How about Pepe Jeans from the UK, now based in Spain?
As a college kid, it’s nice to only have to watch like 2 mins of this video and know where to look for good clothing. Saves me money and time! Thanks Antonio!!!
I just bought five pairs of Levi’s 502 Premium Jeans (40% off Black Friday sale) based on your full Levi Jean Guide video and my wardrobe has never been so versatile. I got light, mid, dark, grey, & black washes. I feel like I unlocked some sort of wardrobe cheat code. You were totally right about the 502! Thank you for your help! You made my life so much easier.
I have 5 pairs of 512 Levis. 2230 rupees each from their official website in India. Close to 29 dollars if we convert. All of them 98pc cotton. Anything have a lesser composition of cotton would never last. Thats for sure. Simply because elasticity would tend to get loose leading to lesser durability as time goes by. Jeans should be tough. Simple as that.
502? Damn how many models are there?
Being in shape more important than Jean price point
What I love about this video is that you overview a whole bunch of brands and put them on the map for me. I think more of these kinds of videos would be cool.
Usually $25-$50 range.
P.S. on an unrelated note, I would LOVE a video about fragrances and general guidelines based on the age of the wearer
Check out his library - there are several fragrance videos!
If you're over 30, check out Dunhill Desire. It's very nice. Manly, complex, a little old skool.
You missed some of the best Japanese brands like Pure Blue Japan, Momotaro, Samurai, Iron Heart. Most are in the $200-$300 range. Super high quality amazing denim.
My goto is TCB 50s for everyday wear and if I'm know I'm going to trash a pair of denim via work or such, Levis 501s. I
@@surfingmoose I've got a couple of light weight Pure Blue Japan for the summer and a 19oz pair for the winter.
@@Nicholas-V this is going to be the year I buy 19oz; either Samurai or Iron Heart. My favourite pair are my 13.5 oz Fullcount unsanforized denim. The left leg has a slight twist. Also did not know they were unsanforized when I bought them. Washed them, laid out to dry, and when I put them on, I was damn they shrank. However after about an hour of wearing them, they stretched out a bit and fit beautifully. Lucky.
@@surfingmoose nice, I usually go one wash. I'm not quite brave enough for raw. I think a pair of samurai's where the pattern fades into the back pockets might be my next buy. That or some Okayama Denim collaboration, I love my Aisora's.
I spent $20 recently on a pair of Wranglers. They are fine for me. I can see going higher if you want a better style or quality, but only to a point. Spending $1000 on one pair of pants is insanity.
Where did you get Wranglers for $20?
Walmart
I like George jeans
Love this kind of video, Antonio! Would love to see one like this on OCBDs or other button downs.
love the amount of work you put into these videos!
So happy to see this video. I’ve been wearing Calvin Klein jeans for years and absolutely love them. Definite go to and my favorite brand that hold up well, look good, and make me feel amazing. Sadly, I’ve put on some extra weight the last couple years so I don’t fit into the 36x34 that I used to and they don’t seem to have a good 40x34. Looking to get a pair of Revtown jeans now to use while I focus on my health and get back down into fitting in my CK jeans.
As you often say, it's all about fit. Took me a long time to find a brand that fit like a glove, Mavi. Not cheap, but fit perfectly and are extremely well made.
Thanks Antonio, very thorough. That jacket is kick ass. Well done!
I love my Origin jeans. Buying them as a pair makes them $99 and they are American Made!!! Super stretchy and tons of options.
Jockos brand ?
A word of caution regarding selvedge under $100: I've seen some cheaper brands actually mimicking selvedge by sewing a fabric strip on the inside to make it look like selvedge. The only brands I've seen pulling actual selvedge under $100 are Uniqlo and Unbranded Brand (which for the record is the "low cost" brand of Naked & Famous).
I bought two pairs of Levi's 502 based on your detailed Levi's video. I love them! Great advice. Got them for 50 each as a new subscriber on their site.
I collect Saint Laurent jeans often, and even if it's too expensive, it feels so good to have that brand
By the way, this topic was so interesting!!
american eagle and uniqlo are my go to’s, i have bigger leg to waist ratio so a lot of the times if it fits my waist it’s too tight in the thighs/glutes, the stretch and fit those two have are by far the best i’ve found
For the less tahn $50 crowd: I've had really good luck with Lee Jeans, especially their MVP slim cut style. They are durable and have some stretch.
Also: if you want your jeans to last ALWAYS wash cold and NEVER put them in the dryer!! Hang dry saves the material, stretch, etc.
