Best place to go for skinny jeans?

    Hi,

    I usually wear slim fit jeans, but not skinny skinny. Would like to try out a pair and see what they're like, but I DON'T want to break the bank.

    A m8 of mine told me "Nudie" did the best skinny/slim jeans around, but they're 110 in BT2's! Was looking for a pair that were decent enough quality, not Pennys or Dunnes now or anything like that... but would only be willing to spend 60, MAYBE 70 absolute max on them. There's a high chance that I'll wear them once, hate them, then leave them in the waredrobe for a few months!

    Help appreciated. P.S. I know Topmans prob gonna get a mention. What are they like for jeans? Only experiance I have of them is when a m8 of mine told me he got a pair there and they fell apart in no time.

    Help appreciated. I'm a guy btw in case you didn't know (maninblack) ;)

    New Look usually have them, and their jeans are brilliant

    ugh, the most disgusting thing on the market. Everyone is wearing them! Try a new trend and wear tights. They'll do the job!

    Heya, Cheap Monday in Urban Outfitters are meant to be great, they're very skinny and come in lots of colours! The guy who runs the company wants them to be very affordable but with the best fit and fabric, kind of as a protest to the more expensive hyped-up brands (he used to design for Acne or someone like that). They cost about €50 so they're not too harsh on the pocket.

    Yes, absolutely great jeans. Both my male and female friends wear them. I get mine form http://caliroots.com/default.asp?tab=7 If you're a slim guy you could even wear the girls ones.

    :eek:

    They show every lump and bump of a model that probably has a BMI of about 15!!!!!!!!!! WHY?! Why do that? Do they look different in reality or something cos from those photos, you might as well just paint your legs!

    Your friend's right about topshop.
    Rubbish quality.

    Hey thanks for the replies, I bought a pair of Nudie Jeans today. Must have tried on every brand and every fit in BT2's, urban outfitters and topman.

    Cheap Mondays are just TOO skinny for me. I dont like where they get to the uncomfortable stage where you cant even bend your knees!

    Said I wasn't going to spend this much (they were 108 euro!!!) and I had to eat into the ATM to get them, but they just fit like a glove and are so comfortable!!

    ones i get:

    They look great. I'm trying to make my brother convert to the skinny side but I'm having trouble!

    Why are skinny jeans only coming into fashion now? Few years ago in England they were huge and I recieved torrents of abuse for even mentioning them on here, now they're finally becoming popular in Ireland as they die in popularity everywhere else? I'm buying fitted jeans with a high hem, they seem to be more on point at the moment. Jeans are something for me that I have to get right, nothing wrong with spending over 100 if the fit is perfect and you'll lots of wear out of them

    totally agree.
    i find it extremely hard to find jeans that fit cos i have no hips and they just sag !
    i got my first pair yeaaaaaars ago. i remember being embarassed wearing them bcos nobody did. and i got weird looks and everything! now even mums are wearing them. . nothing against mums but skinny jeans-overkill at this stage. BUT i do still wear them haha or boyfriend jeans. Bootleg jeans just seem kinda old when u try them on?
    Although, i LOVE a man in skinny jeans. maninblack those look hot!
