I can't stand them and I can hardly find any that aren't stretch.

Does anyone know any good value jeans that don't have any percentage of elastane? If not, which size should I buy? I'm usually a size 9, and a belt help every and then with the stretch jeans, but only to an extent. :(

Should I buy a size 8 with elastane, or just stick with a 9 and wear a good belt with it?

Preferably skinny and bootcut jeans!

I think size always depends greatly on the cut... try them on and see which fits best :)

NB: Stretch jeans stretch a bit after the first few washes, maybe try a size 8 next time? That's if you don't convert completely to non-stretch though :)

I refuse to wear stretch jeans. I have a few pairs of Lee ones that have no stretch. Werent exactly cheap, but they last about 1000 times longer than crappy jeans.

lee stovepipes to be exact.

I just bought the best pair of jeans in existence (for my body type, anyway).
They're the Scarlet jeans by Imitation of Christ, and they're wonderful.
Non-stretch, straight leg, mid rise, great colour.

US$72 at Century 21, NYC.

Woah...


Well actually, they look semi-fug on her, but they suit me well!



Over and out. :)

Haha I was about to say "damn they make her look BIGGG".

But the internet has a way of lying to me. I saw those Lover highwaisted shorts on someone in real life, and she looked great in them (that said, she had great legs).

those jeans are ugly but they would go well with a nice pair of granny cover-all undies

High waisted pants went out of fashion for a reason, :uhhuh:

edit: as did white underwear under black clothing.

but what about black underwear under white clothing :/

Was talking to some americans about how they hated white bras being seen through white clothing, so they decided to go for black instead "because it's closer to skin colour than glaring white". Like, what the hell?!?!?!

EDIT: Not a huge fan of true high-waisted jeans, I just feel that they don't do much for the derriere area :/ Mid-rise sounds a lot better, though?