Just started the video. I ordered 2 pairs of jeans from Duer and am expecting them in the mail today. $129 each… Never tried a pair on before but hopefully I made a good choice!
I’m a 30x32, 6ft and 180lbs. I’m not huge but I do workout, so well fitting jeans are a tough find. I’ve been wearing American Eagle jeans, which I like a lot, but I’m 26 and they’re a little more youthful/distressed than I’d like.
Levi’s are also great value but not enough stretch in the seat for me
I found some absolute steals from the GAP, slim tapered fit, all temp jeans. Absolutely amazing for about $20-$30. Of course It ain’t the best of the best quality, but if you take care of them, and don’t wash them after every wear, you can get whole lot of wears out of them.
I wash my jeans after a week or two of wear. I have cargo work pants that I wash regularly, but my jeans can handle the casual/leisure wear. I have found out that Old Navy jeans wear out faster than Wranglers and Levis, but who cares? I would never entertain the thought of paying more than $50 for a pair of decent jeans. Especially since my waist size fluctuates between 33-34 and I hate wearing belts.
Re: washing in hot water. I never wash jeans or shirts (even tees) in hot water, only cold, and I hang dry. This adds years to their life. I have some incredible athletic fit tees from Banana Republic that I bought in the early 2000’s that I can still wear today!
Buckle does indeed still offer the hem service! Great brand imo; just bought a pair a few months back! Thanks for the video, it was excellent!
I recently got a nice pair of Bonobos on sale for $69. The size was too big so I returned them to the store and got fit advice from a very knowledgeable staff. Found my perfect fit. I’m looking at some new things on sale from their website. 🥳👍
Antonio, as a guy who has been around the denim block a time or three, I can tell you the quest for the perfect fit of jeans is like searching for the holy grail. That said:
Revtown rocks!
I can speak to their jeans' quality, feel, and glute-hugging magnificence -- perfect for my bod. They also have a fantastic selection (great chinos, too!), and I love the pricing.
For higher-end goods, and jeans with a little bit o' stretch, I favor 34 Heritage. Pricey, yes, but worth it. They also look a bit dressier than other elastane-infused styles I've seen. Plus, they hold up better after washing. You can expect to spend between $160.00 and $230.00, depending on the features and, of course, the season.
Agree. I ordered the revtowns black selvage. Most comfortable jeans and fit perfect.
I have several pairs of Diamond Gusset jeans. US made. They appear have been struggling the last few years, I can’t find my size right now but when I could get what I needed their customer service was great. They are comfortable long-lasting and under $100. Worth checking out.
Thanks for sharing Robert!
Texan here, I buy wranglers because it goes with the boots and you can wear them everywhere. I also have owned Levi's and old navy over the years and they are good for extremely casual outings especially if you don't want to wear boots. Stitch fix also makes decent denim pants under their Hawker Rye label, I have a pair of dark black washes and I wear them with tennis or sneakers because of how slim the legs are.
Most of my jeans cost less than $20. I buy pretty much only Levi’s jeans and always on second hand
What's your take on buying a new pair?
@@RealMenRealStyle I think that if it’s a pair that you really like then you shall buy it. But the economic state in my country is very bad at the moment so I try to spend as little as possible👍
Recently bought a pair of Brave Star. They're great. So are the Unbranded.
Bonobos chinos are fantastic.
My Calvin Klein jeans are much too thin, but beautiful and comfortable. Every pair rips at the knee within a year so I reserve them for certain situations.
I still rock some Levi's but mine are all from the late 90s and early 2000s. The denim is really thick.
I think for most people, if you have chinos and other pants, you only need 2-4 pairs of jeans in different shades. Maybe a black, 2-3 blues, and maybe a gray.
Definitely would recommend the dark blue denim.
Do a full leg workout in them to break them in. 100 squats while holding them up so they don't form a sag, same with sitting, get em broken in.
Great video. Great advice.
You can't beat the mass made pants for workwear that's going to get ruined like Levi's/ wrangler/Lee.
My white introduced me to Poshmark and it changed my life you can find premium denim for a fraction of the price and often brand new with tags still on.
At present I've Lee,Lee Cooper, Zara, Pepe jeans,they work pretty well,for the price under 20$ they're more than expected in most of the aspects
I buy the standard jeans in the $20-50 range, and 3 or 4 pairs, in all the common colors (blue, black, white, beige). Good variety.
In India we have many major brands, the go-to brand for my son is Wrangler most of the time which is good for office work too (plain and simple colours), levis on the other hand is good for the fashion statements ps many brands mentioned on this video were tried by him but Wrangler was the go-to for him since grade 9... Best bang for the buck, works for 4+ years. Agree on most of the points told by you here in the video.
