So let me just tell you what someone else is going to tell them ... they're perfect for you! If they are your size and you like the fit, then you're doing better than 50% of most 'designer' jeans customers.

Sounds like an okay deal if they fit you well.

I bought some off of jake and mabel a while back for $35 or whatever. Dark resin wash, denim isn't special but is soft, and the fit is ok but a bit loose for my tastes. I think I've worn them once or twice at the most.

They stretch like a motherfuck though.

I got a pair on clearance that where absolutely unbearable tight when I got them, now they look like some fubu styles...
