American Apparel "Slim Slacks"

[ruach]

I saw cardigans at the Seattle/U District location tonight while passing by on a bus. I think I'm going to have to try going in tomorrow to try it on.

are these cardigans going to be available online, or wholesale?

looks pretty cool (and inexpensive), what's the composition of the material though?

[Double D]

Am I the only person who thinks that unless your name is Mick Jagger, Iggy Pop or an equivalent you really can't pull off bright red jeans?

[tweeds]

basically i figure all you need is personality, and a bit of thought about what you're doing with your colours.

especially the personality part though.

I think it's a kind of overexposure thing with me from associating with too many indie band types. Was lucky enough to support the Kooks at the London Astoria last night and I've never seen so many skinny jeans and mandigans such a small backstage area... Awesome gig though.

[einolu]

the cut looks very 'new standard'ish so they could be nice. might be very cool in black. but these are chinos right? not denim? not too interested in the cardigan because i like mine to be beefy and warm.

I purchased a pair today in Asphalt, I am a huge fan of AA, but at times question their quality control, however these jeans have exceeded my expectations. They paid a great deal of attention to details, I like em alot. Havent gotten a chance to really wear em, but when I pick up my digital camera I will snap a pic or two. They only come in one length which I believe is like 31-32 inch inseam and they are 97% cotton and 3% spandex/lycra, the fit is great. Skinny and low rise, not too low, but just right

[Bungee Man]

Why make the inseam so short? Annoying.

[ishboo]

im pretty sure they're denim...they call them jeans so i dunno what else they could be.

im probably going to get a pair for halloween.

[Double D]

Why make the inseam so short? Annoying.

They're unisex jeans and 32 is a regular length inseam?

[Bungee Man]

April 77 are unisex jeans too, and their inseams are longer. Having longer inseams makes more sense because people that need them shorter can get them hemmed. You can't add fabric if you need them longer.

[joanah]

Not a good look for everyone. If you're not skinny don't even think twice about purchasing a pair.

[Bungee Man]

I wonder when they will be online.

[BOORADLEY]

thats a load of shit.... why 32 inch inseams... ARGHHH

[mr fluffernutter]

They seem like they're pretty open to suggestions, why not comment on their blog or send them an email. You never know.

[chris]

guess i wont be buying a pair after all! i dont need bright, $80 CAPRIS.

[BOORADLEY]

They seem like they're pretty open to suggestions, why not comment on their blog or send them an email. You never know.

you know what? whatever. people are going to be jumping on that bandwagon so hard when it hits stores. id probably be better off staying away from it all anyways...

[cristeza]

$80...no thanks.

[Kodak]

When I was rreading the blog, they said they were open to suggestions. I'm in the same boat with Chris and a lot of other. So what I'm saying is if enough of us email them and comment on the blog maybe they wil give us 34inch and 36inch inseams.

[mr fluffernutter]

They're $80!? Whoa I was kind of hoping for a cheaper alternative to Cheap Monday ...

[Double D]

People complaining about $80 jeans? Bloody Yanks. Even crappy high street jeans cost $70-90 in the UK. With the exchange rates it's more economical for me to import an Abercrombie jumper than buy a high street one.

I bet they'll cost more in the London store too...

[mono14]

Just because shitty companies charge that much doesn't justify AA's prices...

In fact, clothes are way too expensive anyway. $200+ for a pair of jeans?

..but I buy them anyway.

[Double D]

a) You lot are spoilt by the price of everything from food to petrol to CDs. Grr.

Do you not think that a pair of jeans entirely produced in a factory in LA is going to be more expensive than a pair of jeans produced in Bangladesh or China? With AA you're paying for the peace of mind of knowing that you're paying those workers a decent living wage by US standards and not employing under-16s, which a hell of a lot of companies still turn a blind eye to when it comes to the third-party factories they contract.

[cultpop 0217]

i could do it

yeah me too.

i want to check out the silver ones.

[chris]

i saw them in silver, khaki, royal blue, and red yesterday. i didnt even bother trying them on. mainly because they looked like they had a twelve inch inseam, and because they were hardly tapered at all. and also, because i felt like i was being cruised by one of the employees wearing spandex hot shorts, and it was making me uncomfortable.

but i got one of the last cardigans. i got an x-small asphalt one. its nice, but it could be a few inches longer as well.

[koolaid]

Dunno if anyone caught this, but they have the cardigans and some sleeveless v-necks and other new stuff on the online site now. not my style, but i could dig the sleeveless hoodie