Hey Captian, I grew up when jeans were worn for work, not for style. The two brands we bought were Levi's and Wrangler. Denim needs to be strong, especially when working outside. Today I still wear Levi's 501, I like the buttons. Semper Fi Marine.
Awesome! Levi's is definitely a favorite too. Semper Fi!
So, just in case no one is aware... believe it or not, Costco has some crazy tough jeans for men under the Kirkland brand. For an unbelieve $10 a pair. No need for bargains. No need for sales. Regular price $10!!!
And they are 100% cotton. They are really durable jeans. They have average sizes. They are amazing for $10 I own 6 of them. Crease them up and cuddle them. With a white T.
As someone who works in a physically demanding Shipping & Receiving environment, I wear Wranglers and Dickies mostly. On the weekends when dressing up for things like Mass or just going out, I am much more likely to grab some chinos or wool trousers. To me, it just simply isn't desirable to wear even high-end denim in my time off work, so therefore work jeans are what I go for.
I've had only one pair of jeans for years and they were light blue Wranglers. they stretched a bit,
but are durable, comfortable, rugged and except for paint they were always easy to wash.
Great video!
Looking for Black Friday deals..
I found a jean that fits me perfectly, levis 511, nice shape, lots of variety in colours and textures and easy to find on a variety of pre owned outlets.
I got a lot of my jeans from Marshall's. I haven't worn many of them because my Levi's are holding strong, but I really like the comfort of Mavi's, Hudson, and Joe's. They do have elastic (which I personally prefer for comfort and mobility), but they feel so nice, especially for
I for one prefer 7 For All Mankind. Good quality brand, and at my local store they run discounts and $130.00 jeans are on clearance. My go too brand, but you can find some nice stuff on Amazon too.
I recently picked up a pair of jeans from Ministry of Supply and they fit amazingly!
great video. i love Jeans. personally I like the big brands (Levi's, wrangler, Lee,...) i really can recommend mustang jeans over in Europe i think they are German but i love the fit and quality somewhere between a work and style. I usually go for 40$ to 80$ because I actually work in jeans and they will get damaged sooner or later.
I buy gustins for like 100 or 120. They last 4 or 5 years if you take care of them properly, don't dry in the dryer. I don't rinse them either before I wear.
Gotta say, that's an amazing looking leather jacket you've got on Antonio. Great color too.
Wow. So many currently good options.
My dad remembers the super triple Levi's, Wrangler, Lee brands to choose from.
There's a guy, who back in my twenties brought Levi's 501s and Wranglers Jeans only .
I now favor Arizona Jeans to purchase. A great price, fit and pretty good quality.
I've never heard of Buckle but they have a store near me and they still have free hemming. Nice! I'll check them out.
I personally love the Goodfellow dark, slim fit jeans from Target. On sale thy cost around $19,95. You can dress them up or down. I also have a great pair from Banana Republic that set me back $100. They are nice too, but for the price, you cannot beat Goodfellow jeans. BTW, I like their slim fit jeans with elastane.
Nudie Jeans are my favorite. Founded in Gothenburg, Sweden, the city where I currently live. Fantastic quality, great fit and free repairs. If you like, you can trade in your old Nudies and get 20% off on a new pair. They'll repair your old jeans and sell them on at a reasonable price. I recently found a pair of raw Nudies online for the equivalent of roughly 50 bucks, they are my favorite pair of jeans I've ever had and were a fantastic deal!
I have a pair of Duluth Trading jeans and enjoy them. They aren't the more fashionable, but fit well and very comfortable.
Reason I call DTC the working man's style, not too stylish really but extremely comfortable and they last as working pants.
I wear out my work jeans very fast. Old navy was good for those... always found cheap jeans for under 20 bucks, but for dress up, Levi's Silver Tabs.
Big fan of Earnest Sewn. The quality and style is fantastic! Just have to be patient and wait for an infrequent sale.
Zara and ASOS are my casual jeans.
my higher end jeans are my go to, Gstar Raw.
I have a couple of All Saints as well.
Ministry of Supply has been my go to. They fit me perfectly on and only need to have them hemmed. On a similar note Dearborn Denim from Chicago fit well to.
I have a few pairs of Gustin denim and the sizing is odd, at least for me. I typically need to order one size up and then after the first wash have them taken in.
i get jeans from various quality & price points for different occasions:
low-affordable = H&M
mid = Express
upper-mid = Armani Exchange
upper = Emporio Armani
(i know Armani isn't the best quality, but he's my fave designer since the Untouchables film 😆)
that being said, never pay retail for clothes... i always wait until clothes are discounted at least 40% off
Do you use something like honey at all to get discounts?
