best-fitting blue jeans

welfareloser · 08-24-2001, 09:05 PM

just an opinion poll. i have two favorites:

gap (i know, gap is evil, but...) but only this ONE cut: stretch boot cut, ankle length (plenty long on me since i have short legs...)

and both the "molly" and "maggie" cuts by mavi, which is a turkish label - i've only seen it for sale at graffitionline.com, but they are also stretch, and very flattering. they generally only come in 32 length, so i have to hem them.

i used to be a 100% levi's girl, but they just don't fit at 25 the same as they did at 15...

I know what you mean about the gap jeans in the length. I have a 30ish inseam and the length is just right.

But, I have the waist of a size 10 and hips that are 12 so nothing right now fits just right

Oh, except a pair I got from Northern Reflections in December, but didn't they go belly up?

yeah, i got the same thing going on with my waist and hips... (okay, and my butt...) which is why stretch is the ONLY way to go.

Another vote for GAP jeans here ... their ankle-length jeans are the only ones that ever fit me without hemming. Their boot cut jeans are my fave

My only gripe is that GAP jeans don't last for more than a year, and that's if I wash them in the *gentle* cycle. My Levi's were still going strong after five years, but unfortunately, they didn't fit anymore

Am I the only one that goes for cheap Anchor Blue jeans? haha.. I must be out of the times! But.. I like their stretch or hipsters.. I like to show that belly button! Plus.. anchor blues always seem to last long for me.. longer than any Levi's did.

LEVI'S ORIGINAL RED tags only..and of course..Calvin Klein baggies.

i used to wear mens levi's 501s until i found old navy jeans that actually fit me correctly. it was a very happy day.

I have been unable to find any that fit right after having baby #2. I used to get the Northern Reflections jeans too. The gap stretch may be something I'll have to try.

MAVI jeans are the best fitting jeans on earth. they are SO comfortable. when i got my first pair, i wanted to wear them to sleep cause they were so comfy.

but right now, my current fave are low rise stretch jeans from abercrombie & fitch. they are perfect.

GAP jeans fit me great, as well as my favs: Tommy Hillfigger. I've got no hips or butt to fill out CK's... But I think they're cool looking!
