Jeans Question

[TXShooter]

What do some of you guys on here with big legs buy for jeans? I like to buy nicer jeans like diesel and true religion from places like Nordstroms. I have 26 inch thighs and 34 waist. Its hard to find a nice pair of jeans that can accomodate my bigger ass and thighs and look somewhat trendy. I have found diesels to be my favorite. But after time, I always rip them in the same spot just below the crotch.

Its getting old spending a couple hundred dollars on a pair of jeans just to have them rip where your thighs are the biggest. Does anyone on here know a certain brand/style that seems to fit us bigger guys better rather than these little crack addicts they seem to make most jeans for?

Re: Jeans Question

how tall are you? I'm 5'8" and I wear a 36" waist and a 30" inseam. Hard to find any bigger pants in the waist than that when your that short.

Re: Jeans Question

Yeah, I went up to a 36" too but most jeans still don't fit. I typically wear carpenter jeans because of the room but I have a couple pair of Axis (I think that's what they are called) that I found at Kohl's. I've used to wear GAP's Wide Leg or Big Leg but they discontinued it. I've tried all their other jeans, even their so called extra baggy and they are way too tight in the thighs for me. I have literally tried almost every type of jean because I was down to my last pair of GAP jeans and when I found these Axis jeans I was very happy. I can't tell you anything about the longevity of them yet because I've only had them for a few months but they fit great and they look good when you want to wear something nicer with them. When I find a pair of jeans that fit right, I will buy like 5 or 6 pairs and they will usually last me 4-5 years. But, I waited too long to get more of the GAP jeans and missed out. Also, with jeans, I never buy expensive jeans, I just don't care about name brand. I buy what fits right and looks good on me and that's all I care about. If Levi's made a jean that fit me, I'd get those, but they don't.

Re: Jeans Question

Levi's 560! They fit me the best.
Lots of room in the legs and seat.

Re: Jeans Question

If you can't fit your legs and butt in trendy jeans may I suggest an alternaitve? It gets no trendier!

Re: Jeans Question

Old Navy loose fit is better than most, but I don't know about the kind you'd buy at Nordstroms. I do know that Nordstroms makes nice fitted shirts for about the same price as places like Banana Republic - where I buy some of my shirts for work. I do spend good money on shirts because I need them for work, but I generally never spend that much for jeans.

Re: Jeans Question

How could I have forgotten about the Hammer Pants?!? LOL.

Yeah, Gap used to be the way to go for Jeans. I've tried buying the bigger size, but then it just looks funny all bunched up on the waist.

Diesels if anyone is interested seem to have the most room and last the longest, but still eventually rip in that spot. I do wear the hell out of them.

I just hope my legs don't get any bigger, I like the size they are now. But they seem to explode by just me looking at a barbell. I wish my arms would be that way instead :-/
