Redpill me on jeans, misc

On a 20lb de-bloat right now, and I am halfway through it at an even 10lbs lost.

My jeans are all 34x30s - hell of a ratio, huh? - and they're baggy as fuk cause I lost 2 inches off the waist. So they're going to need replaced. If not now, in 2 or 3 months when I hit goal weight.

So first I've got to get jeanpilled. Misc pls halp.

-Levi's are a bunch of phucking leftist ****s, phuck them, not buying.

-Is Carhartt actually good for jeans, or is it some tradie LARP stuff?

-Are Target jeans fine for going cheap?

-I am ignorant of fashion brands... are any of them worth the money?

What are your current jeans with the 30 inseam?

I find it hard to find that kind of ratio

I never found the brands at Target to feel that great (something is always a little off about them).

If you go cheap there are certain wrangler cuts that looks good. Expensive jeans are a complete waste of money unless you get true denim. Then you have to break them in etc.

Carhartt look at feel ok. I use Duluth because I need the gusset. No way could I go back to jeans without them now.

Barbell apparel is sick for jeans. Get ‘em when they’re on sale and they’re like $100

I was looking into these awhile back. A lot of people say they aren't really rough jeans but rather "jeggings" so I'm reluctant to try something that may not be durable

30” inseam? Got dayum bruh. I’m not even 6’0” and have a 35” inseam.

I always let my girlfriends or wife buy my clothes so I wish I had more advice to offer. I did buy a pair of Lee jeans from Fred Meyer (yes poverty, I know) and they fit really well. But they’re already falling apart after about a year, and they weren’t super cheap considering the H&M quality.

what style? I usually wear straight-legged but I also heard their styles are usually more fitted and run small. Do you need to size up?

I get the Straight Athletic Fit in 32/34. They shrink a little so 34 works well.

Also the recon joggers are sick, I have 3-4 pairs.

You know what's worse? My dad is 5'8" and wears a 28" inseam. Those are the genetics I'm working with (dude was a stud wrestler though).

PNW crew, so I know those Fred Meyer feels.

Target brand. I had the same problem you did, it's tough to find anything.

My original plan was just to pick up some jeans at Goodwill, but their 30" mega-manlet section was basically fukking empty lol. Pry not even a dozen pairs of pants there total, and nothing in my waist. Strong WTF... I thought San Diego was loaded with short Mexicans.

I had a pair of carhartt jeans, i used them for work. Surprisingly, really nice jeans. Fit well and they lasted a long time even with heavy abuse.
Hey gideon! Ive been looking at your wall, its pretty frickin sickening bro.

Levi's are gay now?

That's a shame because their 501 shrink to fit are the goat jeans.
A young bull and an old bull were standing atop a hill looking at a bunch of heifers in a field below.

The young bull says "Let's run down this hill and fuk one of those heifers."

The old bull replies "No. Let's walk down there, and fuk them all."

Owning more than 1 or 2 pairs of jeans past 25 is cringe. Wear slacks like an adult.

I've measured my waist to buy fitting jeans but the sizes they list are way too big.

I realized that there is this thing called "vanity sizing" where the actual sizes are "inflated" to compensate for the obesity epidemic.
Vanity sizing, or size inflation, is the phenomenon of ready-to-wear clothing of the same nominal size becoming bigger in physical size over time. This has been documented primarily in the United States and the United Kingdom. The use of US standard clothing sizes by manufacturers as the official guidelines for clothing sizes was abandoned in 1983. In the United States, although clothing size standards exist (i.e., ASTM), most companies do not use them any longer.
I don't think it matters a whole lot who the company is but if you want solid work jeans would just make sure they fit well.
Beans. Cleans. Gasoline.

I have rustler rigid jeans I picked up for like $14, I just had to get them narrowed as they were sort of baggy. They look as good as any expensive jeans I've owned.

You have to get them online, all the ones in-store are prewashed.

I found out about these while living in Wyoming, they were the most popular jeans among ranchers other than classic wranglers.