@@D_Jilla yeah, i use honey and capital one shopping... other options are: rakuten, ibotta, and retailmenot
@@parisloyo Retailmenot is amazing, and I also find good deals on Coupon Cabin. The other coupon sites aren't nearly as reliable. For automatic discounts, I prefer Capitol One; Rakuten has often stiffed me when I use a coupon code when ordering. Evidently, some retailers won't recognize the Rakuten discount if an additional discount is given. I haven't had that trouble with Cap1.
Are you in my head? This is the exact review I was thinking of. I'm in the market for a pair of jeans.
I bought Levi 511s per yr video.
I also bought Georges...The George material is thin BUT the fit is incredible.
I got a pair of unbranded just before the summer, it was my first foray into raw denim. Most of the jeans I have owned have been cheapo, lightweight, jeans with elastic in them (my last jeans were Old Navy in fact). My unbranded are 100% cotton, 14.5 ounce denim and the first few weeks I was wearing them I felt like I have made a mistake buying these expensive, stiff, heavy jeans. But now a few months later they are awesome, I have no regrets. I in fact just picked up another pair of expensive raw denim jeans from their sister company Naked and Famous. Others mileage may vary.
Great topic! I use to buy Abercrombie 10 years ago. Then they went cheap, and lost me.
I need to find some button fly decent quality denim.
jeans. i am happy with lee and calvin. i’m short and older. your haircut is good on you in this video
i love raw denim. My first lesson in clothing quality came from my grandfather. He had old pants that didnt fit him, but still in great condition. That old denim was way better than modern options.
I like Lee and Dickies, it's easy to find cheap jeans that fit me well and hold up. One day, I'd like to buy an expensive pair for dressing up, but I am on a budget.
I've tried clothing from The Goodfellows brand at Target; I find their pants don't really fit my body type (chubby, tall but with short limbs- I'm 6'2" with a 29 inch inseam and 41" waist), but their shirts fit me really well. They don't hold up for a long time, but I've had people compliment my $10 t-shirts and $15 casual button-ups from that line.
That jacket tho!! 🔥🔥🔥
Personally I've had a phenomenal experience with the Joseph Abboud brand jeans (I purchase Mine through Mens Wearhouse). For the $100+ price point (though they run sales and clearance all the time and they can easily be picked up for around $50 a pop.
I prefer a slimmer fit with some stretch, and I've the same 3 pair for years now, with only minimal fade on the dark wash.
I even stated using a light wash pair as work jeans and they just won't quit!!
Cannot recommend enough.
A great place to score some Levi's is Kohls (or similar retailer.) Especially around back-to-school time, you can walk in there with some free coupons or hit a BOGO Free or 50% off sale and clean house.
I have one pair of grey Tommy Hilfiger jeans and I love them. Though they are very expensive.
Levi's are my go-to. The 511's fit perfectly
Levi 501 and Wrangler 13MWZ are the only ones a wear. But now a pair of selvedge jeans would be nice.
I'm down to my last two pair of Ben Davis.
Bought them in my late 20's early 30's
Still fit still wear them. I wish I could get new ones.classic🖖
Hey Antonio, I recently got into Duer jeans. More specifically, interested in their cold weather jeans. What's your take on them? Take care!
Old navy slim fit jeans are my favorite. Affordable and decent quality.
Living in the south I get True Craft denim from Belk for $25-$30 a pop in a great variety and they last for years
The best-looking and most comfortable jeans I've found is Duluth Tradings' Ballroom jeans. They are the *chefs kiss* for $70
Cycled through a few different brands before I finally settled on Levi's. My first pair of 559s were the softest most comfortable jeans I've worn in my life.
Where did you get that jacket?
Only kinda agree on the Ralph Lauren jeans, yes you're paying a bit for the brand but they're Alsop the very best fit slim jeans I've ever found and they're my go-to. Never pay full price, check their outlet stores or wait for a sale at like Macy's.
Levis 501s on sale for $50, there is no other.
(Although I cheated and got some Wrangler dark stretch at WalMart for $20 which fit me like a glove, perfect waist and perfect length, so no tailoring. Drove around Vancouver that evening and bought every pair in my size from every store, 12 in total.)
When you find something that fits, buy multiples of that item.
For work wear I like Roundhouse Jeans. For a casual jeans, I like All American Jeans. They used to be a great be value but both just had price increases putting them in the $60-75 category. Even at the new prices I still think they are fairly valued (assuming RH can ship it on time, my one gripe about them). Neither may work for those really into fashion, but between both brands, they work for me purposes of hard manual labor or date night with the wife.
