These are literally the highest quality jeans on the market. It's one of those buy once, cry once situations. Long-term, you'll be saving since you won't be having to buy a new pair of low quality jeans every few years.

no.

A pair of $60 jeans lasts me years. there's nothing but fashion bullshit to it at this level.

also it's jeans, cry once?

how about don't cry over fucking clothing

I've had a few pairs that I'd still be wearing if they still fit. Meanwhile, I've destroyed several cheaper pairs from other brands.

Love Vime's Boot's theory, but I'm wearing $18 Urban Star Jeans from Costco, at work, in an industrial facility, that are over 5 years old. There needs to be a serious step up in quality to justify $165.
