$30? Wow. Usually they're $90+

$90?
Even Abercrombie is cheaper than that. Hollister's are all $60 or less. I'd rather spend the extra money to have it done then doing it myself because I really don't have the time. Plus, it'll look better.

it'll look better if you let the holes wear in on their own. Then again, I'm an adult, and have to work in the real world, so i can't wear jeans that look like they should be thrown away most of the time.

My favorite pair of jeans ever, that don't fit anymore have worn from dark, dark blue, to having massively frayed ankles, huge holes, and blood stains from skating. They are awesome, but I almost got fired for wearing them to work a couple times. [shrug]

I don't want to pay for something that is already all the way worn out. It's why stonewashed jeans are dumb too.

'Tis true, 'tis true.

I'll wear any jeans that are comfortable and not too tight whether they have tears or not. I just wouldn't wear jeans with HUGE tears in them. The example pictures are fine though--I like the style.

Actually, I've had a few friends who said they've gotten ripped jeans for over $100, and my friend Steven said he got a pair for $120

It's like people are fighting over the highest price to proove they have the best jeans

It's not like they're using state-of-the art technology to find where the rips look best or anything, but some people make it sound like that

Yeah. My jeans get plenty torn over the course of time anyways

Once I've had a pair of jeans for about a year, they usually have 5 or 6 good tears, just from everyday use.

I probably wouldn't buy torn jeans. First off, I don't wear pants very much. Second, if I do, I usually don't wear jeans. They feel like they're clinging to my legs. I dunno. It's just weird. Or maybe I'm just weird. *Shrugs* But yeah, I most likely wouldn't buy/wear torn jeans.

Yeah, I have a few friends who get jeans from Ruehl and they're crazy expensive but the majority gets $60 or less.

I saw a pair at Urban Outfitters, I think they were called Osaka something, I don't remember. Anyway, they were $385.

OMG I CAN'T IMAGINE PAYING THAT FOR JEANS

I would wear those kinda preppy torn jeans but not those Grunge Wayne's World (Oh yeah excelent) style torn jeans.

I love those kind of jeans. They're really cool. If the torn part of the jeans are like kinda big, you can just swe a really cute fabric inside. I dont own any yet. But I probably will soon.

backupguitar · 02-20-2006, 10:21 AM

I made some yesterday, I have them on right now. It was funny to see my dads reaction when I was making them, he's like "aren't those good jeans?" "not yet!"

ravioli · 03-08-2006, 09:40 PM

woo-hoo. I just made some today. They actually really cute. I even bleach-stained them a bit. They look pretty good.

I find it funny, walking around campus and seeing people wearing torn jeans in -10 degree weather and wind. I mean, my jeans have no holes and I'm still freezing cold.

I was at the college yesterday and saw this girl who had two huge rips in the seat of her pants. It was disgusting. Some rips on the front are okay, not huge gaping ones in the back.
