most over-rated jeans

[cant_sleep]

list jeans that are pricey, but are just overrated in terms of actual quality

[MilSpex]

I dont know if they`re expensive or not but I dont get Nudies. I just dont get it...

Be Advised: Morgan Nixon AKA Moman631 AKA Moman6040 is a fraud.

[cant_sleep]

ive never seen those in person so i dunno, i think lucky brand could shave 10 or 20 bucks off their prices. theyre not THAT good. those guys overcharge everything in their store

[cant_sleep]

i dunno if theyre quality or not, but i really hate the huge back pocket design on evisus. i mean damn, you can see it from a mile away.

[cultpop 0217]

PRPS......

are they having a laugh!?!?!?!?

I tried a pair on and they were like clown trousers, never seen such a shapeless pair of jeans before.

all the washes look like a boy band's wardrobe, and best of all they're almost £300!!!!!

absolute joke.

[350poundhotcakes]

true religion is a disgrace to denim, and they actually have the nerve to charge money for that shit. id say evisu too, but their the best thing going when compared to my deep seeded hatred for the hellish incarnations that are true religion.

BALDERDASH.

[Kasper]

Rock & Republic. i don't get why someone would wear jeans "designed" by Posh Spice. i don't think i can think of an uncooler person than Victoria Beckham.

[frideswide]

Agree with mrjameskent 100% : PRPS long on marketing hype, short on actual fit, finish, & quality.

[Guest Fade to Black]

OVERRATED:

True Religion (i never saw any redeeming qualities in these)

Evisu

Red Monkey

Nudie (don't shoot me, i just don't like the back pockets on these and never found any of the washes that impressive)

Prada (most pointless exercise in commercialism ever)

McQ by Alexander McQueen (i liked the jeans he put out for his comeback menswear season but this new line with the ugly back pocket are terrible)

Jil Sander/Louis Vuitton (way overpriced for raw denim - i'm talkin high 300's-mid 400 for non selvedge, non-Japanese denim)

Rogan (poor quality)

I would've said Sevens but I think they look good on girls.

Underrated:

Gucci (don't hear many people talkin about them, but they got some nice jeans I was surprised)

[jwied82]

i personally wouldnt pay anything for PRPS, ever. Maybe 5 dollars, but no more than that. How can they be $300???

maybe they use selvage denim, but that doesnt mean a thing if the jeans dont look and fit good!

I dont understand why some people get so caught up in the quality of denim. i mean, it is an important factor, but not the only factor. Fit and overall look is just as important!

[Ki_Adi_Monkey]

Prps

45 rpm

[DJ_Flame]

45 rpm? what?

Stop smoking that low-grade crack.

and lots of designers (both couture and street) have overpriced denim e.g Prada (boring) and Neighbourhood (garish)

Quote: 45 rpm? what?

I don't like them. For me they are over-rated.

[chaos1124]

BAPE jeans are seriously over hyped and over rated.

I can live with the original retail price tag (around 20,000 yen)

but the resell price on ebay hitting 800 for the star over the zipper

jeans is just crazy.

and I've yet to hear anybody actually satisied with the

quality yet.

[Corbin Law]

most evisus (no 1 adn 2 are very nice)

prada (fdjksdfjklsdjklsdfklj)

True Religion (low quality denim with low quality washes are beyond high quality prices)

RMC (never was a fan)

Rogan (too trousery)

BAPE (i dont want to say just cause its bape, but its hard not to)

Sevens (look good on girls but not guys)

Citizen,

all those brands just like the 2 i just mentioned

Diesel (the kratt is good, so is Fanker, but theres so many zathan and zaf 772's going around its hard to sitll like them)

i see some anti nudie comments, and id have to agree that their washes are pretty lame, but the outcomes of the RRDS/SSDS are fucking beautiful,

chwa?

[polly7]

tsubi they are the most played out shite going.

plus they are at least 3 bills each now here in oz

[aLKayeL]

whahaah I love my TR jeans! I like the flap pockets, especially the coin pocket.

[minya]

FYI:

if this thread turns into "ur opinion sux!!" flamewar it's going to supertrash.

[pokpok]

true religion... i see more ppl wearing true religion than evisu...

is true religion a knockoff of evisu??

Nope. I dont think TR has any vintage cuts. Most of them are boot cuts.

Also the pockets are very unique as in both the back pockets have flaps and buttons! The front coin pocket as a flap and a button as well.

[evisu 2000]

nudies, evisu, prps.

someone once referred to apc as the jcrew of france, but i've never had/tried anything that was apc or jcrew.

[OBC]

Its gotta be Red Monkey. They some wack shit!

nudies overplayed, even in Australia

McEvisu is super overplayed

Bape shouldnt even be making jeans

Tsubi is just for metro fanboys same as Diesel

OBC Cat

[Circa]

Dior, many LVCs, most couture jeans, most fashion denim, Earnest Sewn, Neighborhood, Visvim & Nom de guerre (overpriced), wow almost too many to list.

Nudies are basic jeans, like APCs. Nothing special, but some of the cuts are great/fairly unique, fairly affordable and the jeans tend to be readily available. Evisu puts out some awful looking crap, but they do some great basic pairs as well.

[aipume]

i think a better question to ask is which jeans arent overrated =p

[icegrillz]

true religion

diesel
