I swear by Wrangler Authentics. The denim is thinner than in most jeans, and moderately stretchy.

I actually have probably four pairs of wranglers in the closet. All these jeans companies come out with dozens of varieties, so I don't know what to call mine, but they are a lighter denim that's dyed so they work as good "dress jeans" without being $100 dress jeans. When I had desk days at work or had to go to various meetings, I often wore them with a sport coat as my office attire. Haven't worn them but a few times since I retired. I should just get them out and turn them into work jeans.

Ah, Mom jeans.  Got it.   =D

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

There is one style of Levi’s that fit me well. My ex-wife bought me 4 pairs from goodwill a few years ago. Otherwise I don’t wear jeans anymore.

I’ve worn Lucky Brand for the last 15 years or so. A couple years ago they moved production from the U.S. to China while raising their price by about 50%. Then, the last pairs i ordered the price has gone up another 20% and they had switched from a metal main button to plastic. So I’m done with them. Now i just have to find another brand that does relaxed fit boot cut.

Well, I guess 16 or so years ago here. I sometimes count THR time from before they kicked us out for stuff like "jeans" and "autoclaving the planet" threads.  :laugh:

     Since I've been slowly adding ( this guys) suggestions to my wardrobe, I've discovered I'm being turned down by a much higher class of women lately. :P
