10 Best Jeans Under $100?
Who saw this on Yahoo! yesterday? Glam.com listed the top 10 places where you could get jeans for under $100.
Gap Long & Lean, $49.50
Levi’s Eco Collection, $78.00
J. Crew Overdyed Bootcut, $88.00
Paper Denim & Cloth Topaz, $88.00
Roxy Brooks Skinny Stretch Jeans, $44
Cheap Monday Tight Jean, $65
Victoria’s Secret Uplift, $68.00
Blank Skinny Jean, $68
Armani Exchange Rinse Skinny Jean, $98
Blue London Ultra Sexy Skinny Jean, $59.50
I’m sorry, these are still $100 jeans to me. Is the above list a bargain? My lifestyle requires me to keep more dress and pant suits in my closet, and I love to wear them as well, so I don’t buy a lot of jeans. I have just 2 pair. I go to Wal-Mart or wherever and snatch up a pair of jeans for less than $20 bucks, $30-$35 would be my limit if I’m feeling rich and I haven’t felt rich in years! What do $100 jeans do? I feel like Will Smith did in Men In Black, “I make this look good” in my $20 jeans.
Seriously though for those of you who live in denim, what do you pay for a pair of jeans and what is your dollar amount limit?
Here’s a short list of places where you can get jeans for less than $40.
JCPenney
Old Navy Jeans
Sears Jeans
Wal-Mart Jeans
For $100 those jeans better vibrate, on command!

$100? Wow! I look for the under $30 jeans…lol! I do think that victoria secrets line of clothes is under rated. Not the lingerie stuff but there slacks and tops or w/e. I love shopping for my wife.

Yeah they act like that’s some bargain for jeans, it’s not even a suit. I want to know what they do, they must talk to you and tell you how good you look. Maybe they beep when you walk backwards? Tracking device in the zipper? What?

Thanks Rob B
I don’t know, maybe that article was for the rich, but everyday people with $100 jeans? I think not.

I actually love the Gap Long & Lean jeans. They do wonders to my figure. I only buy them when they’re on sale. After moving to New Zealand $100 jeans are a bargain; it’s so expensive here and there’s no GAP.

Wow, at $100, I would have to wear those same jeans every day. My wardrobe would center around those jeans. lol
I had two pair of Gap Jeans and both pair ripped in the knee area…not my fault. I think ripped jeans might be in, but I don’t do fads.

Seems like I always end up paying around $60 for jeans. Much less and they don’t fit well. More and that’s just too spensy for me!
All Adithers last blog post..Five rants and raves (because my opinions are super important)

Hi All Adither, I think hard after $30, only because I cant wear them to work and they would only see action on the weekend, if I go out. I’m sure I can rock a pair of $20 jeans. 100 bucks, man they better come with something else or entertain the heck out of me.
Thanks for stopping by, will check your blog, right…..now.

The way I shop $60 is cheap for a good pair of jeans, $80-100 is around normal.

Lee, cheap jeans make my pocketbook feel relaxed. I don’t wear them everyday so I don’t need to spend a ton of money on them either.
J, 60 is cheap. wow, that’s at least 2 pair, if not 3 pairs of jeans for me.

those are kind of a bargain for good jeans, i usually pay around $40-60 for everyday jeans, and have a couple designers in the collection, for “special occasions” . there is a definite diffrence between $100 jeans and wranglers, material is better, washes are better and fits look better. i cant fit a wrangler jeans unless i buy 2 sizes up, and then its all saggy. pass on those

i think you can wear whatever jeans you like. Personally i go for jeans that are around $100-$200, but its what you like, and how much you want to pay. my parents just buy them, but im not going to lie, they stand up well. i wear my fins by lisa kingsley jeans all the time and they dont look the least bit worn. how many walmart jeans does one go through a year, at $20 a pair? add those up, and you could have gotten a nice pair that lasts way longer

hey stacy. i rather pay 100-200 for a nice pant suit. i have to dress up more than i dress down so that would be like money wasted.
it is a little different too when you spend you own money on thing. if someone was buying me jeans, i wouldn’t mind too much, but me, i start pinching pennies.
