    Who in your opinion makes best men jeans? I like some G-Star, Levis and Nudie jeans. Zara too is alright.

    For hard wearing and denim quality I'd say G-Star, I like Levis too, but they tend to rip after a while, especially in the crotch/ass!

    Levis and Wranglers

    I think it depends what suits you. I love Mustang (are they sold anywhere in Ireland?). They have styles I like and great fit for my figure. Even River Island can be good sometimes. I think it's best to be open minded about brands and try as many as possible and then you see which one suits you best.

    I love GAP jeans, for some reason they just fit me perfect and I love the fact they do widths and lengths really well. Always have great offers on too online and in store! I got two pairs in January for €20, and each cost 74 before sale! Unreal!

    Replay and Diesel are my favourites.

    It really does depend on what suits you.

    I love French Connection. Their jeans always fit me perfect. I hate jeans the rise very low. I like to bend down without people seeing my underwear, thanks!

    Some styles of Topshop are nice.

    Nudie jeans are a great brand. And can't forget the classic Levi's!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 157 ✭✭EarlyStorms


    It depends how much your willing to spend and how serious you take your denim but my favourite brands would be LVC(Levis Vintage) APC, Edwin, Samurai. Albam does great jeans for the money too.

    As others have said, it really depends on what fits! I love the styles in Next but the fit can be hit and miss for me, and I'm pretty tough on jeans so they get worn out! For durability but more plain styles, Gap gets my vote.

    Topshop have been my go too for every type of jean. Also recently got some Miss Selfridge ones and have to say very happy with them. i never liked the fit of Gap jeans.

    Levis jeans are fantastic for lasting, and if you get a good fit... sorted!

    Gap jeans are nice too, but I tend to feel like they aren't worth the price.

    Dunnes do some lovely jeans (surprisingly) but they wouldn't last years or anything. They tend to shrink a little on the first wash too, not as much as Pennies jeans, but after that they are good to go. I have ripped a few pairs on the crotch but when they are only €12 it's not a big deal. If you buy their more expensive jeans, they do last and you'd swear they were more expensive than what you paid!

    Miss Sixty jeans are nice for non curvy ladies - I have a proper arse (hourglass shape) so they don't look very good on me but they do look brill on some other women I know without the ample ass/hips combo. If you have slighter hips, they really are lovely jeans.

    Pennies and Heatons jeans are crap, they shrink and fade with each wash and they are not built to last at all - many a torn ass or crotch has resulted in quite a few binned (not old) jeans.

    (yes, I wear a lot of jeans!)

    Love G-Star but you do really pay for the quality you get.
    I find Awear and Next perfect for jeans for me these days

    Pull and bear and river island for my man.

    Zara are too long for him.

    I have two pairs of Tommy Hilfiger and a pair of Salsa jeans which I love.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,938 ✭✭✭mackg


    I don't really have the budget to go for higher end stuff but I did get one pair of Hilfigers and they were the best fitting jeans I have ever owned.
