At least I didn't buy these. Even I think these are expensive: http://www.zappos.com/product/7847607/color/288992
That pair of jeans cost more then my whole last order from Evike.   :|

That's a joke, right?
What kind of idiot would pay $300 for a pair of jeans which look just as good as ones I can get for £15? :D
True's are quite expensive, but people buy them because of the design and the brand name.

The design is basic, you're paying for a brand.
Brands don't matter.
Unless you want to be flashy, which I never get..

Also a GIANT "BAH" to brands. :P

The Horse Shoe is a trademark design on True's and yes it is to be flashy, you stand out more. :P

There was a point when I was like that, hell I used to rock out with cargo pants. Then I hit high school and figured out that women like nice clothes. :P
My clothes are nice, and the most expensive non-trenchcoat article of clothing I have was only thirty bucks.

There's nothing about those clothes that make them of higher quality than stuff that's much cheaper.

I'd prefer my personality to speak for me more than my clothes, if you're judging me by my clothes then you don't deserve to know me. :D

I am actually a nice person in...well person. :D

Those pants look exactly like the dozen pairs of pants I have. And those pants cost, at most, fifteen dollars.

Exactly, it's paying for the brand, nothing more.
I don't see the point of following brands or trends in fashion,

I mean sure it looks good but so does a lot of other and cheaper stuff out there, and in all honestly from what I have seen the cheaper stuff tends to last longer for me. :D

Point being? You're paying more money than you need to because of a name?

That's idiocy of the highest order.

EDIT: I mean, I can understand maybe paying, like, ten or fifteen dollars more than normal for a brand, I guess. But three hundred dollars? My trenchcoat is cheaper than that, and it's leather!

Meh. I like nice clothes. Plus have you ever bought designer clothing. There's a lot more there than you think. For guys like me with slender stature designer brands are pretty much the only kind that actually fits properly.

As I said before: My clothes are nice. But they don't cost three hundred freaking dollars.

And no, I've never bought designer clothing. Because I actually value my money, and can't be bothered to throw it away like that.

Indeed, for me I see it as throwing it away.

Also it is not really that difficult to find a cheaper pair  of jeans which will fit a slender guy.
My mate is a stick and he manages to find cheap, great looking jeans anywhere. :)

Most expensive clothing I myself have bought is a pair of converse shoes, they cost me £40.

A £2 pair I found at a store randomly lasted longer before the first BIG wearing happened. :P

Nah, going to totally jump straight to judging. Spending $300 on a NAME, not on any actual intrinsic quality of the item, is idiocy of the highest order. I have paid good money for tailored suits, I have spent a decent chunk of change on well made boots, and god knows I've paid considerable money for a quality gun or blade. But because it has a name on it? Never. That's nothing more than pandering to self-absorbed idiots that judge your worth on your bank account and how 'cool' you are because you're wearing what 'everyone' thinks is the in name.

If a girl requires expensive clothing to love you...she isn't worth a passing glance.

I could wear extremely dingy clothes and my girl would still love me.

I wear shirts that I've had for at least 2 years now and are somewhat faded, and even once wore jeans full of holes (I was saddened that the holes got to be too big...and in bad places...they were so comfortable...) and she thought it was cute.

Who said anything about love. :P I'm just in it to get laid bro. :D

Also, jeans full of holes are fine if their torn properly. Faded shirts make me angry so. :ermm:

My designer jeans have been through way more abuse then most and all of them are still intact. Hell my seven diamond jeans are going on 3 no holes or anything. If you buy the right brands you'll never have issues.

what the gently-carress brand did you try on lol.

If it takes three hundred dollar jeans just to get laid, then it's definitely not worth it.