My signature pair of jeans are a pair of true religions that I managed to find at a thrift shop, barely used, at about $20. They fit me perfectly and they work amazingly for when I need to go out for social events, since I refuse to wear them for work (team sweatpants!)
I started paying a little more for jeans so I started buying Calvin Klein jeans and I love them especially the slim fit really comfortable and it’s seems like if they were tailored especially for me.
I buy used Diesel Jeans from ebay. There's a particular style which fits me very well. Usually pay around £30. They're immaculate, probably worn once! They retail over £120 a pair.
Hey Antonio you should have mentioned about gas jeans wonderful pair and good quality
I really like your video. What are your thoughts about Eddie Bauer jeans? I’ve been buying them for over 20 years, never disappointed. Good price/quality, decent style.
The most comfortable jeans I have are from Old Navy and they also fit me well.
Being a bigger guy, there are very few brands that I like and fit me well. Just about every pair in my closet is from Lucky Brand. They've changed over the years, but their fit works for me. Even better if you can thrift a vintage pair.
My biggest issue is that I'm in my 60s and hate Low Rise Jeans. I wear Old Navy a lot because they have Slim Fit with Mid Rise.
Can definitely recommend American Eagle. Great fit for the price, wear them everyday.
There are some great made in America jeans for $50 bucks in Chicago. Place is called Dearborn Denim they’ve got stretch and non stretch and they weave their own denim and make their own jeans. I’ve got two pairs of stretch jeans and I where them almost every day
Mavi jeans have a nice fit. Run around $100 but at Norstrom's rack $60
WOW interesting subject in my case I just spend around $100 or less i don't look for a specific brand but for example sometimes you can find deals on Nordstrom rack diesel, citizens,seven for all mankind around $60 and i have another brand in mind buffalo but it'll depend about what are you looking for i just like straight fit jeans .
Antonio, please tell me where you got that red leather jacket.? It’s Gorgeous!
I’ll prob spend up to $150 - $200 on a pair. I always look at the materials, construction, where it’s made, etc. So if it’s a nice medium-heavyweight 100% cotton selvedge pair made in the USA, and it doesn’t have a bunch of tacky branding/logos, I’ll prob drop $200 on them.
Filson are a great American made jean. Spendy, but worth it
As a Detroit born native and former resident I’m glad to so Detroit Denim on here.
I usually spend like $12 to $20 on jeans and most recently bought George jeans and they were definitely comfortable but like you said with having that stretch, the pants do fade quickly even when turning them inside out. I used to get Arizona jeans for $30 and those lasted for me for like 20 years before needing to get replaced. I hate the pockets though as my keys and phone would fall out. It's interesting you mentioned jeans as my nephew who is in high school wants $60 jeans from Pac Sun. He has like two pairs and the color has quickly faded after him washing it. For $60 I wouldn't buy him jeans especially skinny jeans. I never spend that much one jeans as I like to have like 10 jeans . Though I am sure I can find him a better brand for like $20 and get him 3 pairs for $60.
i would say somewhere around 20-75 i guess 🤔.... nice video Bro.... love your videos 😍😍😍
Thank you so much 😀
I like your videos (subscribed). I think your style takes a hit when you stand on the turntable (reminds me of cake decorating). I think it would be better to walk around naturally in front of the camera when modelling an outfit.
Great vidéo , hey antionio can u talk once at some européenne brand like penni parma or massimo dutti or devred its verry interssting cause im living in algeria and there is many amrican brand they we dont have in my country
There are tons of denim brands out there that are less well known, but have great cuts and fabrics with a lot of character. (Slub and texture that you won't get from a modern loom)
Anyone watching this video should at least check out Blue Owl, Selfedge, Tate & Yoko, Nudie Jeans, Benzak, Mister Freedom etc. to see some of the stuff I'm talking about.
I have had good results with "Texas Jeans". Good quality, good fit, comfortable, under $50 a pair, made in the USA. Never had a complaint over the past 10 plus years.
I buy selvedge denim from Bravestar. Awesome value for about $100.
Walmart and Target sell their own Levis brand. Target sell Denizen Levis for about $25 and Walmart sells Signature Levis for about $20. I have from both stores specially the slim fit. Don’t know if the prices are still the same. I also have about three of four pairs of Levis Silver Tab which they made and sold for a short time in mint condition. Maybe one day they will have some value. To close the comment Walmart also sells Lee which is one of the best fitting jeans for me.
