Just watched a crash segment from levis bmx team and started to wonder what the all round BEST jeans are. my parents sported the red tag back in the day and their companys still kicken? never wore levis but im starting to want to. Im sayin Lucky brand jeans are the shit from what ive seen so far but im still very much a jean noob.

Im always on the lookout top of the line for quality so someone please school me on the best jeans around.

Baggy> tight all day errrrry day ma fuka

Bummer. I feel ya. You've just wanted them all summer haha.

And to whoever said that there are Levi 511 jeans at Macy's, FUCK YOU. I got stoked because I have a $200 gift certificate there and I have nothing to use it on. I went there specifically today to get like 3 pairs of jeans and they have nothing but the lame, boxy, standard cuts. I was severely bummed out.

You can also get them from Farinelli's. The owner, one of probably the ten most knowledgeable people about denim in the country, is a really great guy and provides excellent service.

I have mostly all 511's and a few 514's. I also have some CCS corduroy pants which I like a lot. I rollerblade in 514's usually, and they take a beating when I fall, but they're still good.

While skating? Do you do splits when you fall? I've never ripped the crotch on any of my pants doing anything.

I rock my 501s when Im working or doing stuff outside. They are by far the most rugged jeans I've ever owned. There a jean that in my opinion look really lame until they get worked in and roughed up, a bit of personality you know. Other then that I own some Diesel and Lucky Brand Jeans and I have to say Buffal jeans are shit they look good and feel good imo but every pair I've owned have fallen apart with no wear and tear on them.

Stretch jeans are the best, but I don't know if I have ever seen the 514 in stretch though.  511 is the closest thing I think.

Really? Fuck the Macy around me then. I was so bummed when I got there and all they had were 501's and other random numbers.

I am a big fan of jeans that have a boot cut. Not straight, not slim, and regular is meh. Boot cut is where its at.

Lucky Brand jeans are a trend, do you want to spend $108 or $120 on a pair of jeans? Granted the material is really nice, but you can pop over to Express and have jeans just as soft for $40.

Macy's is hit or miss. For instance some Macy stores carry Lacoste, some do not carry it what so ever. You can't ever rely on them unless you go to fucking Chicago.

Levi's are in Kohls, JC Penny, Sears, all kinds of stores. Hell even Wal-Mart probably...

I know Levi's can run $100+, but they do throw a nice bang for the buck.

Levi's are sick, I wear 567 or something like that. I've also got a bunch of Urban Pipeline jeans, and those fit good to. Aeropostle is a gay store, but their jeans are sick, I got a pair for $20, and thats the only reason, but they are my favorite jeans. And Silver Jeans are nice, but expensive.

I have two pairs of the Janoskis in different washes and they fit great and are durable. Got them off of SAC for $20.

 I also have a pair Volcoms which seem to be holding up pretty well, and my Levis 511s are going strong so far, but I'm not too sure about the fit yet.
